    E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index (NQ) Futures Technical Analysis – No Resistance, but Closing Price Reversal Top Will Stop Rally Temporarily

    With the index closing at an all-time high, there is no resistance so the emphasis will shift to the chart pattern. If buyers take out 7414.25 then trader reaction to last week’s close at 7393.00 will determine the direction of the index this week.

    Weekly Market Outlook: 16-22 July 2018

    Is Trade War Really A Good Thing For The US? The uncertainty surrounding the trade war between the U.S. and China has eased recently after the two world largest economies have signaled their intention to sit at the negotiation table. In addition, investors also started to realize that the effects of tariffs have substantially exaggerated.

    The Week Ahead – Geo-Politics to Continue Driving Risk Sentiment

    S&P 500 Index Posts Best Close Since February, Dow Finishes Over 25,000

    With just over 5 percent of S&P 500 companies reporting thus far, earnings growth is up 16.37 percent. U.S. import prices fell the most in more than two years in June. U.S. consumer sentiment hit a six-month low as tariff worries more than doubled, dampening optimism over the economy. The preliminary data showed that consumer sentiment fell to 97.1, its lowest level since January. The Federal Reserve said Friday it expects low unemployment and rising inflation will keep it on track to raise interest rates at a gradual pace over the next two years. Finally, Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic said Friday he favors one more interest-rate hike this year, given current economic conditions.

    E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index (NQ) Futures Technical Analysis – July 13, 2018 Forecast

    Based on the early price action, the direction of the September E-mini NASDAQ-100 index today is likely to be determined by trader reaction to 7382.75. The index is running a little hot, averaging more than 32 points per day since the main bottom at 6956.00. It needs to correct into a Gann angle soon or the rally will burn out and the next break will be even more dramatic.

    Could the Trade War Get Out of Hand?

    As noted previously, broader US markets fell yesterday amid escalating US-China trade tensions. The NASDAQ 100 (QQQ) fell 0.55%, while NVIDIA (NVDA) and Apple (AAPL) fell 2.3% and 1.3%, respectively. A vicious cycle seems to be building up in the trade war.

    Investors Will Absorb Latest Tariff News, but Chinese Retaliation on U.S. Crude Will Be Game Changer

    We’re going to stick with our outlook for higher stock prices because earnings carry more weight at this time than does the trade dispute. I don’t think we’re going to see any significant sell-off in the stock market until the impact of the tariffs starts to show up in the economic numbers, and even after that, in the projections by U.S. Federal Reserve Policymakers. Of course, if China places a tariff on U.S. crude oil imports then it will be a whole new ballgame and time to reassess my bullish outlook.

    E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index (NQ) Futures Technical Analysis – July 11, 2018 Forecast

    Based on the early price action, the direction of the September E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index today is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the steep uptrending Gann angle at 7212.00. This angle held earlier as support. Basically, we’re looking for an upside bias to develop on a sustained move over 7254.50 and for a downside bias to develop on a sustained move under 7212.00. Holding between these two numbers will indicate investor indecision.

    Investors Should Be Watching Guidance During This Earnings Season

    This is a very important point because earnings actually represent stale data. They represent the earnings from last quarter. The third and fourth quarter results will be the first during the period of full tariffs from the U.S. on Chinese goods and the retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods from China. They will tell the actual story about the impact of the tariffs on company earnings. So at this time, investors should be looking beyond last quarter earnings and at any guidance from companies that mention the impact of the tariffs.

    Gold futures are edging lower early Friday with the news about the escalation of the U.S-China trade dispute, taking a backseat to the release of the U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls report at 1230 GMT. Traders expect the headline number to come in at about 195K versus 223K last month. The unemployment rate is expected to remain steady at 3.8%. Average Hourly Earnings are expected to rise 0.3%.

    Stocks Weaker in Asia, RBA Leaves Rates Unchanged, Libya Declares Force Majeure

    The general tone in the global equity markets was cautious as investors continued to monitor the developments over trade. China’s benchmark indexes extended their losses over worries Beijing’s trade relations with the United States are worsening. Concerns over trade relations continued to drive investors into the USD/JPY and U.S. Treasurys. Trade tensions also supported the dollar against commodity-linked currencies, like the Australian, New Zealand and Canadian Dollars. Crude oil is up after Libya declared force majeure on significant amounts of its supply.

    Stock Markets in Asia, Europe Already Feeling the Tariffs Pinch

    We’re going to continue to see reactions and counter-trend reactions in the U.S. stock markets because the direct economic damage from the tariffs imposed on the U.S. appears to be relatively contained, at least for now. However, stock markets in Asia and Europe are likely to start feeling selling pressure now.

The daily chart shows that the way of least resistance is down. If buyers do come in to support the market, the next rally is likely to be labored because of the series of resistance levels.

    Stock Market Rally Today, Could Erase Monday’s Over-reactive Fears

    Usually when these situations arise, the markets take care of any discrepancies fairly quickly so I will assume that a mild stock market recovery will indicate that there is some truth in the matter, but maybe the article went a little overboard. However, a full recovery of Monday’s losses, even if it takes a couple of days should raise some questions about irresponsible journalism by the Journal. We’ll be watching to see if this story pans out.
