TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Very interesting session that the Ibex leaves us this Tuesday. "We have a clear rising session." We have fallen by 0.75% during the first hours of the session to close with increases of over 1%, "drawing what is known as a bullish envelope". A figure that usually brings a rebound in the short term with it, explains José María Rodríguez, technical analyst at Bolsamanía.com
But now "the most important thing is to check if we will be able to close in the short term over the resistance of the 9.335 points". To do so, and with the permission of the weekly bearish hole of 9,410 points, "it can be said that our index would be giving shape to an inverted 'head and shoulders', figure of bullish implications that if fulfilled should throw us above the annual highs (9,588), "he adds.
However, "European futures are clearly higher than our selective's ones, by specifically 2%, and we already have the Dax and Euro Stoxx 50 futures on the threshold of the resistances at the annual highs", the highs from the start of May. This weakness of our Ibex " that compared to our neighbors, is suffering the weakness that the banking sector continues to show in general terms". We have too much specific weight in the banks and these "are weighing us down in recent weeks" concludes the expert.
