Yields, SPY and clearer prospects

S&P 500 came knocking again on low 6,060s, and succeeded – I had an open mind, calling for the best bearish times as over with the China countermeasures announcement – such were the gains for clients the day before, and what about yesterday? The ride towards the resistance was fine in intraday tech terms as the pre-ARM earnings atmosphere allowed for solid daily outperformance. Trading Signals clients benefited greatly on gold resilience and as well on the little noticed oil short call reaching exactly my ultimate daily target of $71.

Where do we go today, is there a pullback or even rug pull coming? That‘s what covers today‘s fast 5min video talking tech outperformance of ES prospects, yields path and S&P 500 breadth lessons among much else.

AMD had been my bearish pick for earnings, but today it‘ll hitch a ride on NVDA coattails. GOOGL tanked as it missed on cloud, META is the (open source) winner, AMZN I‘m leaning a bit bearish (AWS not making its numbers all too greatly). NVDA holding 200-day moving average, is that enough? AVGO stepped into the void, and is doing fine still, I would be cautious TSLA (short-term outlook switched bearish as opposed to the boring bullish financials – this is just a small example of what kind of guidance clients are getting (ARM is closer to being my cup of tea really!). Check Russell 2000 performance, too.

Editor's Picks

EUR/USD flirts with daily highs, retargets 1.1900

EUR/USD regains upside traction, returning to the 1.1880 zone and refocusing its attention to the key 1.1900 barrier. The pair’s slight gains comes against the backdrop of a humble decline in the US Dollar as investors continue to assess the latest US CPI readings and the potential Fed’s rate path.

GBP/USD remains well bid around 1.3650

GBP/USD maintains its upside momentum in place, hovering around daily highs near 1.3650 and setting aside part of the recent three-day drop. Cable’s improved sentiment comes on the back of the Greenback’s  irresolute price action, while recent hawkish comments from the BoE’s Pill also collaborate with the uptick.

Gold clings to gains just above $5,000/oz

Gold is reclaiming part of the ground lost on Wednesday’s marked decline, as bargain-hunters keep piling up and lifting prices past the key $5,000 per troy ounce. The precious metal’s move higher is also underpinned by the slight pullback in the US Dollar and declining US Treasury yields across the curve.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP in choppy price action, weighed down by falling institutional interest 

Bitcoin's upside remains largely constrained amid weak technicals and declining institutional interest. Ethereum trades sideways above $1,900 support with the upside capped below $2,000 amid ETF outflows.

Week ahead – Data blitz, Fed Minutes and RBNZ decision in the spotlight

US GDP and PCE inflation are main highlights, plus the Fed minutes. UK and Japan have busy calendars too with focus on CPI. Flash PMIs for February will also be doing the rounds. RBNZ meets, is unlikely to follow RBA’s hawkish path.

Ripple Price Forecast: XRP potential bottom could be in sight

Ripple edges up above the intraday low of $1.35 at the time of writing on Friday amid mixed price actions across the crypto market. The remittance token failed to hold support at $1.40 the previous day, reflecting risk-off sentiment amid a decline in retail and institutional sentiment.
