GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – June 2, 2018

REVIEW


Benchmark for Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) continues to consolidate in a tight range. Last 4 month's consolidation can be identified as a possible symmetrical triangle. Symmetrical triangle is a neutral chart pattern. Price can breakout in any direction. Strong resistance stands at 73.90 levels. Support, formed by both the lower boundary of the symmetrical triangle and the 200-day (40-week) moving average stands at 71 levels. Last 4 month's consolidation is taking place inside the 2 year-long uptrend channel. Long-term trend is upwards. Read More

REVIEW


Global equity markets is getting closer to a strong directional movement. Tight consolidations on both the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF suggest breakouts can result in a trend period. Consolidations are followed by trends and vice versa. Both ACWI and EEM are trading above their long-term moving averages and inside the boundaries of multi-month long uptrend channels. Breakdown below the long-term averages and the lower boundary of trend channels can result in a larger scale correction. At this point, with the current available information, we can conclude that the long-term uptrend is still intact. We are very close to the completion of last quarter's tight consolidation.

REVIEW


Global equity markets remain in an uptrend. The iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF is trading above its long-term average. Over the past 2 years the ETF has been moving in an upward trend channel. However, past 4 month's price action is now becoming more clear as a sideways consolidation. The ACWI ETF is possibly forming a 4 month-long symmetrical triangle with the upper boundary acting as resistance at 73.9 and support at 71.2 levels. Until the recent consolidation is resolved in one direction we will expect more choppy price action. A breakdown will confirm the 4 month-long symmetrical triangle as a bearish continuation chart pattern. Such price action will also take out the lower boundary of the trend channel and the 200-day (40 week) moving average and suggest lower prices. A decisive break above 73.90 levels will keep the long-term uptrend intact and push the ACWI ETF towards 77-78 area (previous high).

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – May 12, 2018

REVIEW


Global equities experienced renewed strength during the week. Weekly candles on both the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF opened at the lowest and closed at the highest point suggesting buyers domination throughout the week. ACWI ETF is breaking out of its 4 month-long tight consolidation. The benchmark for Global equity markets performance has been in a steady uptrend. Recent tight consolidation took place above the long-term average and the lower boundary of its 2 year-long trend channel. The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index weighed down by U.S. Dollar strength, still managed to hold on to its 200 day (40 week) average and rebounded from the lower boundary of its 2 year-long uptrend. Both ETFs are in a steady uptrend.

GLOBAL EQUITY MARKETS – March 31, 2018

REVIEW


Global equity markets are still holding above their long-term support levels. A benchmark that I'm following for Global equity market performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) rebounded once again from the 200-day (40 week) moving average and the lower boundary of its 2 year-long trend channel. The benchmark for Emerging Markets equities performance, the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM) is trading above its long-term average and still far from the lower boundary of its multi-month long uptrend. A breakdown below the lower boundary of the trend channel and the 200-day average at 70.3 levels for the ACWI can result in further weakness. Until we see a breakdown, we will expect the uptrends to resume.
