TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
"Good closing of our index that, finally, is placed over the 9,800 points with clarity", points José María Rodríguez, technical analyst of Bolsamanía. Now the next resistance is found in the 9,940 points, the March maximum. And above and over we have the 10,210 points, the weekly bearish hole at the beginning of February.
As for the 'blue chips' "we are still waiting for Telefónica to overcome the resistance of 8.25 euros and set course once and for all to the resistance of 8.60 euros," says the analyst. Meanwhile the banks are taking over, with Santander and BBVA at the head, and the steelmakers (Arcelor and Acerinox). "However, I am left with the strength of the Dax and Euro Stoxx 50 futures that on Tuesday overcame significant resistances and that, far from taking a break, it continues to climb positions," he adds.
So much so that since the end of March accumulate a revaluation close to 8%, quoting already far from the key supports, the minimum of Holy Week. From what can be deduced that, punctual corrections aside, everything points to Europe looking in the coming weeks to recover everything lost by heading to annual highs. "I want to think that at some point the Ibex will be infected by the strength of its neighbors and recover that gap that today exists between the large European indexes and ours," explains José María Rodríguez. In any case "the really important thing is that everything points to the scare lived from the end of January to the end of March has been a correction (something deeper than usual) within an impeccable uptrend bottom trend that today remains intact, "concludes the analyst.
