Global Indexes

S&P 500

The S&P 500 closed unchanged with an uncertain doji just below its 200-day moving average.

NASDAQ

The NASDAQ also closed with an uncertain doji.

DAX

And also, an uncertain doji for the DAX. These half-day trading days are cause for big uncertainty.

HANG SENG

The uncertainty for the HANG SENG continues with 5 candles on its EMA8 line and then a gap downwards today. It is currently trading on its 50-day moving average. A break below this will put it back in all negative territory. Notice the small bounce on this average line.

NYSE & NASDAQ Stocks

Walt Disney Co

Walt Disney had a small rally due to the appointment of CEO, but as stated in the news, he does not have a ‘magic wand’. Notice the dark red Trend Factor warning to stay away!

Bank of America Corp

Bank of America is also uncertain about next move with 4 small body candles next to each other. The last candle is an uncertain doji.

JSE Stocks

JSE All Shares

The JSE All Shares is just as uncertain with 5 candles touching top resistance. The last candle is a long-legged doji that is traditionally a turning candle that needs confirmation.

Sasol Ltd

Sasol is busy forming a triangle with strong resistances. The top resistance coincides with its 50-day moving average.
