GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – January 18, 2025

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) rebounded strongly from support area between 114.6 and 116.7. One possibility is the developing H&S top if the support area is broken down. A breach above 120.3 levels can result in a H&S top failure and resume the uptrend. Breakdown of the support area (I would like to see a decisive close below the 200-day average to confirm the H&S top) can target 110.5 levels. For now price action looks like a reversion to mean similar to Aug 24. Continued consolidation above the year-long average can be a preparation for breakout higher.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – January 11, 2025

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) is testing support area between 114.6 and 116.7. The lower boundary of the upward sloping channel at 120 levels broke down with gap opening. While the uptrend is intact and the ETF is above the 200-day average, price action can remain weak and volatile in the short-term. Several technical support levels are overlapping between 114.6 and 116.7 area. One possibility is the developing and completion of the H&S top if the support area is broken down. Strength from current levels and a breach above 120.3 levels can result in a H&S top failure and resume the uptrend. Breakdown of the support area (I would like to see a decisive close below the 200-day average to confirm the H&S top) can target 110.5 levels.

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) is pulling back to strong support area between 114.39 and 116.7. The lower boundary of the upward sloping channel at 120 levels broke down with gap opening. While the uptrend is intact and the ETF is above the 200-day average, price action can remain weak and volatile in the short-term. Several technical support levels are overlapping between 114.39 and 116.7 area. One possibility is the developing and completion of the H&S top if the support area is broken down. So the pullback can be analyzed as a reversion to the mean (the 200-day average).

REVIEW


The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) cleared the horizontal resistance at 116.7 levels and possibly completed a 2 month-long cup & handle continuation with a price target of 128 levels. Strong support area for ACWI ETF is between 113.93 and 116.7. Short-term support is the lower boundary of the upward sloping channel at 120 levels. Uptrend is intact. The ETF continues to remain in a rising trend channel with higher highs and higher lows. Breakout above the minor high at 121.85 is resuming the uptrend towards the cup & handle price objective.
