After the technical retracement in equities upside momentum is expected to continue. Tech companies from China might be in focus as some try to bypass US sanctions. Companies like Alibaba and Bytedance continue to train their models in countries like Malaysia or Singapore in order to get access to chips manufactures by Nvidia. Stocks of ASML Holding from the Netherlands have also pushed up and are currently trading near their all-time- highs.

Market talk

Markets remain volatile with in particular Silver pushing higher. The positive momentum can also be seen in Gold, both supported today with the weakness of the Greenback. Some signs of strength of the Dollar might cause recent trends to weaken as the Dollar index is currently attempting to move higher. The JPY is losing steam against other currencies. The USDJPY looks positive based on short-term charts similarly to the EURJPY and GBP both pushing to the upside. On another note also the NZDUSD has been moving higher but is currently capped at the 50- moving average based on the daily chart. Both currencies, the AUD as well as the NZD, indicate that the risk sentiment might continue to remain intact pushing stocks to the upside.
