Morning Report – Tuesday 19th April

FTSE to open at 7,614 (-2 pts)

Yesterday’s low-volatility session in the US saw stocks and bonds tread water while gold touched its highest level in more than a month.

Overnight in Asia, the Hang Seng has dropped more than -2% as traders weigh up Friday’s smaller-than-expected rate cut from the Peoples Bank of China (PBoC).

Looking ahead, we have a busy week of corporate earnings in the US as well as speeches from central bankers.

S&P 500-0.02%Neutral for UK stocks
Hang Seng-2.41%Bearish for UK stocks
Gold-0.15%Neutral for UK stocks
AUD/JPY+1.36%Bullish for UK stocks
US 10yr Yield+27ptsBearish for UK stocks
Regency Risk Barometer Snapshot

The FTSE is set to start the week’s trading at the half-way point between key resistance 7,688 and short-term support at 7,535.

For day traders, this is very much in coin toss territory and we’ll be looking for more decisive signals from today’s price action.
