US DJIA Tehnic: erupție optimistă ahoy – MarketPulse

Aceasta este o analiză ulterioară a raportului nostru anterior, “US DJIA Technical: Uptrend intact with looming outperformance over Nasdaq 100” publicat pe 3 ianuarie 2024. Faceți clic aici pentru o recapitulare.

On a year-to-date performance basis as of 13 March 2024, the Nasdaq 100 has managed to record a gain of 8.3% that surpassed the return of the Dow Jones Industrial Average of +3.50%.

Interestingly, in the past five days (5-day rolling basis as of 13 March), the laggard Dow Jones Industrial Average has started to play a catch-with with a return of +1.10% that overtook the Nasdaq 100’s loss of -0.70%.

The primary attribution to the current short-term outperformance of the Dow Jones Industrial Average over the Nasdaq 100 has been the lacklustre performance of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) theme play leader, Nvidia (third largest component market cap weightage stock in Nasdaq 100) where its share price has shed -5.6% over the same period.

The ratio chart of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) over the Nasdaq 100 has started to form a potential major basing formation by not breaking below its prior significant November 2021 swing low (see Fig 1).

Also, its 10-week rolling underperformance measured by the ratio’s rate of change has continued to display a bullish divergence condition which suggests a potential looming major outperformance of DJIA over the Nasdaq 100.

Price actions cleared above 20-day moving average

Yesterday, 13 March’s price actions movement of the US Wall St 30 Index (a proxy of the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures) staged a bullish breakout from its prior choppy minor range configuration in place since 23 February (see Fig 2).

In addition, the Index has also surpassed the 20-day moving average which suggests the potential revival of bullish momentum at least in the near-term horizon.

If the 38,930 short-term pivotal support holds, the Index may continue to shape “higher highs” for the next intermediate resistances to come in at 39,400 and 39,610 (also the upper boundary of the minor ascending channel from 14 February 2024 low).

On the flip side, a break below 38,930 negates the bullish tone for another round of choppy minor corrective decline that may expose the next intermediate supports at 38,660 and 38,380 (also the upward-sloping 50-day moving average).
