As expected, global equities rallied slightly to complete structures from January 2012 lows as well as, possibly, November 2011 lows. The stage is set for rapid, substantial declines.
European Banks, shown here on a four hourly chart, have been one of the weakest sectors globally. I expect declines of about 25%, for the sector, in the coming weeks.
NASDAQ100, show here on a four hourly chart completed a longer-term bullish structure in December 2011. Potentially, it could provide a base for much higher levels, however in the medium-term, I expect the rally from December 2011 to correct as much as 8-12%. It is possible that the market will fall much further, but we will have to wait and see the nature of the upcoming decline.
Quite an epic structure is finishing in Emerging Equity Markets (shown here on a four hourly chart of EEM – Emerging Markets ETF). As suggested in an update at the end of 2011, early 2012 saw an impressive rally. While there is certainly scope for further upside (about 4-5%), the structure is very heavy. I suggest extreme caution for longs, and will look to establish shorts.
Finally for today, Russia (here on a four hourly chart) presents an even clearer bearish case.
