GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – March 23, 2019
REVIEW
The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) is trying to find direction above its long-term average. In March the index pulled back to the 200-day average and rebounded. Past few day's trading once again pulled the index towards the long-term average that can act as support around 70 levels. We can see choppy price action around the 200-day average. More important is how the index will consolidate around the average. If it forms an orderly, recognizable short-term consolidation (in the form of a flag, pennant, rectangle, symmetrical triangle) I will conclude that the index is preparing for a new leg up. Price action in 2016 is a good explanation of what I would like to see around the 200-day average to call for a change in trend. (A sharp drop, followed by a strong rebound that breaches the 200-day average, followed by choppy price action in search of a new trend and eventually forming a recognizable chart pattern)

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – March 16, 2019
REVIEW
The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) found support above its 200-day (40 week) average. Sharp V-reversal from the low of January 2019 didn't encounter a pullback/correction. I analyze the price action that manages to consolidate and find support above its long-term average as positive and review the ACWI ETF with a bullish bias. During any pullback or further sideways consolidation, the 200-day moving average at 69.9 levels will act as support.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – March 9, 2019
REVIEW
The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) found resistance at 71.3 levels. Strong rebound that started in the beginning of January is now being interrupted with a correction. This week's price action tested the 200-day moving average. We are likely to see more choppy price action around the 200-day average, possibly in an attempt to form a reversal chart pattern. It is still early to call for the developing chart pattern a head and shoulders reversal. ACWI ETF is now in a trading range between 66.3 and 71.3 levels.
