Recently, experienced financial analyst/economist Michael Howell (see footnote 1) has made the case that central bank liquidity (and to a lesser degree, private sector liquidity) is what drives risk-on markets ( QQQ , BTCUSD ).

While Dr. Howell uses his own deep analysis to predict that liquidity is now in an uptrend (see any of his numerous video interviews over the past 3 months on youtube), we point out that Elliot Waves have successfully predicted past liquidity changes (2012-2019), and that we now have a new Elliot Wave set up targeting a 35% rise in liquidity over the coming 24 months!
Based on a reading of Dr. Howell's material, we can approximate Fed-sourced liquidity roughly by using a formula that makes use of the following weekly data-points:
  • WALCL (Federal Reserve Balance Sheet)
  • WDTGAL (US Treasury General Account)
  • RRPONTSYD ("Reverse Repo" facility)


"But but... the recession!"
"But but... earnings!"
"But but... CPI still over 2%"

Will risk-on markets follow liquidity, or will they follow the main street economy? Dr. Howell and Elliot Waves point to the former!
