Morning Report – Wednesday 11th August
FTSE to open at 7,172 (+11 pts)
The S&P 500 closed almost flat yesterday as the market formed a small ‘spinning top’ or ‘doji’ candle – signalling indecision as the Senate debate over Joe Biden’s $3.5 trillion spending plans entered a second day.
US bond yields rose for their fifth consecutive session with traders continuing to price-in tightening US monetary policy following last weeks strong employment data.
Overnight, it’s been a quiet Asian session with stocks, commodities and currencies treading water.
S&P 500 | +0.10% | Neutral for UK stocks |
Hang Seng | +0.12% | Neutral for UK stocks |
Gold | +0.21% | Neutral for UK stocks |
AUD/JPY | +0.04% | Neutral for UK stocks |
US 10yr Yield | +2.25% | Bullish for UK stocks |
The FTSE finally pushed up into the long-term resistance zone we’ve be highlighting for several weeks.
However, you need more than a resistance zone to call the market short, and given yesterday’s strong close, we’re seeing no evidence of resistance taking hold just yet.
