The 8.6-Month or 37.33-Week Cycle | Martin Armstrong

There are 37.33 weeks within an 8.6-month cycle. Looking at the 8.6-month turning points within the 8.6-year wave structure, we have the following dates:

Note, we have 6 waves within each half of the 8.6-year wave. This is caused by the parallel wave that groups 12 waves of 6 into the 72-interval wave. We can see that the difference between 2008.57 and 2009.29 is again 0.72% of a year. Once more, we see the interjection of the number 72.

The interaction between this 8.6-month cycle within the 8.6-year cycle is critical to comprehending how the natural cyclical forces function in all aspects of our physical world. On the 8.6-year wave, the first reaction low after the major high at 2007.15 is 2008.225, corresponding to March 23, 2008.

You will notice that this date does not appear on the list of dates above. This turning point was the low for the AMEX Oil Index, from which a rally moved into May 21, 2008, just afterwards. Many commodities reached turning points ±1 week from that March 23rd target, such as cattle, sugar, coffee, cotton, wheat, and soybean oil, just to mention a few.

When we compare the 8.6-month cycle (37.33 weeks), we see the target of July 27, 2008. Here, we find again turning points generally ±1 week or so. The Australian dollar reached a high on July 15, 2008, for the year. The Mexican peso peaked August 4. The Euro peaked on July 15. Now, if we look at the Swiss franc, the high was March 17, 2008; the high in the Japanese yen was also March 17, 2008. Let us now turn to the British pound; here, the high is November 9, 2007, and the Canadian dollar peaked November 7, 2007. Looking at the above list of 8.6-month dates, we see November 10, 2007.

The Sixth Wave and 2032.95 | Martin Armstrong

Here is the Economic Confidence Model at the very high end to all the questions about how high up the fractal structure can be defined.

Martin Armstrong's Fractal Design of Time.

We are in the grand Public Wave overall that peaks in 2032.95. This is the equivalent of the wave that picked the Peak of Rome in 175 AD. So here, too, this is a wave where the government will fight very hard to hold control, for that is the dominant 309.6 character, while the final wave on the next fractal level is a Private Wave of 51.6 years. This is the people fighting back as they lose confidence in the government. The two forces are at war right now. The worse the environment becomes for the people, the more authoritarian governments will become. Each wave of 8.6 also alters back and forth between Public and Private.

This is why I warn it is time to try to reduce the amplitude by waking up. We achieved this briefly with the Age of Enlightenment. Government then fought back and reclaimed control. We replaced monarchy with ministers. Nothing changed otherwise. We will fight the good fight once again and seek to triumph with a new age of Enlightenment. Will we win? Who knows. But we have to try. What comes after 2032 is a private wave – the opportunity to reclaim our liberty once again. Here is that chart.

» It has been propaganda that we live under a democracy. The people have no right to vote on critical issues.

Republics historically are the most corrupt forms of government. «

The last Sixth Wave marked the peak of the Roman Empire. Every historian has drawn the line to mark the beginning of the Fall of Rome took place with the death of Marcus Aurelius in 180 AD. Talk about almost getting to a new age, he sent an ambassador to China. This has been revealed by books from the Tang Dynasty. The East and West knew each other. Merchants ran the trade routes. This would have been the beginning of a major global economy back in 180 AD. Marcus’ death ended the golden age and expansion of the world economy. He was followed by his crazy son, Commodus. With the death of Commodus, the Praetorian Guard actually auctioned off the position of emperor to the highest bidder. Since he was just nuts, they got to rule Rome, and it went to the heads, to the point that corruption was in the open.

» Our idea of managing our political-social-economy. «

I have told the story of how I used to meet with people who wanted to run for President at the behest of those in the Republican Party. Then in 1999, I was asked to fly down to Texas to meet with George Bush, Jr. I was told that this was different. They had me meet with various potential candidates to vet them out and give my opinion if they could handle the job from understanding the global economy. So what was different with Bush, Jr., was the fact they told me he was “stupid.” I was shocked. I asked why would you want to make someone stupid president? I was told he had the “name.” That is when they asked me to be the chief economist in the White House. I declined, for our business was way too global for that. They told me the plan was to surround him with good people. That is how Cheney took the role of President and moved his office in the White House.

» The 8.6 year frequency is fractal in nature and it may indeed

work from different dates other than the formal dates we show on the ECM. «

I have been told similar traits with Obama. He was told they would let him play with the social stuff but leave everything else to them. The bureaucracy tasted power under Bush, and they were not about to let that go. Obama missed more than 60% of his daily security briefings. Biden is, at best, a part-time president who no one believes is truly running the nation because he simply is not mentally capable of doing so. This is the Praetorian Guard running the world.
