Morning Report – Tuesday 8th February
FTSE to open at 7,594 (+21 pts)
Stocks on Wall Street chopped sideways as traders were caught between the countervailing forces of a resurgent economy and a central bank taking steps to fight inflation.
While in Europe, stocks rallied as ECB President, Christine Lagarde said there were no signs that measurable monetary policy tightening would be required.
Overnight in Asia, stocks have had a mixed session with the Chinese-focused Hang Seng falling -1% and Japan’s Nikkei 225 holding in small positive territory at +0.17%.
S&P 500 | -0.37% | Bearish for UK stocks |
Hang Seng | -0.72% | Bearish for UK stocks |
Gold | -0.17% | Neutral for UK stocks |
AUD/JPY | +0.25% | Bullish for UK stocks |
US 10yr Yield | +16pts | Bearish for UK stocks |
Yesterday’s price action saw the FTSE hold its ground, but remain contained within Friday’s range – forming a bullish ‘inside day’ pattern.
The market is now compressed beneath resistance and this tips the probabilities in favour of a breakout.
