24 January 2016 – Markets bounced
After 3 weeks of selling, the market were rather oversold. Oil had a reversal and that gave market participants the confidence to get into the market. As the indices and particularly the S&P 500 bounced out of its oversold zone, the question is how far? Are we due for another leg down after the bounce or will the bounce turns out to be something more?
The VIX has fallen to 22.34 as of close of Friday, 22 January as the S&P 500 bounced upward.
The Shanghai Composite Index managed to follow oil prices upward and closed at 2916.56 as oil futures turned around and closed above $30. For the SSE index, the 3000 level is now the resistance level for it to breach. Currently, there is correlation between the US market and the Shanghai market. We have not seen the bottom in the Shanghai market and if that correlation persists, we should see further downside for the US market.
The Nikkei futures had a big day on Friday and gained 825 points to close at 17305. It had reached a low of 15820 the previous day after three weeks of incessant selling. Looking at the daily candlesticks chart, the Nikkei had a Morning Star candle pattern. On the weekly chart, it shows a hammer candle in an oversold zone.
The Week Ahead.
Looking at the week ahead, we have potential market movers. With the recent sell-off in the Nikkei, and the strengthening of the Yen versus the US Dollar, the Bank of Japan might be tempted to announce further monetary easing. The Yen has recently been gaining against the US Dollar which had contributed to the sell-off in the US market.
The FOMC meets this week but there shouldn’t be any surprises coming out of it.
Mario Draghi signaled that there could be further monetary easing in March 2016 conducted by the ECB. A likely result would be the EUR/USD moving lower.
