Index Focus - 13 June 2017

Equity indices are positive, to differing degrees. The UK’s UK Index underperforms on account of GBP reacting positively to hotter than expected UK inflation at 4.5yr highs, putting stocks with international exposure (and the BoE) under pressure. Germany’s DAX outperforms as a result of EUR pulling back from recent highs and a welcome rebound for Tech.

The UK’s UK 100 is higher thanks to Financials (strong UK inflation), LSE (bullish outlook, broker target increases), WPP (UBS bullish), IAG (European airlines positive) and US exposure (CRH, AHT). Holding things back is a mix of Oil majors (oil off highs), RIO (copper pullback) and several defensives. Germany’s DAX is welcoming strength among airlines, Tech, Industry and Financials ahead of tomorrow’s likely Fed rate hike.

The UK Index 100 has pulled back towards rising support at 7505. The DAX 30 rebound from rising support has reached 12750. Dow Jones Futures have pulled back towards their 21240 overnight breakout. Gold is nearing the apex of a bullish falling wedge at $1261.
