China Internet Companies Earnings to trigger directional move

 






Thoughts on Week Ahead:
Week 13 Nov 2023

Expecting China Internet Companies Earnings to trigger China stock market directional move 
US stocks traded within a narrow trading range for the majority of the week, but concluded the week with a strong close, +1.56% on Friday. From a technical perspective, the S&P 500 has surpassed 4,400 key resistance level, leading us to anticipate a potential move towards 4,500, provided that 4,350 support remains intact.

Investors and traders will be closely monitoring the earnings reports of Chinese internet companies this week. We anticipate a directional shift following these earnings, as the reports are expected to provide insights into the recovery and growth of the Chinese consumer market. Additionally, investors are also keeping an eye on the US Oct CPI report for any unexpected developments.

Gold and oil prices experienced declines, influenced by a potential pause of tensions in the Middle East. Key support level for gold will be at US$1,900/oz.

Looking ahead to the upcoming week, preference remains for long trades, but cautious on any indications of increased supply.

Headlines for Week Ahead:

Week Ahead: US Indices Momemtum in Question

    Week Ahead: 10 March 2025 Key event this week was  U.S. indices technically closed below the key 30-week (or 150-day) moving average . For the upward trend to continue, the indices need to reclaim levels above the moving averages. Remaining below the 30-week (or 150-day) moving average could indicate that the upward trend has reversed downward. However, in the short term, we expect a rebound as the indices trade near their respective support levels. Medium Term: S&P 500 (SPX):  The S&P 500 broke below its key upward trendline, which had been established since October 2023. In the longer term, we expect the index to trade sideways or move in a downward direction. In the short term, we anticipate the S&P 500 will find support at the 5,700 level and could rebound to test the 5,860 and then the 5,966 resistance zones. Straits Times Index (STI):  The technical trend remains bullish. We maintain a constructive outlook while staying vigilant for any sig...
