Europe Stock market on the right track

Europe Stock market on the right track

        DAX make an over 10% correction since April due to sudden sell off of Bund. I expect Europe stock market had resumed the rising trend by observing several indicators. Trader should not overlook it and trade on this trend.

        My takeaway is that oversold and pessimistic sentiment will trigger a impressive rally of Europe stock market. In addition, the fundamental is solid under easing environment and expansion phase in economy. 

Update on Bond

Update on Bond

                 Recent bond selloff makes a surprise on more investors. However, I expected and warned that in my previous post (here). In coming second half of year, we will entre cyclical reflationary phase in economy. It is time for last year global easing to take effect on demand and inflation. Bond and Commodity will underperform and outperform among asset class respectively. Bond start to approach oversold level so conservative investor can take some profit and trend follower can use some tools to prepare profit taking and find the opportunity to get into market after correction. It really depends on your trading and investment style.

                    My takeaway is bond is approaching oversold and I prepare to take some profit in short term but bond yield still keep rising in inter meditate term. As a trend follower, I no longer predict what level bond yield will reach in future and see my technical tools to help me to take the profit.
