No firework in China markets while US markets upward move continues

 





The previous week was relatively quiet due to the lack of significant macroeconomic data and the Thanksgiving Holiday, yet financial markets retained a positive trend.

The S&P 500 is nearing its July 23 high of 4,607. From a technical standpoint, we maintain an optimistic outlook, while closely monitoring any signs of weakness in the ongoing trend. Our technical target is set at 4,650 area, with support at 4,500.

Both the China and STI are currently operating within a downward channel. We are actively seeking signs of strength, such as a technical breakout from the trendline, before considering a more bullish stance on these markets.

Despite this, REITs sector in Hong Kong and Singapore appears attractive from an interest rate perspective. We are awaiting price pullbacks to identify entry opportunities.

Regarding tactical trading in the short term, we adopt a cautious approach but continues to seek LONG opportunities in the US markets. Concurrently, we are exercising selectivity in trading within the Hong Kong and Singapore markets.

- Tesla Cybertruck event
- US FED Chairman to speak and release of Beige Book report

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...
