DOW JONES - DJI Elliott Wave analysis (day chart).

DJI Elliott Wave technical analysis

Function: Counter Trend.

Mode: Corrective.

Structure: Orange wave 2.

Position: Navy blue wave 5.

Next higher degree direction: Orange wave 3.

Details: Orange wave 1 appears to have completed, and now orange wave 2 is active and nearing its end. The invalidation level for wave cancellation is set at 38,474.41.

The DOW JONES (DJI) Elliott Wave Analysis on the day chart reveals a counter trend in progress, currently in a corrective phase. The primary structure under examination is orange wave 2, which is actively unfolding. Earlier, orange wave 1 was deemed complete, signaling the transition into the corrective stage of orange wave 2.

Currently, the market is positioned within navy blue wave 5, which is a part of the larger wave structure. Expectations suggest that orange wave 2 is approaching its end. Once complete, the market is likely to shift into orange wave 3. This transition implies that, after the current correction, the index could resume a more impulsive upward movement in line with the larger wave pattern.

The analysis indicates that the counter trend, which has temporarily paused the broader trend, is almost complete. The next significant move is projected to be an upward shift as the market transitions into orange wave 3. This phase is expected to continue the long-term bullish outlook for the DOW JONES index.

Key Technical Levels: The wave cancel invalidation point is set at 38,474.41. If the market drops below this level, the current Elliott Wave structure will be invalid, requiring a reevaluation of the wave count and market position.

Summary: The DOW JONES is nearing the end of a corrective phase, with orange wave 2 expected to finish soon. The next anticipated movement is the continuation of the bullish trend as orange wave 3 begins. This suggests potential upward momentum for the index following the current correction.

DOW JONES - DJI Elliott Wave analysis (weekly chart)

DJI Elliott Wave Technical Analysis

Function: Trend.

Mode: Impulsive.

Structure: Navy blue wave 5.

Position: Gray wave 1.

Next lower degree direction: Gray wave 2.

Details: Navy blue wave 4 appears completed, and now navy blue wave 5 is underway. The invalidation level for wave cancellation is set at 38,474.41.

The DOW JONES (DJI) Elliott Wave Technical Analysis on the weekly chart suggests that the market is in a trending phase, characterized by an impulsive mode. The primary structure is navy blue wave 5, which indicates the continuation of the upward trend, with the market currently positioned in gray wave 1. This suggests that the current upward movement is part of the larger wave structure.

Navy blue wave 4 is considered complete, and navy blue wave 5 is now unfolding. This phase points to further upward movement following the completion of wave 4. The current position within gray wave 1 signals the beginning of a new impulsive wave, though gray wave 2, a corrective phase, is expected to follow after the current upward movement. The anticipated gray wave 2 will bring a temporary correction before the potential resumption of the bullish trend.

The analysis identifies a key invalidation level at 38,474.41. If the market drops below this point, the current Elliott Wave structure would be invalid, requiring a reassessment of the wave count and market outlook. However, as long as the market stays above this level, the upward trend within navy blue wave 5 is likely to continue.

Summary: The DOW JONES index is in a bullish trend, currently moving within navy blue wave 5, following the completion of wave 4. The market is positioned in gray wave 1, with gray wave 2 expected to follow as a corrective phase. The invalidation level is 38,474.41, and remaining above this level supports the continuation of the upward trend.

AUD/USD bounces off weekly low on Israel-Lebanon ceasefire

AUD/USD recovers slightly from the weekly low during the Asian session on Thursday as a new Israel-Lebanon ceasefire keeps a lid on the safe-haven US Dollar. Meanwhile, the US and Iran remain at odds over key issues, which, along with hawkish Fed expectations, act as a tailwind for the buck. Furthermore, diminishing odds of an RBA rate hike in June cap the currency pair as traders keenly await the US NFP report on Friday.

USD/JPY remains close to 160.00 intervention threshold on Mideast tensions

USD/JPY struggles to find acceptance above 160.00 and retreats from a one-month high during the Asian session on Thursday amid fears that authorities will step in again to prop up the Japanese Yen. Furthermore, a new Israel-Lebanon ceasefire caps the US Dollar and supports the currency pair. However, renewed US-Iran tensions favor the USD bulls amid Fed rate hike bets and also hold back the JPY bulls from placing aggressive bets amid economic risks stemming from the Middle East conflict, suggesting that dips are likely to be bought into.

Gold bounces off one-week low; upside seems capped on Iran uncertainty

Gold recovers from a one-week low touched during the Asian session on Thursday, as news of an Israel-Lebanon ceasefire acts as a headwind for the safe-haven US Dollar. However, renewed hostilities in the Gulf, along with stalled US-Iran peace talks, keep geopolitical risks in play and should support the USD. Moreover, US-Iran tensions remain supportive of higher Crude Oil prices, fueling inflationary concerns and bolstering bets for higher interest rates for longer. This should cap the non-yielding bullion and warrants caution for bulls.


Bitcoin drops below $65K amid reinforced bear market signals

Bitcoin dipped further below $65,000 on Wednesday, with onchain data from Glassnode signaling a market firmly in a bear phase. The decline has pushed prices back into a key valuation range between the Realized Price and the True Market Mean. Glassnode noted that a key shift in market structure has also emerged.

The upside-down math of debt
In 2010, Professors Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff published a paper, Growth in a Time of Debt, which instantly went viral. The main thesis of the paper was that once a government's debt-to-GDP ratio crosses above 90%, a financial crisis and default are around the corner.
Recession on paper: What really moves the Canadian Loonie now?

Statistics Canada handed the headline writers a gift and the analysts a headache. Real GDP shrank 0.1% on an annualized basis in the first quarter, and with the fourth quarter of 2025 revised down to a 1.0% contraction, that is two negative quarters in a row, the textbook definition of a technical recession and Canada's first since the pandemic.
