Resolve Posted March 20 Author Share Posted March 20 TSLA analysis: Price Returns to Above the $170 Level, But for How Long? After forming a low of the year on March 14, the TSLA share price managed to rise above the USD 170 level — investors reacted positively to Tesla’s decision to increase prices for electric vehicles in the US and Europe. However, the TSLA stock market remains under pressure: the TSLA price performs noticeably worse than the S&P 500 index; the price forms a downward channel (shown in red); Goldman Sachs analysts cut their forecast for Tesla shares to USD 190 from USD 220 for the next 12 months due to problems with production and sales. Yahoo writes that investors are not happy with Musk's attitude. The fall in Tesla shares could quickly stop if the company gets a “real CEO” or Musk changes his position and returns to work and positively promoting the brand. What is the market outlook?

Resolve Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 The price of the S&P 500 set a historical record amid news from the Fed On March 14, we wrote: “The US500 stock index market is showing signs of positivity, indicating that an attempt to overcome the resistance of 5,200 points with a new record high may be made in the near future.” Yesterday's event created the momentum that allowed the bulls to do this. On Wednesday evening it became known that it was decided to keep the interest rate at 5.5% in the US — this was expected. What market participants paid more attention to was the dovish tone of the Fed. Thus, it became known that by the end of 2024 there may be 3 consecutive rate cuts. According to Jerome Powell: → recent inflation data turned out to be hotter than expected; → however, “in fact, the overall story has not changed, it is a gradual decline in inflation along a somewhat bumpy road.” Thus, fears associated with a longer period of tight monetary policy have been dispelled. As a result, the US dollar fell in price against a number of currencies, and the US stock market index S&P 500 soared to a new historical high around the level of 5,250.

Resolve Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 USD/CHF Analysis: SNB Decision Breaks Multi-month Trend According to Reuters, on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos in January, the head of the Swiss National Bank (SNB) Thomas Jordan told the Swiss press that the appreciation of the franc creates problems for exporters. Thus, indicating intentions to weaken the CHF. His words in January seem to be in line with how events are developing — the franc has weakened against the US dollar by more than 6% since the start of the year. Moreover, today, quite unexpectedly, the Swiss National Bank decided to lower the interest rate: actual = 1.50%, forecast = 1.75%, previous value = 1.75%.

Resolve Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 The Yen and European Currencies Strengthen after the Fed Meeting Yesterday's meeting of the US Federal Reserve disappointed dollar buyers. The rate remained at the same level as expected (5.25–5.50%). However, according to the updated FOMC forecast, it will be reduced three times this year by 0.25%, in contrast to four in the December forecast. The 2025 forecast also shows fewer expectations for rate cuts, just three. Naturally, investors' disappointment with this turn of events resulted in sales of the American currency in almost all directions. Thus, the US dollar/yen currency pair rebounded from recent highs at 151.80 and is currently trading below 151.00, the pound/US dollar retested 1.2800, and euro/US dollar buyers managed to strengthen the pair above 1.0900. GBP/USD Weak data on inflation and producer price index in the UK for February, published yesterday, led to the price falling below 1.2680, but by the evening, pound buyers managed to win back losses and test 1.2800. At the same time, today the pair faces an equally important day, rich in foundations. A meeting of the Bank of England is scheduled at 15:00 GMT+3, at which a decision on the base interest rate will be made. Analysts assume that the rate will remain at the same level (5.25%). What is important for market participants will be the number of votes of committee members for a rate reduction this year. If the number of officials who believe that the rate should be reduced at the next BoE meetings is more than one, the pound/US dollar pair may decline to 1.2700-1.2600. Otherwise, the price growth on the GBP/USD chart may resume in the direction of 1.3000-1.2900.

Resolve Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 AAPL Share Price Falls More Than 4% after Antitrust Lawsuit Yesterday, the Department of Justice filed an antitrust lawsuit against Apple, alleging that the company has established a monopoly with the iPhone, which has harmed consumers, developers and competitors. “Each step in Apple's course of conduct built and reinforced the moat around its smartphone monopoly,” the government said in the 88-page lawsuit. The result of news of the lawsuit was a sharp decline in Apple's share price by more than 4%. This is a serious blow to stocks that are already underperforming the broader market. As confirmation, we note that yesterday, the ratio of the S&P 500 index to the AAPL share price set a maximum since November 2021.

Resolve Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 GBP/USD Price Falls to 1.26 after Bank of England Decision Yesterday, the GBP/USD market experienced a day of intense volatility due to a number of news items. According to Trading Economics: → UK retail sales were flat last month after a strong rise of 3.6% in January, contrasting with market expectations of a 0.3% decline. → The Bank of England decided to leave interest rates unchanged. However, its head Andrew Bailey hinted at a potential reduction in interest rates. He noted positive indicators of lower inflation but stressed the need for greater confidence in managing price pressures. Thus, a clearer prospect of easing monetary policy in the UK (which, however, is relevant for many countries) has become a driver for the weakening of the British pound.

Resolve Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 Bitcoin Price Recovered over the Weekend, But Market Anxiety Remains From the point of view of technical analysis of BTC/USD, on Friday evening the price of Bitcoin was near the lower boundary of the ascending channel (shown in blue). This was alarming as it indicated that the market action could result in a weekly bearish candle forming with the price of BTC down by around 5% — something that hasn't happened since August of last year. However, this did not happen, as the price recovered over the weekend, forming rebounds from the lower border of the channel. The lower shadows of the candles are a sign of demand forces. Moreover, the bulls have broken through the downward trend line (shown in black). Will the bulls be able to return the price of Bitcoin to an upward trajectory within the specified trend? Doubts remain. → Bitcoin “still looks overbought,” JPMorgan strategists warned, predicting a decline to USD 42k.

Resolve Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 Big in Japan: Several Years of Failed Stimulus Ends, But Stocks Go Up! Japan's notoriously conservative approach to business practices combined with a world renowned reputation for engineering excellence has been a winning combination for the island nation for over 60 years. A relatively small country was able to successfully market a range of products in many sectors ranging from electronic goods to automobiles to a worldwide audience to the extent that Japanese corporations are now global giants with head offices in various countries across the world and the names of these corporations household names in all continents. An incredible attention to detail, highly educated population and unfaltering work ethic transformed Japan into the ultra-sophisticated nation that it is today, however perhaps surprisingly this commercial dominance has not always equaled a world-beating national economy. Over recent years, the Japanese Yen has been subject to various periods of volatility, and Japanese stocks, once the absolute pinnacle of economic success during the 'Yuppie Years' of the 1980s when there was no internet and heavy manufacturing companies and property development giants were the largest companies in the world. Since the rise of the Silicon Valley tech giants, all of which are a creation of the Internet revolution, however, Japan's indices have been far less of a talking point among traders and investors of the stocks of large companies as the absolute dominance of the 'Magnificent 7' and the halo effect they have created around other internet-based companies, software firms and e-commerce tours de force has changed the entire focus from traditional bricks and mortar companies toward those whose products are in the ether.

Resolve Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 USD/JPY Price Analysis: Consolidation ahead of US News This morning, news about inflation in Japan was published. It did not bring any surprises — inflation in Japan is gradually weakening as expected. Core CPI in annual terms: actual = 2.3%, forecast = 2.5%, a month ago = 2.6%, a year ago = 3.0%. We also note that the official position is aimed at preventing further weakening of the yen, as the USD/JPY price has risen more than 7% since the beginning of 2024 — very close to a 32-year high. Thus, Japanese Deputy Finance Minister for Economic Affairs Masato Kanda yesterday warned that the current weakening of the yen does not correspond to fundamental indicators and is clearly caused by speculation. He concluded that the authorities would take appropriate measures against excessive fluctuations. However, neither verbal interventions nor the publication of Japanese Core CPI values led to strong fluctuations in the USD/JPY market. Why so? From a fundamental analysis point of view, market participants are keeping their focus on the publication of Core PCE Price Index values in the US, as well as the Fed Chairman's speech — both events are scheduled for Friday (at 15:30 and 18:30 GMT+3, respectively). From a technical analysis point of view, the market stabilization is quite natural, since the USD/JPY price today is near the median line of the ascending channel (shown in blue), which describes the trajectory of 2024. The market seems to be cooling down after the RSI indicated it was overbought on March 20th. It is the events of Friday that can bring the market out of the current equilibrium state (despite the fact that Friday is a day off in many countries, volatility can be high).

Resolve Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 The Spacs Are Back! NASDAQ on A High as Trump's Social Media Co Goes Public It seems as though the sensationalism that surrounded the controversial SPAC listings, which suddenly found their way onto the technology-friendly NASDAQ exchange in 2021, was a long time ago. Back at the beginning of this decade, many aspects of business and ways of life that had remained similar for a long period of time changed beyond recognition, and one of them was the admission of 'blank cheque' companies onto the NASDAQ exchange in the form of SPAC entities, with SPAC standing for Special Purchase Acquisition Company. This method of suddenly going from a start-up status to multi-billion dollar publicly traded company within almost no time and with the ability to bypass much of the criteria required for public listing on major exchanges gave rise to the sudden influx of a number of previously unknown entities which had hardly any market share in their industry sector, yet were able to list their stock publicly for millions, sometimes billions, of dollars. That era has passed, and many of those firms have experienced severe depreciation of their stock ever since, which has had some degree of effect on the volatility in the NASDAQ index over the tech stock doldrums the ensuing year. Now, however, with the NASDAQ index flying high and investor appetite for tech stocks well and truly back on track, there is another interesting dynamic which has brought the concept of SPAC listings back into the public arena. Today, the NASDAQ index was trading at 18,398 at 9.30 am UK time, which is another increment on the steady upward direction the index has been building upon all of this year so far since rebounding back from a low point of 14,127 in late November last year.

Resolve Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 The US Currency Corrects after Recent Growth The incoming fundamental data of the past five-day period contributed to the strengthening of the American currency in almost all major pairs. Thus, the pound/US dollar currency pair lost more than 200 pp over several trading sessions, the euro/US dollar pair retested 1.0800, and buyers of the USD/JPY pair managed to keep the price above 151.00. GBP/USD The decision of British officials to leave the base interest rate at the same level did not contribute to the strengthening of the pound/US dollar pair. And the hint from the head of the Bank of England about a possible rate cut at the next meeting led to sharp losses in the pair and a test at the price of the important support level of 1.2600. At the moment, the pair is consolidating just above the mentioned mark. In the case of a positive fundamental background from the UK, the price may correct to 1.2800-1.2740. If the downtrend resumes, the price on the gbp/usd chart may retest 1.2570. Tomorrow at 13:30 GMT+3, we are waiting for the publication of the minutes of the meeting of the Bank of England Financial Policy Committee. A little later, the CBI retail sales index will be published.

USD/CAD is rising and might aim for more gains above the 1.3610 resistance. Important Takeaways for GBP/USD and USD/CAD Analysis Today The British Pound started a fresh decline from the 1.2800 resistance zone.

It cleared the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.2803 swing high to the 1.2575 low. However, the bears were active near 1.2665 and pushed the pair lower again. There was a break below a key rising channel with support at 1.2630. Initial support on the GBP/USD chart sits at 1.2600.

Resolve Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 NIKKEI-225 Analysis Indicates Possibility of Correction from Historically High Levels On March 21, the value of the Japanese stock index reached a historical maximum, exceeding the level of 41,100 points. This was facilitated by: → Weak yen supporting exporters. It increases the value of profits earned abroad for a large number of companies that sell their products abroad and then convert the profits into yen. → Demand for shares of Japanese companies paying dividends. For example, shares of air conditioner manufacturer Daikin Industries rose by 2.82%.

Resolve Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 EUR/USD Analysis: The Price Today Has Set Its Minimum Since the Beginning of March As the EUR/USD chart shows at the start of the European session today, the exchange rate has dropped below EUR 1.08 per US dollar. Tuesday's news contributed to this. According to Nasdaq.com, on March 26, 2024, The Conference Board published a report for March, according to which the CB Consumer Confidence index of consumer confidence dropped sharply: fact = 104.7; forecast = 107.0; previous value = 106.7. Comments followed: “Consumers remain concerned about increased price levels, which dominates the responses. March written responses showed growing concerns about food and gasoline prices.” As a result, the US dollar strengthened (as shown by arrow No. 1). After all, if the published data give grounds to assess inflation as high, then the Fed’s tough policy may last longer.

Resolve Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 Stock Market Analysis: NVDA Losing Leadership? Since the start of the week, the S&P-500 Index (US500) is up about 0.58% while NVDA's share price is down about 3.8%. This is a worrying sign for Nvidia stock investors — could it be a sign that NVDA is no longer the market leader? Dubravko Lakos-Bujas, JPMorgan's chief equity strategist, warned of a potential "surprise" shock to the stock market, Bloomberg reported. He's noticed a trend in recent history where gains in popular momentum stocks like NVDA are often followed by corrections. This situation has repeated itself three times since the 2008 global financial crisis. “One day this may happen completely unexpectedly. This has happened in the past; we’ve had flash collapses,” Lakos-Bujas said in the webinar. “One large fund starts cutting some positions, a second fund hears this and tries to reposition, a third fund is basically caught off guard, and then, you know, we start to unwind more and more momentum.” He noted the potential for innovation in artificial intelligence as a major source of surprise, emphasizing that these opportunities are dwindling and risks are growing in the background.

Resolve Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 Commodities and European currencies Test Key Supports On the eve of the Easter holidays, the main currency pairs have slightly slowed down the development of the main trends and are consolidating near key ranges, the breakdown of which could provoke a change in the vectors of medium-term movements. Thus, the US dollar/loonie currency pair is trading near 1.3600, euro/US dollar sellers are trying to push through the support at 1.0800, and the pound/US dollar pair is once again testing 1.2600. USD/CAD Fluctuations in the oil market and the Fed’s indecisiveness regarding changing the vector of monetary policy contributed to the strengthening of the USD/CAD pair to recent extremes at 1.3600. If buyers of the pair manage to gain a foothold above the mentioned level, the price on the usd/cad chart may continue to rise in the direction of 1.4000-1.3800. Otherwise, another price test of 1.3400-1.3300 is possible. Today at 15:30 GMT+3, the publication of Canadian GDP data for January is expected.
