Limpsfield's Weekly Chart View |
As expected, the strength in the UK continued last week with the FTSE breaking through the psychological 5000 barrier. The US markets were also strong, continuing the recovery from the previous week and clawing back the losses made at the start of the year. There is nothing at the moment to suggest the UK & US strength is going to seriously falter.FTSE 100 Intraday FTSE
Last weeks target for the FTSE was 5000 and Wednesday saw the index move above this level- the highest point seen since June 2002. The obvious next target is 5100 which is less than 60 points away. Support was seen on Wednesday and Thursday around 4975 so that is the first level to watch if we see any weakness. Dips remain buying opportunities with only a break below the lows for the year around 4765 signalling the trend since last August is in trouble. This is a market that remains strong with no signs of weakness for now and the recovery is expected to continue.
Dow Jones Intraday Dow
Last week saw the US continue its recovery since the sharp sell off in the first few weeks of the year. The next target for these markets is a run back to the highs from the end of last year in the 10,850/900 area on the Dow with a break through here setting up 11,000. Any weakness is expected to be short-lived - the big short-term support comes in at 10,660, seen last Wednesday.
Have a good week!Limpsfield
