The stock market saw another week of heavy selling, taking multiple indexes down to extreme levels, with liquidation type selling across the board, even in previous safe havens such as treasuries and spot gold. Although there was some respite with a strong relief rally on Friday at the end of the day, recovering around 10% in some of the major indexes.

However, we remain in a Stage 4 downtrend (for an explanation of the four Stages – see Stan Weinstein's classic book or visit the forum on stageanalysis.net, which has numerous examples to help learn the method), with only 7% of the stocks in the NYSE and 12% of stocks in the Nasdaq trading above their 200 day moving average, and only around 5% trading above their short term 50 day moving average.

The video also highlights some longer term charts, with 20 year charts of the NYSE Bullish Percent Index & Percentage of Stocks Above Their 200, 150 & 50 Day Moving Averages. Plus the 20 year chart of the US New Highs - New Lows to help give some context to where we are in comparison to other periods.

We may have put in a low, but also we might not have yet. As the extreme levels we are seeing in some of the market breadth charts were only seen around the end months of 2008. Which was a swing low, but not the ultimate low, which didn't come until 3 or 4 months later in March 2009. So although we've gotten to these breadth extremes much faster. We are probably in for a volatile ride for a while yet, with over 90% of stocks in Stage 4, as of this week, even with the bounce on Friday.
