The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) reached its initial price target after completing both rectangle and H&S continuation chart patterns. The right shoulder of a possible H&S continuation was identified as a rectangle with the price target of 79.6 levels. So far the price remained stable after reaching price objective. ACWI ETF is in a steady uptrend. During any pullback, the high of 2018 (77.5) can act as support.

Global Equity Markets report covers single stocks from developed, emerging and frontier markets, ETF’s and global equity indices. The report starts with a review section that highlights the important chart developments on global equity benchmarks. This blog post features from the watchlist section an ascending triangle chart pattern opportunity, listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Stepan Company was featured before as part of Breakout Alerts when the stock completed the 28 month-long rectangle. However since then, price formed another sideways consolidation above the horizontal support (upper boundary of the rectangle). The chart pattern is possibly an ascending triangle (bullish continuation) that can resume the existing uptrend.
Below you can also find a short educational video explaining how several bullish chart patterns can form during a steady uptrend.
STEPAN CO (SCL)
Stepan Company produces specialty and intermediate chemicals, which are sold to other manufacturers and used in a range of end products. The stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Price chart formed a 4 month-long ascending triangle with the horizontal boundary acting as strong resistance at 100.5 levels. The horizontal boundary was tested several times over the course of the chart pattern. A daily close above 102.0 levels will confirm the breakout from the 4 month-long ascending triangle with the possible chart pattern price target of 110.0 levels. Breakout can push the stock to all-time highs.

As mentioned in our previous communications I’ve been working on bringing more short-term chart pattern setups into your attention from the Global equity markets. In doing so I’m paying close attention to have liquid names. Tech Charts Global Equity markets report featured mostly chart pattern in duration between 4 months – 24 months. We are now focusing as well on chart patterns in duration between 2 months – 4 months featured on daily scale. I will continue to bring those opportunities either via Interim Updates or the weekly Global Equity Markets report. Below are 4 additions to Tech Charts watchlist that may experience breakouts in the last trading day of the week. These charts will also be included in the weekly update.

Global Equity Markets report covers single stocks from developed, emerging and frontier markets, ETF’s and global equity indices. The report starts with a review section that highlights the important chart developments on global equity benchmarks. This blog post features from the review section the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM), listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The benchmark for the Emerging Markets performance, the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM) rebounded from the 200-day moving average at 42 levels and reached the upper boundary of its year-long sideways consolidation at 44.4 levels. Without a breakout on China equity benchmarks the Emerging Markets ETF will not get out of the woods. Having said that this week’s price action was promising both on China equity benchmarks and EEM ETF. Price action is still showing sideways consolidation. Breakout above 44.4 levels will be very positive for Emerging Markets. The consolidation can act as a bottom reversal (double bottom) or (symmetrical triangle reversal). Data as of December 16, 2019.
