Stocks Poised for Culminating Plunge into April 3 – 7th! 17-Year Cycle Nearing Fulfillment.
04/02/25 – “The Gauntlet
INSIIDE Track has often described the first ‘month’ of the Natural Year (~March 19th – April 19th) as a time of great sacrifice. It has been discussed with respect to all of the battles and attacks that coincide – often culminating in the days surrounding the Date of Aggression (April 19th). This period – the start of Spring – is described in the Old Testament as ‘the time when kings went off to war’.
It appears 2025 is repeating the pattern.
As of today, the long-awaited gauntlet has been thrown down and a modern-day war – a trade war – has been initiated (or escalated). The question for the markets is now a simple one:
Will the markets prefer certainty over uncertainty?
Is the newly-revealed certainty better or worse than the fears generated in the midst of prior uncertainty?
Is this the lesser of two evils… or the greater?
The next 1 – 2 days could go a long way in revealing how the markets will digest this news…
Stock Indices reversed lower on March 26th – after fulfilling a convergence of intermediate cycles that included a ~17-week/~4-month high-high-high-(high; Mar 24 – 28) Cycle Progression and the midpoint of an over-over-arching ~35-week/~8-month high-high-high-(high; Nov 25 – 29, ‘24) Cycle Progression – and dove into month end.
That was reinforced by the DJIA bouncing right to its multi-week upside target at 42,801 – 42,907/DJIA (50% rebound, weekly LHR, weekly 21 Low MAC & weekly 2CR) with most indexes bouncing to their declining daily 21 High MACs and reversing lower – projecting one more decline before an intermediate low could become more likely.
After dropping into month-end, stock indexes rallied to weekly resistance levels leading into mid-week… and the announcement of massive trade tariffs.
That combination reinforced the potential for a final spike low in early-April, with stock indices initially targeting [reserved for subscribers].” TRADING INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK
Stock Indexes peaked on March 25/26th – during multi-week & multi-month cycle highs and right at pivotal 1 – 2 week resistance levels – and are fulfilling projections for an accelerated spike low into early-April ’25 (April 3, 4 & 7th possess greatest synergy of cycles for completing 20 – 30% projected plunges). This is confirmation of a broader stock market (seismic) shift – validating weekly trend and multi-month 4-Shadow signals triggered in January and corresponding sell signals triggered on/after January 22/23rd. A drop into early-April could/should complete this initial 17-Year Cycle decline and fulfill what has been detailed in Weekly Re-Lay analysis:
