Stock markets retract today after the opening of the US market. After the strong valuations achieved in the last two sessions (for example the DAX appreciated by 4.90% since the minimum of Tuesday) it is expected that some investors realize capital gains. On the horizon still hover various uncertainties, which justifies the prudent stance of investors. In addition to the political and economic situation in Greece, the weakness of the Russian economy is still a latent threat.

In Europe, equity markets traded with some gains. The publication of the Eurozone inflation, measured by the consumer price index, will be one of the last relevant data that the ECB will consider before the day of the meeting, 22 Jan.

S&P 500 closed with sharp devaluations, for the fifth consecutive day. The strong rises that Americans indexes reached in the second half of December led to a certain complacency among investors before the threats that had been forming on the horizon. Yesterday, these threats have become evident. The continuous fall of oil price and the heavy losses suffered by European markets led to strong selling pressure on Wall Street. The fact that the American indexes have reached successive maximums during the second half of December also made them vulnerable to the occurrence of corrections.Th...

European stock markets traded without a clear trend and nervousness dominated investor sentiment. Yesterday, European shares suffered heavy losses, explained by the confluence of several factors: the fall of the oil, the depreciation of the Euro and the situation in Greece. Sometimes financial markets tend to underestimate the importance of a factor, but when its ramifications become evident give you an exaggerated importance. Most likely, the previous day fits this definition. Technically, the area of 9500 is an important support for the DAX, to be the most representative index of the Europea...

American indices closed lower on the last day of the year, breaking the upward trend started in mid-December and that allowed the S&P to appreciate 8% in 6 sessions. Falling US stocks may be explained by a number of factors. The first is that many fund managers, who were able to follow the positive performance of the US stock market during 2014, realized capital gains, thereby creating selling pressure. This trend was particularly visible in the utilities sector, which was the best performer of the year with a rise of 24,28%. The second is that other investors materialized, for tax pur...

Tomorrow starts the period that corresponds to the so-called “Santa Claus Rally”. This period includes the last five sessions of the year and the first two of the new year. Over the past 28 years, the S & P had a positive performance 25 times with an average gain of 1.74%. However, as the S & P already appreciated 6% in the last four sessions, it is likely that the Santa Claus Rally this year has already been at least partially anticipated. There is a pattern that has repeated in the last 30 years, during the month of December. This pattern consists of a rise in maj...

Stock markets are trading high, giving extension to the recent rise. At the present time there is a favorable environment generated by the FED’s statement, which is now enhanced by the reduction of threats posed by a number of factors. In Asian markets, crude oil traded higher, as Saudi Arabia argued that in 2015 the oil prices will recover due to a more dynamic world economy. The recovery of oil spread to other raw materials, thus it’s expected a recover in oil and mining sectors, at least in the short term. In the currency market, the ruble also recovered against the dollar.

The rise in the stock markets was supported by Yellen’s statement (and the consequent reaction of US markets) and also the appreciation of the ruble against the dollar.The FED introduced the concept of “patience” in its statement by stating “that could be patient regarding the beginning of the standardization process of its monetary policy.” However, the big surprise was that the Central Bank has derived the expression “for a considerable period of time” when referring to keeping interest rates at historically low levels.
