The S&P 500 index and German DAX are in holding mode with the uncertainty of Greek resolution. Following the warning sign we observed from a dangerous ending diagonal pattern on the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite index, the Chinese stock market had a 20% plunge over the last two weeks and it could decline more. The broad stock market is projected to be in a short-term neutral time-window until 7/2/2015.

The Leading-Wave Index (LWX) is Nu Yu’s proprietary leading indicator for US equity market. LWX>+1 indicates bullish (green); LWX< -1 indicates bearish (red); The LWX between +1 and -1 indicates neutral (yellow).

The Broad Market Instability Index (BIX), measured from over 8000 U.S. stocks, closed at 46 on 6/26/2015 (up from 35 the previous week) which is above the panic threshold level of 41 and indicates a bearish market. The market has become weaker than expected. Based on the forecast of LWX, the broad stock market is in a short-term neutral time-window until 7/2/2015 (see the second table above).

The daily chart below has the Wilshire 5000 index with both the BIX and the Momentum indicators. The current market status is summarized as follows:

The following table is the percentage change of sectors and major market indexes against the 89-day exponential moving average (EMA89). The Wilshire 5000 index, as an average or a benchmark of the total market, is 0.55% above the EMA89. Outperforming sectors are Biotech (5.12%), Banks (4.86%), and Home Construction (4.79%). Underperforming sectors are Precious Metals (-7.28%), Utilities (-4.87%), and Real Estate (-4.51%).

Currently the S&P 500 index is in primary impulse wave [5]. Ideally primary wave [5] contains an intermediate (1)–(2)–(3)–(4)–(5) sub-wave structure. This primary fifth wave is the last up leg of the entail bull market started from 2009, and we gradually approach the end of this last up leg before the next market collapse. Any further upside push will make a major top of the market.

Primary wave [5] has been confined in a rising wedge for over 6 months. This rising wedge is also characterized as a Ending Diagonal. Since the beginning of March, it has been in corrective intermediate wave (4) with a flat correction combining two a-b-c corrective wave sequences. Corrective intermediate wave (4) ended in the middle of June. Now it is in upward intermediate wave (5).

In the following weekly chart, the German DAX index has been in impulse primary wave [5] since mid October of last year. Primary wave [5] has an intermediate (1)–(2)–(3)–(4)–(5) five-wave sequence. Now it is in upward intermediate wave (5).

In the weekly chart, the India Bombay Stock Exchange 30 Sensex index is forming a Bump-and-Run Reversal Top pattern. Since March of 2014, the Bombay index has been in the Bump phase with a sharp trendline as excessive speculation drives prices up steeply. Prices reached a bump height with three times the lead-in height. But this year the index broke below the bump trendline, and it signaled a bearish reversal. The downside risk is very high for the index once prices break blow the 2nd parallel line.

The Chinese stock market was in a powerful bull market from last July to the middle of this month, and made a 7-year high since 2008. During last 11 months, the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite index was in primary wave [1] which contains an intermediate (1)–(2)–(3)–(4)–(5) five-wave sequence.

Since the beginning of this year, the index has been in intermediate wave (5). Intermediate wave (5) is the last up leg of primary wave [1]. Also this intermediate wave became a fifth-wave extension within a rising wedge or an ending diagonal which flashed a warning sign for a dramatic reversal ahead.

One week ago, the Shanghai index had a sharp turnaround and broke below the lower boundary of the ending diagonal. Both intermediate wave (5) and primary wave [1] have ended. Currently the Shanghai index is in primary wave [2] which is a major correction. Primary wave [2] will have an intermediate (A)–(B)–(C) corrective-wave sequence. Now it is in the first downward wave with wave (A) of this intermediate (A)–(B)–(C) correction.

A downside price target for corrective primary wave [2] is projected at 3600 based on a typical 50% retracement of primary wave [1].

The table below is the percentage change of major global stock market indexes against the 89-day exponential moving average (EMA89). Currently Japanese market is outperforming. The Russian market is underperforming.

In the following weekly chart, the U.S. dollar is forming a Bump-and-Run Reversal Top pattern. Prices have advanced above the 1st parallel line with a deep slope since late last year. Now prices have broken below both the second parallel line and the bump trendline with a bearish reversal.

The 30-year U.S. treasury bond index formed a 9-month ascending broadening wedge. Prices have broken blow the lower boundary of the wedge. The downside price target is projected at 136.

The gold index is forming a 5-month triangle pattern. Next move depends on the direction of a breakout from the triangle.
