| The Table for 2008 states that the start of the Fourth Quarter is October 8, 2008. This suggests that the 2009 First Quarter starts on Friday, January 9, 2009. |
| An S&P chart made by the Murrey Math software on November 28, 2008, shows that the Fourth Quarter was reset to Friday, October 3, 2008. This date indicates a "correction" of 7 days (not the normal 4 days) at the end of the 2008 Fourth Quarter. A correction of 7 days would place the 2009 First Quarter at Tuesday, January 6, 2009. |
| In 1993-1998, THM started the First Quarter a little after January 4th (perihelion). THM shows a preference for starting a new quarter on a Monday or Friday. |
| The table for the 2008 Fourth Quarter was quite good at picking reversal dates. Therefore, I will stay with its pattern, and set the start of the 2009 First Quarter on Monday, January 5, 2009. |
| This represents a "correction" of 8 days. If you wish to use a "correction" of 7 days, then add one trading day to the date listed in the table. For instance, "Mon, Jan 5" would be changed to "Tue, Jan 6". |
| Please email me if you find proof of the "official" start of the 2008 Fourth Quarter. |
