(●=11-year cycle, ▲=41-month cycle, △=5.3-year cycle)
(△=21-month cycle, ▲=14-month cycle)
A stock with a very long history, suitable for long-term analysis. A 30–33 year cycle is likely valid, but at least an 11-year cycle has been observed, split into two 5.3-year cycles and a three-part 41-month cycle. The 2009 low during the Lehman Shock is considered a 33-year cycle bottom, and we are currently within the second 11-year cycle of a new 33-year cycle. The first 11-year cycle bottom was in March 2020. The second 11-year cycle may have a center-transitional possibility, but peaks are usually expected at the second 41-month cycle or the second 5.3-year cycle.
From March 2020, the first 41-month cycle consists of two 21-month cycles or three 14-month cycles; the bottom is likely from January–May 2022 for the 21-month cycle, and August 2022 ±3 months (May–Nov) for the 14-month cycle. A 21-month cycle is unlikely to distort, so it is likely composed of three 14-month cycles. This implies the second phase has turned bearish, but it remains within the cycle bottom timing. Since it topped exactly seven months in, if symmetry holds, July–September would be the central timing window.
If we analyze the weekly chart more finely, about 16 weeks of cycles can be observed, but the dominant rhythm appears to be around 7 months ≈ 32 weeks. If this count is correct, the price could fall toward the second week of September, unless shortened by long-term cycle effects; however, the time frame (24 weeks) is already ripe for a bottom to occur at any moment.
Plan to accumulate through September;
Targets: ① 73 ② 88 ③ 100.
