GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – May 19, 2018

REVIEW


We are seeing a decoupling in terms of performance in the Global Equity Markets. Developed markets continue to remain strong whereas Emerging markets start to weaken. The charts below show both the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF in a steady uptrend. However, over the past few weeks, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF managed to rebound from its long-term average but the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF struggled around the strong support area. Failure to recover from strong support area can result in a breakdown and larger scale correction for the Emerging Markets. The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF is testing the 200-day (40 week) moving average.

REVIEW


During trending markets, there is "consensus". During corrective markets there is "indecision". Current market environment is corrective in nature (choppy price action) and as a result there is indecision between the buyers and the sellers. The iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF formed a "doji" candlestick pattern. A similar candlestick pattern can be seen on the Nasdaq 100 Index.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – February 3, 2018

REVIEW


2018 started with strong weekly gains. The steady uptrend on the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF took a steep shape in January due to back to back long weekly candlesticks. This week's sharp reversal gave back last two week's gains. From a classical charting perspective we don't have enough evidence to call the latest reversal a "market top". Multi month-long uptrend is still intact. We are currently experiencing a reversion back to the averages or to the long-term trend line supports. Global equities can retrace further and major equity benchmarks can still remain in their long-term uptrends. We will need more evidence in the following weeks.
