Week Ahead

 





Thoughts on Week Ahead:
Week 26 Feb 2024


The stock market witnessed several significant developments this week. Firstly, Amazon joined the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), potentially attracting increased flows alongside established giants like Apple and Disney. 


Secondly, prominent figures like Jeff Bezos and Nvidia joined forces to fund a startup developing humanoid robots. This investment highlights the potential for artificial intelligence to expand beyond its current applications and create new revenue streams for technology related companies.


Meanwhile, the S&P 500 maintained its upward trajectory, reaching new all-time highs. The 4,900-5,000 zone is identified as a crucial support level for the index.


Finally, the Chinese A50 index experienced a positive momentum shift this week, prompting increased focus on tactical trading opportunities within the Chinese market. This development suggests potential renewed investor interest in the Chinese stock market.


Headlines for the week:
- Corp Earnings (Berkshire Hathaway, Salesforice, OCBC, Capitaland Invest, CityDev, Seatrium, ST Eng, SATS, ComfortDelgro)
- US FED officials speaks, PCE, ISM Mfg report

Wyckoff's Law of Effort

Law of Effort Wyckoff's Law of Effort states that on any single trading day (or week depending on time frame), huge volume (effort) push by participants should see huge price movement, resulting in a wide spread (long body). This is a basic principle of effort and result. However, as per Singtel's case study, we saw huge selling volume on 11 May, yet the price action only shows a narrow spread (small body). This divergence of effort and result in Wyckoff's Law of Effort principles, indicates possible exhaustion in selling or hidden buying. Thus, with a lack of weakness, Singtel should continue trading range bound for the coming days or weeks till further strength or weakness is observed. Swing Traders who trades range can consider positions at 3.70-3.72, with exit target 3.76-3.78.

Keppel DC REIT (AJBU): Expect price to trade towards S$2.00

Our stop level is set below S$1.72. Disclaimers Apply
