Daily Brief Technical Analysis: Softbank Short Resistance and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • Softbank Short Resistance
  • USD Rally Resumption

Softbank Short Resistance

By Thomas Schroeder

  • Softbank (9982 JP) is knocking on 6,000 compelling resistance that sets up a short trade just under this barrier. 5,300 lower pattern support is the level to test/break.
  • RSI is also building energy for a powerful breakout from the triangle/flat range with a bear spin.
  • 6,000 is a stiff barrier and if it caps will set in motion a higher degree decline to retest the 4,200-macro support line.

USD Rally Resumption

By Thomas Schroeder

  • DXY 105 was the level to hold and 106.50 the resistance to clear for a dollar green light from our 105.50 buy in point with a near target of 110.50.
  • Euro and INR have been long USD picks and more recently bought back the USD/THB and NZD (short). USD/CNH has cleared breakout resistance.
  • Conviction: High. USD macro bull to (109.50 met) 110.50 and 111.25. 119 attracts in 2023.  USD vs EM FX showing signs of a big risk move. Watch USD/MYR above 4.50.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: Japan Among the Latest to Break Out; Buy Ideas in Growth/Cyclicals and Consumer Staples and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • Japan Among the Latest to Break Out; Buy Ideas in Growth/Cyclicals and Consumer Staples

Japan Among the Latest to Break Out; Buy Ideas in Growth/Cyclicals and Consumer Staples

By Joe Jasper

  • The theme we have seen over the past four weeks is an increasing number of indexes reversing 4-10-month downtrends and/or breaking above important resistance levels, with no failed breakouts.
  • We continue to believe that global equities are going through a bottoming process, but the real test will come during the eventual pullback, which we believe we are now experiencing.
  • We are watching to see whether these breakout levels and important moving averages (e.g., 50-day MAs) will hold.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: Nifty Top Zone for a Pullback and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • Nifty Top Zone for a Pullback
  • HSI Index, HSITECH Index, Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and China Unicom

Nifty Top Zone for a Pullback

By Thomas Schroeder

  • Nifty’s near linear rise much like drives in January and March that turned on a dime. Once a top was in, the Nifty turned down hard.
  • RSIs are extremely overbought and have formed rising wedges that show risk of a sharp turn lower as in previous cycles.
  • Nifty banks kissed the 39,500-sell resistance and showing relative lead weakness versus the Nifty.

HSI Index, HSITECH Index, Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and China Unicom

By Untying The Gordian Knot

  • The market pivoted late last week from there will be no PBOC rates cut to there being much more Monetary Policy support needed.
  • The pivot was the sharp slowdown in Aggregate Financing, Industrial Production, Real estate, and Retail Sales. All it took was a 10-bps cut in one-year MLF.
  • Meanwhile, Hong Kong saw HIBOR continue to rise even with currency strength.

Meituan Bear Pressure Accelerating

By Thomas Schroeder

  • June 27 call to sell strength in line and showing increasing downside pressure below the 185 support (now resistance).
  • Dual top at 210 induced a turn well under trendline resistance. Break of bear wedge support confirmed the macro sell signal.
  • Below 166 targets 140 where a stall in the decline/bounce is due (resistance near 160-66) but expected to give way for a test on the 110 low zone.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: SPX Summer Extension and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • SPX Summer Extension

SPX Summer Extension

By Thomas Schroeder

  • Our summer risk cycle peak due in early August, shifted right after the SPX clear 4,200 and NDX above trendline resistance. A fresh cycle peak target lies at SPX 4,350.
  • RTY perform over the SPX makes it a top long on the breakout above 1,930 with fresh support at 1,950 and rally PT at 2,050 with risk to 2,080. 
  • SPX 4,170 pivot support is in focus with a call to buy a dip near 4,220 for that final push higher in in August.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: U.S. Dollar Topping?; Bullish Reversals Continue; Ideas in Growth/Cyclicals and more

  • U.S. Dollar Topping?; Bullish Reversals Continue; Ideas in Growth/Cyclicals, Financials

U.S. Dollar Topping?; Bullish Reversals Continue; Ideas in Growth/Cyclicals, Financials

By Joe Jasper

  • This is now the third Int’l Compass/third week in a row where we are discussing an increasing number of country indexes experiencing bullish 3.5-9-month downtrend reversals.
  • Importantly, all of the previously mentioned indexes are holding above their breakout levels (i.e., there has yet to be any failed breakouts).
  • Now, the U.S. dollar (DXY) is starting to show early signs of topping. We continue to believe that global equities are going through a bottoming process.

HSI Index: Longfor, Alibaba, Ping An, and Tencent

By Untying The Gordian Knot

  • The carnage in China and some Hong Kong real estate and property management companies and financials went largely unnoticed.

  • It has had zero impact on the rest of the world (ROW) markets.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: Tencent New Lows in Sight and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • Tencent New Lows in Sight
  • S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 Testing Key Resistance Levels; Pause Likely; Buying Biotech

Tencent New Lows in Sight

By Thomas Schroeder

  • Tencent short from 390 is rewarding and reaching for new chart lows now that the 310 pivot support has given way and leading the likes of BABA.
  • MACD target support is the key input to align with a terminal wave 5 low to set up the macro long entry in September.
  • Undershoot risk to lower channel support with a low due in September and rally hurdles toward year end at 370/390. 420 remains the forward macro barrier to challenge/clear.

S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 Testing Key Resistance Levels; Pause Likely; Buying Biotech

By Joe Jasper

  • The weight of the evidence suggests that the lows for this bear market have likely already been established, but that does not mean it will be smooth sailing from here.
  • The SPX and NDX are both testing important resistance levels (4165-4180 and the YTD downtrend, respectively), making this a logical spot for the indexes to stall and potentially pull back.
  • Ultimately, we would expect to see support near their 50-day MAs as the market goes through a bottoming process. We remain neutral overall.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: WTI 85 Rally Pivot Will Shift the Inflation Narrative and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • WTI 85 Rally Pivot Will Shift the Inflation Narrative

WTI 85 Rally Pivot Will Shift the Inflation Narrative

By Thomas Schroeder

  • WTI bear call from 116 is meeting our 89/85 low zone with a key turn target near 85 that will spur a rally and shift inflation expectations.
  • The touted break down from triangulation is setting up a key low. We did reduce our short at 89 with a plan to close the remaining tranche on weakness.
  • RSI is not confirming new price lows for a case of bull divergence. A macro low is setting up if the 85 support holds and induces a bull turn.

Bullish Reversals Proliferate; Stick With Growth; Buy Ideas in Tech, Discretionary, & Industrials

By Joe Jasper

  • Last week we noted that the bullish reversals had begun, with the MSCI ACWI (ACWI-US), STOXX Europe 50, and SPX the first few to reverse topside their 4-month downtrends.
  • As we discuss below, bullish reversals are proliferating globally, something that continues to support our belief that global equities are bottoming.
  • Global growth Sectors continue to gain momentum and have emerged as leadership — overweight growth. Sectors covered today include Technology, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials — add exposure
