Technical Analysis

<ul>
<li>Call for a capitulation SPX low near January 24/25 to set in motion a reaction rise in February. Risk of a final downside re test does exist in early Feb.</li>
<li>RSI key lows are compelling for a more bullish drive into early March. Wide range swings typically set up cycle troughs.</li>
<li>DJI displays the best base support with relative strength while the NDX faces yield headwinds and stall bull overhead sell pressure. <strong>US Macro is bearish in Q2.</strong>

US Capitulation Low in Place with Re Test Risk near Feb 4-6

Nasdaq-100 Stock Index / Technical Analysis

<ul>
<li>NDX break below trendline and price support at 15,300 did open Pandora's box and was touted as a key risk driver for a global sell off into late January.</li>
<li>NDX 14,300/100 low zone to kick off a recovery rise in February. We prefer the DJI near 34k and SPX near 4,350. Late January cycle low timeline in focus.</li>
<li>NDX underside of broken trendline at 15,500 is the level to re take to mend the technical damage - a tall order at this stage.</li>
