The Vanguard FTSE Europe ETF (VGK) was an early-year relative winner as foreign equities generally outperformed the US stock market. Then came the March pullback which brought about a risk-off environment and flight to the dollar - both factor hurting relative returns of VGK. Even with a notable retreat in the greenback and a gradual shift favoring cyclical and...
AMEX:VGK/AMEX:SPY M1 destruction in europe leads to lower european PMI
Such a thought provoking chart. Monthly log scale and chart is forming a symmetrical wedge. There are so many scenarios at play right now that either push Europe into a breakout economy or into a turmoil. No specific trade here or anything. Current chart looks like it will be harder to go much lower here but we'll see.
European stocks were hit hard during the Great Financial crisis of 2008. They have doubled since the trough in 2009 but still below their 50% retracement despite the 2020 relief rally since March lows. Could tech stocks' strength keep them afloat at this juncture? Could European stocks derail the world markets' recovery or have they become the 'new Japan' that...
Europe has been crap for a while..
Pullback within a rising wedge. Momentum appears to be weakening. Red support and 10 MA has to hold for the up trend to hold.
Living in a rising wedge. Still bullish but need keep an eye on slowing momentum and the red support line.
Successfully retested 10 week MA, bounced up nicely from there this week. Good: RSI and MACD all healthy. 10 week MA trending up, price well above 10 week MA. Less good: still in the box. RSI and MACD weakened a little bit.
This week's down turn was not that surprise (given the RSI channel resistance and 40 week MA resistance). Overall trend is still up (judging by 10 week MA, RSI channel direction, and a positive MACD, also the upward blue trend line). I will start to worry if it loses 10 week MA and falls out of the RSI channel.
We will see how it will behave at that possible resistance.
double bottomed and now breaks out, also closed above 1o week MA. RSI breaks out and MACD positive.
Still stuck with a falling wedge but RSI broke out. EWG already breaking out so VGK may follow it soon.
