A confluence of factors suggests the Dow Jones Industrial Average is heading for a 20 percent decline this year, Citi FX Technicals Global Head Tom Fitzpatrick said Thursday on CNBC.
"While
there's a little bit left to the top side in the near-term, we're still
on the same page we have been for the last three months or so, which
is, that we're going to peak out around these levels and see a (decline)
probably in excess of 20 percent," he said on "Fast Money."
Fitzpatrick looked at Dow performance charts from 1973-1977 and from 2006-present for the analysis.
In
addition to a 20 percent drop in the Dow, he also predicted that gold
would hit $2,400 an ounce, jobless claims would rise and Brent crude
would hit an all-time high.
"The equity market looks great, up 120
percent if you compare it to 2009," he added. "But if you compare it to
1999, we're unchanged, and we're below the 2000-2007 highs.
"The
economy probably barely grew 1 percent in the fourth quarter. We have a
situation where it's looking like it could be quite sluggish with the
tax dynamics and the debt dynamics in the first quarter."
