(8/3/13)
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) involving the Dow had its
lowest monthly close ever back in March of 2009 using a period of 8
Months. In the past when the 8 Month RSI has closed at or below the
21 level (points B) the Dow has seen significant oversold rallies lasting
several months (points C to D) except for the 1978 event (point E).
These oversold rallies ranged from 78% on the low end to as high as 382%. As the table shows below the current
rally from the March 2009 low is the 3rd largest when the 8 Month RSI has
dropped to 21 or below. Also it has been 53 months since the March
2009 low thus the Dow is rather extended in both price and
time.

Meanwhile notice after each significant oversold rally a
correction followed lasting several months except for the 1978 event. The table below shows the
corrections that have followed all of the oversold rallies when the 8 Month RSI
Events dropped to 21 or below. Previous corrections have ranged from 25%
on the low end to as high as 54%. Thus history suggests a decent
correction will occur once the current rally from the March 2009 low peaks.
