October 19, 2010 – Dow remains on track for 11,235 to 11,296 by Election Day.

The yield on the 10-Year note held this week’s value level at 2.620 then declined back below my
monthly pivot at 2.555, so the potential is strength towards my quarterly and semiannual risky
levels at 2.265 and 2.249. Gold tested my weekly risky level at $1373.6, which is now a pivot as
my monthly pivot at $1343.7 becomes a value level. Crude oil rebounded above this week’s
pivot at $82.38, but stayed shy of my semiannual pivot at $83.94 and my monthly risky level at
$84.74. The euro is trying to achieve this week’s risky level at 1.4074. The Dow wants to test my
zone of risky levels; 11,229 weekly, 11,235 annual and 11,296 semiannual. The National
Association of Home Builders Housing Market Index remains subdued at 16 up from 13.
10-Year Note – (2.569) Weekly, annual and annual value levels are 2.620, 2.813 and 2.999 with a
monthly pivot at 2.555, and daily, quarterly and semiannual risky levels at 2.427, 2.265 and 2.249.

11,229, 11,235, 11,290 and 11,296. My annual risky level at 11,235 was tested at the April 26th
high of 11,258.01.

Home Builders Remain Pessimistic as the NAHB Housing Market Index moves up to 16 from 13 in
October. While an improvement this index needs to read 50 to be considered neutral. High
unemployment, slow job growth and tight credit continue to prevent Americans from buying new
homes. The NAHB describes the index as showing “flickers of interest among potential buyers.” The
NAHB most significant concern it the fact that most builders have no access to credit for building
homes, which means that if pent-up demand develops builders will not have the inventory. The other
roadblock is that potential buyers are having difficulty in qualifying for mortgages.

My Fearless Prediction of the Week - I still forecast “Dow 8,500 before Dow 11,500” unless there’s a
Dow Theory Buy Signal. Near Term I have been projecting Dow 11,235 by Election Day on a
Republican victory and QE2 by the Fed. A Dow Theory Buy Signal occurs with Dow Transports closing
above its May 3rd closing high at 4,806.1, and then the Dow Industrials closing above its April 26th
closing high at 11,205.03.
That’s today’s Four in Four. Have a great day.
