World War II and the advent of radar stimulated interest and training in electronics and the theory of communications. Following the war, Mr. Hurst specialized for 25 years in electronics systems design for aerospace applications. An interesting project related to antisubmarine warfare provided experience with and appreciation of the power of large digital computers as applied to the problem of extracting information from time-series data. Numerical analysis methods were first applied by Mr. Hurst to negotiable equity data in the search for a solution to the classical cost-effectiveness problem. This effort led to the discovery of the spectral signature phenomenon in price data (cyclicality), and to a "Theory of Irrational Decision Processes." In 1969, Mr. Hurst founded DECISION MODELS, INC., for the purpose of further developing decision theory and wave concepts as applied to the equity markets. The CYCLI TEC aids to cyclic analysis of equities resulted and were initially published in 1971. Mr. Hurst has authored several treatises on the Wave Theory of Price Action. The first was the book "The Profit Magic of Stock Transaction Timing," published by PRENTICE-HALL in 1970. Please see pictures as they are an important part of the condition description.
