Adam Hewison decided to take a look at the crude oil market.
Its the first time he's looked at this market this year and one thing jumped out at him right away and he wanted to share it with you.
It appears as though crude oil has an amazing cyclic quality that can be timed quite accurately with MarketClubs Triangle technology. In this new short video, he showcases this cycle and how you can take advantage of it.

On Wednesday, after much hype and drama, Steve Jobs walked onstage and unveiled Apples latest creation - the iPad. Having watched almost every key address for Apple for many years I, like many others, were disappointed that the product didnt live up to the hype. Nonetheless, Apple will sell a boatload of these products, but not as many as the iPhone.
Upon reflection, it occurred to me that Steve Jobs is changing the whole business model of Apple and I dont believe anyone has caught on to this yet.
In all the reports Ive read after the launch of the iPad, I think every writer /analyst missed this key point: Steve Jobs wants to be like King Gillette.
If you dont know who King Gillette was, you may not old enough to shave. King Gillette started his business at the beginning of the century. His business model is what I believe Apples business model will be in the future.
Long ago, King Gillette decided to practically give the razor away at or below cost, but sell the razor blades separately.
So heres what I think, I think Apple wants to give the iPhone and the iPad to as many people as possible at cost or with a small profit. Remember now, AT&T subsidized the iPhone and Apple gets a slice of the pie from every AT&T customer that has an iPhone. Now why would they do that you might ask?
The key reason, I would argue, is that Apple wants the magic of recurring revenues. This is the dream of many companies - to have millions of folks paying a small amount of money every month for using a service. What makes Apple stand out is the fact that they have an army of developers who are writing code for some very cool apps. Yes, there is an app for that. In fact, there is an app for almost every idea ever thought of.
Not only has the app store been widely successful, but Apple also has iTunes, and iBooks along with iTV coming down the road. So this is what I believe Apples business model is going to be: with 125 million people who have giving Apple their contact and credit card information, Apple has a huge base of customers much like the newspapers and magazines did in the 60s and 70s, but on a much smaller scale. Now Apple can upsell products to those customers at will. The genius part about all of this is the fact that other people are creating products to be sold through the Apple store. Apple just reinvented the King Gillette model in a thoroughly modern way. Hats off to you Steve.
Thats my take on Apples stealth business model.
Now lets take a look at the stock.
In Adam Hewison's short video, he explains to you some key factors he's watching that he thinks will make the difference in this market. If you have a few minutes, please take the time to watch this juggernaut of a stock and what I think is ahead for the market in the next 2 months.

For some time now we've been very concerned that all the major indexes are in the "thin air" and have exceeded some key Fibonacci retracement levels. This new short video explores that and looks at a key Japanese candlestick formation that could really make a difference and be the first clue in the demise of the Dow.
I'll also show and share with you a specific number to look for in February. Should this level be broken, then it will signal a major reversal to the downside for the Dow.

He's wanted to do an update on the crude oil market for a few days now, but unfortunately time got away from him. In his new video on crude oil, he updates some of the thoughts he had before, but also some important elements that are still in play and could push this market significantly higher
