Primary Uptrend in Eurostoxx 50 Intact

EQUITIES

The trend condition in S&P E-Minis is unchanged and remains bullish. The recent move down highlights a short-term corrective cycle and last week's sell-off reinforces this condition. The contract has breached bull channel support drawn from the Jan 17 low. The primary uptrend in Eurostoxx 50 futures remains intact and recent weakness is considered corrective. The move down is allowing an overbought condition to unwind. The break of support around the 20-day EMA suggests potential for a deeper retracement.
