And stated before, the 20-year cycle is the most important cycle for forecasting future market

In order for you to see and study how the cycles repeat, I have made of a chart of 20-year . E' n) h! U4 R& g4 ^, l
cycles, beginning with the year 1831. To show all of the cycles from 1831 to date, we have
" l5 D9 |7 r3 t Icarried through on this chart the monthly high and low on railroad and canal stocks from 1831; o# H' B/ L3 ]9 b! O+ m* t, e
to 1855. Beginning with 1856 we have used the W. D. Gann Averages on railroad stocks

By placing the monthly high and low prices for each of these 20-year periods above each
% D0 \" G' Q) j nother, it is easy to see how the cycles repeat. The year of the cycles are marked from "1" to

1929 FORECAST

1869, 1909, and 1919. Looking back 20 years, we find that top was reached in August, 1909,
. J9 p9 O4 H" K& G$ m. Eand 60 years before, top was reached in July, 1869. If you will read my Annual Forecast for
* E3 Z5 i8 ^" a1929, you will see that I had figured the top must come not later than the end of August and
/ y9 P z2 ^' O& @' d bstated that a "Black Friday" would come in September. Following strictly the 1869 top, the
1 d# s' T: q; w& J# c! Htop would have come in July, 1929, and some stocks did make top at that time. Following the
9 l. L7 `; Z( m1909 top, we could expect top in August, and the actual high of the averages and many 5 e# K7 t0 y4 l5 j- R" I
individual stocks was reached on September 3, 1929. Going back to 1919, we find that the 3 e: a( `* z* x1 U4 v

early part of November.) h. t8 u! W# _: r; x2 ^

From all of these tops – 1869, 1909, and 1919 – sharp declines followed in the fall of the year,
' U" D6 l$ ^1 b& d# Hjust as they did in 1929. Therefore, you see how easy it was to follow this great advance and
. ?+ L# t8 w# ?( Y- K0 v5 _5 l# Odetermine when it would culminate. There is no other way, outside of using the 20 and 60-

1935 FORECAST
" F6 P$ j" I0 o% {) rFiguring out the Forecast for 1935, we see on this 20-year Chart that we are running against ' S& X( B2 p9 R( q) @5 Q
1855, 1875, 1895, 1915. Therefore, we look to see what happened in those years. We find

. d5 m! F0 n1 d6 P- E$ FThen, look back at 1865, 1885, 1905, and 1925, the years in the 5th zone or the 10-year 0 M" i3 y1 n" _5 Z
cycles. We find that in 1865 the high was reached in October; in 1905 the high was in $ O7 f' z( _( V5 e9 [4 `5 f) G% y0 B! o
October: in 1925 the high was in November.8 X( ~, f% V- u$ `/ B

Then, we would have a good guide in making out the Forecast for 1935, and we would know
6 T! x1 x# l; I$ y Pwhat months to watch for top and a change in trend. My Annual Forecast for 1935, which
' _% E. a# C- e5 J1 O: _# Fwas made up in October, 1934, indicated top for October 28 and a secondary top for
6 M( q9 s$ p( l2 aNovember 15-16, 1935.
( _: f5 }7 u5 D* E# V1 w; W, l2 P( x
There are other ways of using this Chart to advantage. One method of determining the trend
' ~) T( I' a8 tis to compare the years of previous cycles in the same zone. For example: after the Dow-
' w5 ^0 d+ r; v/ ?Jones 30 Industrial Averages crossed 108 in May, 1935, they were above the average high # |: w$ {0 ~# }9 t
price of all the previous years in the 15th-year zone. Therefore, the market indicated higher 1 d+ r# F$ g3 ~; M6 w% f
prices and showed that there would be a bull campaign.

This completes our comparison of the 60, 40, and 20-year cycles back from 1936. Next, we 3 ^' E% z' Z3 i5 Y" `7 K' V/ S
look at the cycles on the other side of the Chart, in the 6th year of the 20-year cycle, or the 6th 1 z5 u# |* G1 |$ q
zone, of the 10-year cycles. These years are 1866, 1886, 1906, and 1926.

1906 - The next important cycle to consider is 1906. In that year, the great McKinley ! D; A' H' \" `8 Z

price in history up to that time. From the high of January, a sharp decline followed 3 p9 W( x( V" U, W) a: f% ~4 f
to May. Much of this selling was caused by the San Francisco earthquake. Then, + {- L, k. ?- N( y' [8 }6 @- V; z
there was a rally into June, followed by a sharp decline to low in July, with the , A% u S4 T" w5 S1 h+ B4 r+ S2 w% K& d

Now, when I get ready to make up my Forecast for 1936, I will consider all of the cycles. I 6 B% d' x7 S9 B

1936 is likely to be a very uncertain election year just as it was in 1896, when the Bryan silver

with two Democratic presidential candidates and one Republican. There certainly is going to

My opinion, at this writing, is that the first decline will start in the month of January and wind . K& T, K7 `% }" o7 P6 ?6 |$ ^
up with a sharp decline. February – the market may drift along in a narrow, trading range
7 J7 U! a8 x$ o$ z- ^with some rallies, but there will be another decline in the month of March, just as there was in # I2 i0 w" Y! z2 {$ a; k/ w
1926. I am confident that there will be another break in the months of May and June,
