1. Bharti Airtel Buy on Short Lived Breach Below Support

Bharti%20airtel%20for%20sk

Bharti Airtel (BHARTI IN) corrective cycle does not appear complete with risk of a final spike lower  below key pivot support. It is this crack lower that we want to take advantage of.

Sell volume spike implies the flat range will break lower. 

Daily cycle triangulation sides with a press below pivot support. An upside break of this triangle would trigger a tactical long but would lack needed gas for a sustainable drive.

Weekly MACD is seeking a bottoming/basing cycle that will turn the cycle higher once we see a final capitulation spike below pivot support as we did back in 2008, 2010 and 2012.

2. EM Equity Strategy: Cyclicals Leading, China Surging

Broadly speaking, RS for MSCI EM is currently exhibiting some mild deterioration vs. MSCI EAFE following four months of clear outperformance. Nonetheless, the MSCI EM index is bottoming and remains attractive from a price perspective.  In today’s report we offer a technical appraisal of major EM markets, and offer a host of technically attractivec bottoms-up stock ideas across the EM universe.

3. Global Bottoming Process Continues; Remain Overweight China

We believe the market is at short-term overbought extremes and is contending with resistance. Resistance levels we are monitoring include 2,810-2,817 on the S&P 500 and the 200-day moving average on the S&P 600 Small Cap index… see charts below. We would welcome some consolidation or a mild pullback which would be a healthy correction of the current extended market conditions.

5. LG Electronics Resistance Rejection

Lg%20elect%20for%20sk

Lg Electronics (066570 KS) is seeing a rejection from 74.5k resistance that acts as an important intermediate if not macro inflection level. Weakness below 74k implies a test on lower pattern support.

Daily MACD rising wedge accompanied by a flat or triangle corrective range, typically is a bear set-up for a break lower. Making the 74k level pivotal and a short level with a stop above 75k. Very often indicators gyrating higher to relieve oversold conditions with a  failure for price to make headway labels the sideways range as corrective in a stair case sequence.

Shorts need to focus on the 75k pivot as the stop and risk level. Longer term investors will need to remeasure lower entry points barring a break above pivot resistance which would initiate upside bull targets.
