While everyone is speculating whether we have a bounce in a bear market or a first leg of a new bull market, the S&P 500 has gained 17.6% and the Nasdaq 23.2% since the turn. We believe that it is the first leg of a new bull trend with those gains?

There are warning signs to be ready for a China-Taiwan war?

Global Indexes

S&P 500

The S&P 500 is fast approaching its 200 day moving average. It needs to break this resistance to be in a true bull market, but I am sure we will see lots of profit taking at that level?

NASDAQ

The NASDAQ did break a trend resistance and is also on its way to its 200 day moving average.

DAX

The DAX is approaching trend resistance with its 200 day moving average still some distance away.

HANG SENG

The HANG SENG broke its short term negative trend and EMA8 lines with the other resistances still far above on Friday. Today we have another uncertain doji on the EMA8 line caused by negative news.

NYSE & NASDAQ Stocks

Albemarle Corporation

Albermarle Corporation has only one objective and that is to attack top resistance! Take notice where the turn took place. Both Frontrunner and the MACD gave divergence and both broke positively about 2 days apart.

Bank of America Corp

My favorite banking share, Bank of America, made another 2 gaps breaking the $34 resistance. Notice where the first breakaway gap was. Its Trend Factor has also turned positive with these gains. This must be the longest J-curve I have seen in a long time with hardly any down movement. Divergence was given at the turn.

JSE Stocks

JSE All Shares

The JSE All Shares hesitated again with profit taking after the strong previous day.

Mondi plc

After correcting back to its positive trend line, Mondi broke the 5 day correction in one day with its 10.3% gain. Notice that its Trend Factor has also turned positive for the first time since February.
