GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – September 5, 2020
REVIEW
The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) experienced its first setback after a lengthy uptrend. I've adjusted the boundary of the trend channel in order to focus on the latter stages of the uptrend. Friday's candlestick formed long spindle suggesting buyers stepped in at the possible lower boundary. 82 is an important level to watch. I don't think the ETF cleared the resistance at 82. The breach was premature to call it a breakout. So I still monitor 82 as the resistance. The 200-day moving average is forming support at 74.9 levels. Breakdown below Friday's low (79.3) and the lower boundary of the 3 month-long trend channel can result in a sharp correction towards the 200-day average. Sideways consolidation around 82 levels and inside the green trend channel will be positive in the short-term.
