October is set to treat investors, trick pundits
In looking at start the start of October, we entered a period which began under a great deal of negative sentiment thanks to the volatility of the last few months and the financial media which always seem ready to trot out annual comparisons to October 1987 or various analogs to the 1929 stock market crash. We see this as a very bullish backdrop from a contrarian point of view. In fact, we are already seeing increasingly bullish signs across North American financial markets. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrials have thumbed their noses at the mainstream media as they have risen 5% in the last week alone, one of the best starts to October ever!
