So, this month&#8217;s new low in bond prices is likely occurring within a fifth wave from last year&#8217;s high, <strong>suggesting that a substantial rally should develop this spring<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Elliott Wave Theorist<\/em> published March 17, and its forecast for a &#8220;substantial rally&#8221; proved timely: The 30-year U.S. T-Bond price low of 145^26.0 registered on March 14, and since then, long-bond prices have indeed moved northward.<\/p>\n<p>You can see this rally [entire wave labeling available to subscribers] in the 30-year U.S. T-Bond in Elliott Wave International&#8217;s May 22 <em>Short Term Update<\/em> chart:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/chartfolder\/stu\/USA052217.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"420\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, the price rallied to a high of 155^16.0 on April 18 &#8212; <strong>a 6% advance in a month!<\/strong> Recently, after a short retreat, the climb resumed.<\/p>\n<p>Before concluding, let&#8217;s briefly shift focus to the stock market &#8212; specifically, the claimed average gain of 7.228% during the past 116 years that investors have allegedly been making annually.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Buy and hold&#8221; proponents often point to that annual gain figure.
