In order for you to see and study how the cycles repeat, I have made of a chart of 20-year
; s1 ^+ x$ I6 T0 e# ncycles, beginning with the year 1831. To show all of the cycles from 1831 to date, we have ! p# }/ r8 u5 @$ d3 K) V
carried through on this chart the monthly high and low on railroad and canal stocks from 1831) B3 b) |; ]: J
to 1855. Beginning with 1856 we have used the W. D. Gann Averages on railroad stocks 8 b' i% S) d' b6 Z. y9 q

By placing the monthly high and low prices for each of these 20-year periods above each
# B2 E N6 G, \other, it is easy to see how the cycles repeat. The year of the cycles are marked from "1" to

According to my discovery of the 60-year cycle, I had figured that 1929 would repeat like # H. G& g$ W. o) e- R" b. R% ?
1869, 1909, and 1919. Looking back 20 years, we find that top was reached in August, 1909,
s& _8 G- s( [+ _8 f: Land 60 years before, top was reached in July, 1869. If you will read my Annual Forecast for / O: b. z. C8 ?" D1 Q
1929, you will see that I had figured the top must come not later than the end of August and 6 B u1 r+ ~# t6 t6 N
stated that a "Black Friday" would come in September. Following strictly the 1869 top, the 4 J' J; A1 y# f; d/ C( J
top would have come in July, 1929, and some stocks did make top at that time. Following the % d8 o: e# o( `) m, A
1909 top, we could expect top in August, and the actual high of the averages and many
0 I, D+ Z! q; |1 b6 ^individual stocks was reached on September 3, 1929. Going back to 1919, we find that the

From all of these tops – 1869, 1909, and 1919 – sharp declines followed in the fall of the year, 1 o7 _& d+ L, M7 @$ Y; i
just as they did in 1929. Therefore, you see how easy it was to follow this great advance and / S2 E6 b2 s: Z# s
determine when it would culminate. There is no other way, outside of using the 20 and 60-0 ^( f/ o4 d) h9 r; d
year cycle that we could have forecast this great bull campaign and its culmination so closely

Figuring out the Forecast for 1935, we see on this 20-year Chart that we are running against & s! j* c0 E" M2 H$ o
1855, 1875, 1895, 1915. Therefore, we look to see what happened in those years. We find8 v. l2 j* z& t, o- T

Then, look back at 1865, 1885, 1905, and 1925, the years in the 5th zone or the 10-year 2 C. u. i% p2 S P( Y

Then, we would have a good guide in making out the Forecast for 1935, and we would know
1 F: U; ~" D) {what months to watch for top and a change in trend. My Annual Forecast for 1935, which ! t! M; f7 B3 k, I9 Q

There are other ways of using this Chart to advantage. One method of determining the trend
! K' C7 E4 S C2 e) Xis to compare the years of previous cycles in the same zone. For example: after the Dow-* E) X" A, p2 n9 Z: b) U% f

look at the cycles on the other side of the Chart, in the 6th year of the 20-year cycle, or the 6th ^9 U; I \) L6 t0 ~9 S5 s

will go back and also check the 7-year cycles, the 14-year and 15-year cycles, which is half of % A8 R% ? M# I0 C
the 30-year cycle. But, at this writing, with my knowledge and experience of the future / \: o+ S8 o& Z: @! {& t
cycles, I expect the 1896 cycle to repeat in 1936.
2 I( i6 k l/ i; C5 k' U5 J. }3 J# E# [7 g' ?8 r2 h- q7 Z7 A
1936 is likely to be a very uncertain election year just as it was in 1896, when the Bryan silver ! ?5 Q; l, o: T6 O
scare caused a panicky decline into August. There is a possibility of a three-cornered fight, ; t3 b+ \3 d! P" B# K% a8 Q
with two Democratic presidential candidates and one Republican. There certainly is going to : J* ^& {( o/ D
be a time during 1936 when the investors are going to get scared and speculators are going to

, H! f6 ]0 s, j# i, VMy opinion, at this writing, is that the first decline will start in the month of January and wind

1926. I am confident that there will be another break in the months of May and June,

ending of the cycle from 1896 in August is quite important and regardless of how high or how , c; B% i) I; G0 V
low stocks are, there are likely to be some sharp declines before the end of August. Again, in
& u' r9 w" d& i Ethe last half of September, uncertain conditions and possibility of sharp declines are indicated.

September, October, and November are all important because these months are 7 years from

December, with high prices around the end of the year.
