FNArena has added another video to its Investors Education section on the website by ATW founder and trader Jerry Simmons.
The observation stands on its own merits: the Chinese share market has led global equities and risk assets at crucial turning points since the GFC. Think late 2008-early 2009 and think mid-2010. ATW's Jerry Simmons has picked up on the theme, which might not be unimportant given Simmons' technical analysis shows the outlook for Chinese equities is bullish right now.
In addition to the Chinese equity market, Simmons observes the CRB Index, widely used as a proxy for commodities, has been putting doji bars on price charts. These technical signals often indicate a pending reversal in trend.
While gold is attracting a lot of attention these days, Simmons points out there are two strong major resistance zones at US$1605-1625 and then at US$1665-1695/oz. If the precious metal (or should that be "currency" ?) manages to break through this resistance, there's already another zone of strong resistance waiting at US$1730-1733/oz. Initial strategic support is located at US$1575-1580/oz.
Copper is looking bullish too and it would appear resistance at US$4.42/lb will be put to a test. On the other hand, a break below 4.20 could seriously damage the bullish structure, Simmons believes.
His analysis suggests the outlook might have turned bullish for financial stocks in the US.
