Cross-asset commentary
Euro Stoxx 50 index
Euro Stoxx 50 index moved higher again yesterday after price bounced off the 4,211 support in a signal that technical “dip” buying is emerging; upside momentum seems to be holding, although the MACD and the RSI (daily chart) has slowed. Next key resistance is seen at 4,303 and a break above opens the prospects for a run at the November 18th 2021 highs at 4,410; downside risk seen below 4,211 with 4,100 seen as key support
USD/JPY
USD/JPY the pair is now firmly above its 50 day moving average (bullish), the move above the 132.77 previously seen as a key resistance has now turned into a key short term support; the MACD trend following indicator indicates uptrend is in play (see chart) and the RSI momentum indicator indicates upside momentum; potential prospects for a move towards the next resistance at 136.8 provided price can remain above the 132.77 support
Dow Jones 30
Dow 30 Index risk appetite seen improving after Wednesday's FOMC meeting minutes; Dow 30 bounces +326 points higher off the key support near the 32,950s during yesterday’s US trading session in a signal that “dip” buyers are emerging around key technical retracement levels; however despite the positive bounce higher, the index from a technical point remains neutral and within a trading range; upside prospects for a further bounce towards the 33,580s remains in the very short term (5-13 days), provided the index does not fall below the 32,950 support (see daily chart).
