EQUITIES

Eurostoxx 50 futures outlook remains bullish and the contract is trading at its recent highs. Price has recently cleared resistance at 4363.00, the Apr 21 high and a bull trigger. The break confirms a resumption of the bull cycle from Mar 20 and a continuation of the medium-term uptrend. This opens 4409.50, the Nov 18 2021 high on the continuation chart and a key resistance. Firm support is at 4263.00, the 50-day EMA. The S&P E-minis trend needle continues to point north. The contract traded higher last week and breached key short-term resistance and the bull trigger at 4206.25, the May 1 high. Clearance of this level confirms an extension of the bull trend from Mar 13. This opens 4244.00, the Feb 2 high and the next important resistance. Key support is at 4062.25, the May 4 low. A move through this level would highlight a bearish threat.
