We released our European Weekly Summary yesterday. Click here to access the report. Key points from it include:

  • European stocks rose for the seventh consecutive week on optimism that central banks will soon pivot to interest
    rate cuts.
  • The Stoxx 600 remains in a Confirmed Uptrend with three distribution days. Last week, it logged another strong
    performance, up 114bps, closing at a new all-time high and holding on to its 10-DMA throughout the week.
  • Leadership remains extended and technical indicators, such as the 12-week new high/new low ratio, trade at an
    extreme. We recommend taking gains in extended names (stocks trading more than 20% from their recent bases)
    and focus on leaders (RS line rising) that are breaking out of early-stage bases.

Yesterday,

  • European markets bounced off the 10-DMA again, gaining 100bps following the European central bank’s dovish
    commentary. While interest rates remained unchanged, inflation is expected to cool down to an average of 2.3% in
    2024 and hit the target of 2% in 2025 as growth is expected to stall to 0.6% by 2024.
  • Health Care led the rally, gaining 3%. It was followed by oversold Mining stocks, which jumped 2.6% on China’s new
    reforms. Rate-dependent Technology continued to rally, up 2%. Travel and Leisure (-0.4%), Retail (-0.3%), and
    Telecommunication (-0.2%) were among the decliners.
  • The stocks are getting extended with the sustained rally, trading 15–20% above their recent base. We recommend
    that investors add positions in names that had strong breakouts from their set bases. Book profits in extended
    names which have started stalling and are starting to break below their 21-DMA.
  • All the three major indices had a positive session. Germany’s DAX 30, France’s CAC 40, and the U.K.’s FTSE 100
