EQUITIES: Stocks Remain Within Range of Recent Highs
EQUITIES
A bull cycle in S&P E-Minis remains intact and the latest shallow pullback is considered corrective. Recent gains reinforce a bullish theme and note that moving average studies are in a bull-mode setup, highlighting a dominant uptrend. Eurostoxx 50 futures traded sharply higher last week resulting in a clear break of 5024.00, the Sep 3 high. This confirms a resumption of the bull leg that started Aug 5 and cancels a recent bearish theme.
