Our Jiseki Time cycles are seasonal patterns of strength or weakness in assets. They are derived from percentile rankings from 1 to 100. The higher the percentile more the chance for an asset to weaken and worst the ranking, better the chance for the respective asset to outperform. 100 is top relative performance and 1 is worst performance. The idea is that performance is cyclical. A top performer will underperform in future and vice versa. A top relative performer is also the worst value pick and the top relative underperformer is the best value pick. Jiseki is another name for Performance cycles, time triads and time fractals. The signals are illustrated as a running portfolio and as Jiseki Indices. These signals can be used by fund managers for relative allocations, traders for leverage bets and high net worth clients for selective trades.

Jiseki Interpretation. Signals are interpreted as crossovers between various Jiseki Cycles. All three Jiseki cycles (Jiseki 1,2 and 3) depict different time frames. Example: An asset is ranked above 80 percentile and all the three Jiseki cycles are pointing lower, this suggests a running SHORT SIGNAL. Our Jiseki Indices use different kind of exits based on price and Jiseki Cycles. We have color coded the (Jiseki 1>Jiseki 2) SHORT zones with brown sandy (burlywood) and grey (Jiseki 1>Jiseki2) for LONG SIGNALS.

The Divergence Analysis

Despite all the market knowledge, we are still so far away from asking very basic questions about market and what makes it work. Market divergence in very generic terms means the difference between the returns of two sector peers, between two sector indices, intra-market or inter-market difference. We have occasionally talked about divergence, but today we are looking at the Indian sectoral divergence comprehensively.

What did we do? We took the Indian sectoral Indices and benchmarked it vs. CNX 100. Why did we take CNX100? CNX 100 is a broad market index and hence the least volatile compared to other sectoral indices. Why were we interested to compare sector returns with the broad market index?

What is divergence?

How can you analyze it?

How much percentage can two sector peers diverge?

How is divergence connected to stock selection and sector selection?

Which is the most diverged sector in India?

Does divergence means outperformance or underperformance?

What is divergence suggesting about market direction?

The temporal value

 

Societal quest for value is continuous, repetitive, similar, connected with cooperation and patterned.

I don’t know who is better, Clint Eastwood or Rajkumar Hirani. I saw two back to back films, one was ‘3 idiots’ on Thursday and Friday it was ‘J Edgar’. Though this non confirms my (self proclaimed) film buff status, I took a while to catch up on the top grossing cinema creations. Blockbuster or award winning films force you to think, relate and see patterns irrespective of the settings, regional or global.

The search or quest for value has started to emerge out of the societal expression, be it films, books or protests. Whether it was Chetan Bhagat’s famed work, a Bollywood adaptation or Eastwood and DiCaprio’s attempt to educate Americans and the world about the workings of FBI and science of investigative innovations, there is a visible creative attempt to cherish the value of history and acknowledge purposeful life over corporate rat race.

The continuity of value…Value expressions have continuity because revolutions happen, creative expressions are awarded and history prospers, as we keep revisiting it. A failed present and murky future outlook keeps sending the society back to the past, to seek lessons from the valuable old. This ‘value revisiting’ also creates science as we keep refining our value measuring systems. Edgar insisted on a centralized finger prints depository to enhance investigation. What seemed ridiculous then turned out to be a necessary innovation.

The continuity of value can also be witnessed in the similarity of times…

Show me the “money”

 

If the most important indicator in measuring and weighing market structure is price confirmation then there is nothing more important than a positive price breakout. Whether we have had the Jan effect (the first 5 day positive price effect) or not, the monthly close is suggesting some conspicuous price confirmations. As Indices around the world are breaking some significant true trendlines. For example the DOW 30. It has broken a significant true trendline of five years. We mentioned prior on 4 Dec in the DOW Illusion – II

“Did you know that DOW is 16% from an all time high, which it has not distinctly broken in 12 years. The basic rule of market structure suggests that the more a resistance is tested, the more likely it’s to break. Any 16% upside gives DOW a chance to test the 12 year resistance. How large is a 16% move?

This is what seems to happen now. This can of course be a false breakout. But how many false breakouts do you need? World Index, Russell 1000 broad index, Nasdaq 100, ISE home builders, Dow transports, and IYE real estate. True trendline breaks are all over the place. We need a failure across the board for the various sector indices to fail here and markets to come down. Well like I (Dan’s Elliott View is contrary to my conventional view) said, the bears are asking the bulls for the price confirmation or “show me the money”. Unfortunately “money” (price confirmation) is staring the bears in their face suggesting them to review their stand.

From the Indian perspective, the price confirmations are absent. You can’t expect India to lead everything. The whole idea of leadership is cyclical. Assets outperform and underperform their global peers cyclically. It’s time for India to lag hence no price confirmation. But if you observe closely all of CNXIT, BSE500, Sensex, CNX100, BSEAUTO, BSEPOWER are testing multi month resistances. A break would set the Indian Bull free to perform in 2012 (despite the odds). At the end of the day a few months or a 12 month Bull can happen in a large 90 year bottoming cycle. We as investors just need to focus on conserving portfolios while trying for double digit annual returns. The only way to do this is to focus on the worst losers and price breakout at the same time. This report carries some of the potential best long ideas in CNX100 components.

Let’s see, price confirmation prevails or Elliott Preferred topping 2 wave structures.

BHEL VS PUNJ(L)

 

Apart from being a conservative long – short strategy, pair trading can also assist in stock selection. What to buy? When to buy? What to sell? When to sell? Now considering we have a worst status for Punj(L) and a still a best status for Bhel. The stocks are running at 5% and 95% respectively. We ran a pair check on the stocks and the JISEKI pair cycles delivered a maximum of 71% from Sep 2009 till May 2011. This is 45% annualized. The JISEKI cycle signal was running in favor of LONG BHEL and SHORT PUNJ(L) till JULY 2011. This again would have delivered about 35% annualized.  A reversion signal to the other side has not happened yet. Whenever it happens, SHORT BHEL and LONG PUNJ(L) will deliver. This is likely to happen because BHEL is the best and PUJ(L) is the worst. The latest ALPHA carries technical cases, Jiseki cycles and the respective pair review.
