GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – May 17, 2025
REVIEW
The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) did a round trip after the sharp sell-off and reached its all-time highs around 124 levels. The fact that the ETF cleared its 200-day average and moved significantly above it can be analyzed long-term positive as pullbacks and consolidations are likely to find support above the 200-day. I will monitor the ETF to see if it will stabilize above the long-term average in preparation of resuming higher. One thing is clear the sharp rebound from the lows is due for a short breather. The breather if it forms a higher low above the long-term average in the form of a tight consolidation will increase the conviction on bullish setup, a possible H&S pattern with the neckline at 124 levels. Outlook is positive for Global Equities.
