Elliott Wave analysis: S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, DAX 40, FTSE 100 and ASX200 [Video]

The Federal Reserve lowered interest rates by a quarter point, triggering a sharp market drop. Elliott Wave analysis now hinges on whether this initial decline forms a three-wave correction or a five-wave impulsive move. If it’s impulsive, we’d expect a corrective rally followed by another five-wave decline, confirming that Primary Wave 4) is underway.

Elliott wave outlook:

  • S&P 500 (SPX): Wave v) of 3 of (A) of 4)
  • NASDAQ 100 (NDX): Wave v) of 3 of (A) of 4)
  • DAX 40 (DAX): Potentially completed Primary Wave 3) top
  • FTSE 100 (UK100): Wave 4) in progress
  • S&P/ASX 200 (XJO): Wave v) of 3 of (A)
