This post This Is When Emerging Markets Crisis May Hit U.S. Markets<\/a> appeared first on Daily Reckoning<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Dow Jones was up nearly 400 points today, led by blue chips Walmart and Boeing.<\/p>\n

Walmart soared after posting its best sales in over a decade.<\/p>\n

Boeing jumped on hopeful reports that U.S.-Chinese trade talks will soon resume.<\/p>\n

And so the daily soap opera continues, with its twisting plots, rotating characters\u2026 and fleeting love affairs.<\/p>\n

Turkey, the past week’s main antagonist, has gone offstage \u2014 at least for now.<\/p>\n

But for how long?<\/p>\n

Let us briefly revisit the last emerging-markets crisis in search of light\u2026<\/p>\n

The crisis was in swing by early July 1997, when Thailand suddenly devalued its currency.<\/p>\n

Panic spread throughout emerging markets as Indonesia and others followed in train.<\/p>\n

Anxious credit fled emerging markets as fast as legs could take it.<\/p>\n

But the drama did not impact U.S. stock markets for months.<\/p>\n

It was not until late October that the blade swung this way\u2026 nearly four months later.<\/p>\n

As Nicholas Colas, co-founder of DataTrek Research, notes:<\/p>\n

The spillover effects of the 1997 Asia crisis took many months to reach U.S. stock markets\u2026 the S&P 500 was up 7.0% in July. It then treaded water between 900 and 970 until Oct. 27, when it fell 6.9%. That one-day drop is why U.S. investors remember the Asia Crisis.<\/i><\/p>\n

His two conclusions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Emerging-market crises take time to develop, and at first U.S. stocks will ignore any potential impact.<\/i><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. U.S. equities can continue to rally even as a crisis takes hold, provided there is no adverse impact to the U.S. economy. <\/i><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      2018 is not 1997.<\/p>\n

      And Turkey is not Thailand. The actors, the script, are different.<\/p>\n

      They always are.<\/p>\n

      But if this history repeats \u2014 or at least rhymes \u2014 any blow from the present drama could land in November or December.<\/p>\n

      Recall, the S&P plunged nearly 7% in one day four months following the initial contagion in 1997.<\/p>\n

      Meantime\u2026 researchers at Technical Traders peered into their charts\u2026 and also divined trouble for November:<\/p>\n

      \u201cU.S. Stock Markets Higher Until November 2018,\u201d they conclude.<\/p>\n

      These prognosticators believe they have pinpointed \u201ca means of structurally understanding the U.S. capital markets in relation to risks or reversal and crisis contagion.\u201d<\/p>\n

      \u201cCrisis contagion\u201d seems especially apt this week given events in Turkey.<\/p>\n

      Global capital is presently fleeing risky markets for safer, more stable shores (these United States, for one).<\/p>\n

      Technical Traders believes this massive capital shift (potentially $7 to $15 trillion) is \u201clikely the largest the planet has ever seen.\u201d<\/p>\n

      They therefore believe U.S. markets have a solid three-plus months ahead of them:<\/p>\n

      We believe the U.S. stock market could continue much higher at this point, depending on how the global markets react to this shift in capital and the longer-term debt issues that are playing out\u2026 [it] should continue to push higher for at least the next 90-plus days till near November 2018. <\/i><\/p>\n

      But come November\u2026<\/p>\n

      Their technical hocus-pocus \u2014 based on volatility patterns, capital markets-to-GDP ratios, market rotation and other arcana of the trade \u2014 reveals a rift in the lute:<\/p>\n

      There is a relatively strong likelihood that some type of deeper price correction will hit the U.S. markets \u2014 possibly a bit sooner or after this date\u2026 November or December of 2018 appears to be a time where prices may rotate a bit more violently to the downside. <\/i><\/p>\n

      You are free to salt this information according to your taste \u2014 the tools of technical analysis are less than infallible.<\/p>\n

      Yet we begin to suspect November (and December) may prove interesting <\/i>months.<\/p>\n

      Keeping to November, it is the time of midterm elections.<\/p>\n

      The odds market indicates the Democrats will seize the United States House of Representatives.<\/p>\n

      PredictIt \u2014 \u201ca stock market for politics\u201d \u2014 gives the business a roughly 65% chance.<\/p>\n

      Assume for the moment its soothsaying proves true.<\/p>\n

      Will Democrats attempt to reverse Trump’s business-friendly policies that helped lift markets since his election?<\/p>\n

      Or will at least the prospects of which give markets a good fright?<\/p>\n

      Furthermore, will the House vote to impeach the president?<\/p>\n

      A conviction would require a two-thirds Senate majority \u2014 unlikely barring a stunning Democrat victory in November.<\/p>\n

      But the political theater alone could play the devil with markets.<\/p>\n

      And if a delayed reaction to Turkey’s unfolding crisis comes home around that time\u2026 the double blow could pack quite a wallop.<\/p>\n

      We speculate of course\u2026 as is our wont. And we hazard no formal prediction.<\/p>\n

      We merely consider possibilities and examine odds\u2026 come what may.<\/p>\n

      As our co-founder Bill Bonner is fond to say:<\/p>\n

      \u201cSometimes right, sometimes wrong, and always in doubt, we just try to connect the dots.\u201d<\/p>\n

      But looking ahead to November\u2026 we see some dots beginning to connect\u2026<\/p>\n

      Zach Scheidt shows you why he thinks the market has a good solid run ahead of it \u2014 at least, perhaps, until November.<\/p>\n
