CSCO daily chart February 2023

Chart

At the end of 2021, Cisco finished an impulsive structure at 64.33 which we called wave (I). From this high, CSCO has been down nearly a year. We can see a zig zag 5-3-5 structure. The first bearish impulse ended at 40.81 as wave a. Wave b bounced and ended at 50.05. To complete the corrective structure, we had another push that fell to 38.73 to complete wave c and wave (II). (If you want to learn more about Elliott Wave Theory, please follow these links: Elliott Wave Education and Elliott Wave Theory).

In October 2022, CSCO had a strong bullish reaction even breaking above 50.05. Therefore, this rupture of wave b makes us to think that the cycle that began at the  high of 2021 ended as wave (II). Up from 38.73, we can see 5 waves which ended at 50.74 and we label it as wave ((1)). Here, we see 3 swings down which form wave (A) at 45.65. From this level, CSCO can continue the rally without any problem. However, market conditions should keep the stock lower, so we are calling a flat 3-3-5 correction. The flat correction should end wave ((2)) above 38.73 and continue the bullish move.

SNB leaves interest rates unchanged at 0%

Swiss National Bank leaves its key policy rates unchanged at 0%, as expected by market particiapnts.

SNB sees 2026 inflation at 0.7% (previous forecast was for 0.6%). The main risk to the economic outlook for Switzerland stems from developments in the global economy.
