Equities are mixed this morning, the UK’s UK Index outperforming its Wall Street peer while Germany’s DAX languishes in the red. The UK blue-chip index is being assisted by a bounce in oil helping the heavyweight Oil majors and a mixture of gains from Banks (HSBC, LLOY) and Defensives (RS, VOD, ULVR, NG, DGE). This is offsetting weakness in metals prices which have peaked after their recent surge, weighing on Miners (RIO, GLEN, BLT, AAL, ANTO). Interpretation of the new US President remains the principal driver for all asset classes (equities, bonds, FX, commodities) especially how it might influence December’s Fed policy decision. Enough faith in Trump to go ahead and hike?
The UK 100 is trying to engineer a breakout beyond yesterday’s 6815 highs but has work to do. The DAX 30 has turned back from its recent visit of 10800 channel ceiling highs. Dow Jones Futures remain above rising support at 18880, albeit back from yesterday’s fresh record highs just shy of 19000. Gold could be in the midst of a bullish complex inverse head & shoulders reversal back to $1250, if it can break above $1230.
