35% Chance Of X Flares

The sun has been particularly active the last few days.

From Spaceweather:

WEEKEND FORECAST: Solar activity remains high. NOAA forecasters estimate a 70% chance of M-flares and a 35% chance of X-flares during the next 24 hours. Over the next three days (Oct. 26-28), a series of CMEs created by the recent limb eruptions will deliver glancing blows to Earth's magnetic field, possibly sparking polar geomagnetic storms.
As we have noted in some past posts, high levels of sunspot activity seems to be connected with human behavior.

We also note a moderately severe earthquake just occurred off the coast of Japan.  It seems solar activity is also connected with earthquake frequency.

Will this be a turning point for the market, or will it continue to march higher?
