STOXX50 Maintains Bullish Momentum — Targeting $5,605ICMARKETS:STOXX50 remains within a well-defined ascending channel, with the price showing a rebound from the midline of the channel. This suggests a continuation of the broader uptrend, with the next potential target near 5,605, aligning with the upper boundary of the channel. A minor pullback could present a potential entry opportunity if buyers maintain control. Confirmation through bullish candlestick patterns—such as bullish engulfing or hammer formations—may strengthen the bullish case and drive momentum toward the 5,605 level. A breakdown below the channel’s lower boundary would invalidate the bullish outlook and could indicate a potential shift in market direction. Monitoring how price reacts around the midline will be crucial for assessing continued bullish momentum. Remember, always confirm your setups and trade with solid risk management. Best of luck!

EuroStoxx50:Pulse of Europe Under Schnabel's Magnifying GlassBy Ion Jauregui - Analyst ActivTrades The EuroStoxx50 index, which brings together the 50 largest companies in the euro zone, is today at the epicenter of financial attention. In an environment marked by uncertainty and transformation, the appearance of European Central Bank (ECB) member Isabel Schnabel stands as one of the key events of the day, as her comments on monetary policy could determine the direction of the market. What follows is an analysis of how these factors intertwine and affect European equities. Isabel Schnabel's speech is particularly relevant for investors, as any hint on the future of interest rates can generate significant movements in the EuroStoxx50. The expectation is whether the ECB will lean toward tightening policy or remain cautious in the face of a complex economic outlook. Schnabel's response will be interpreted as a barometer for adjusting investment strategies across the region. In parallel, the performance of the EuroStoxx50 acts as a reflection of European corporate performance. The companies that make up this index cover sectors that are crucial to the eurozone economy, and their financial results are an indication of the resilience of the corporate fabric in the face of global challenges and changes in monetary policy. In this sense, the index not only summarizes the performance of large caps, but also synthesizes investor sentiment in a highly volatile environment. Finally, European equities are directly affected by this changing scenario. With expectations about the ECB and fluctuations in corporate earnings, movements in the valuations of companies reflected in the EuroStoxx50 become more pronounced. Investors, attentive to the signals coming from both Schnabel's appearance and the evolution of economic indicators, will need to carefully weigh the impact on their portfolios to seize opportunities and manage risks in this dynamic European landscape. Technical Analysis Putting the magnifying glass on the chart we can see that since February 4th there has been a bullish breakout over its long term channel after piercing the 5,150 points touching highs at 5,544 points. The correction since February 19 seems to be reflecting a healthy corrective move which coincides with the RSI partially reducing the overbought level to 63.25% from 81.43% the other day. This week's political results in Germany may have been part of the key to this correction. These moves currently position the index in a very wide range uptrend. The middle of the range is around 5350 points. This value can be used as a pivot point to continue its ascent. If it does not hold this price zone, it could fall towards the 5,035 points being its previous support. It should be noted that the control point (POC) is located in the area of 4,900 points. In short, today the EuroStoxx50 is the thermometer of the European market. Isabel Schnabel's appearance promises to offer valuable clues about the future of monetary policy, while the index's response and stock performance will reflect how companies are adapting to an ever-changing environment. This is a crucial day for those who wish to understand the pulse of the Eurozone economy and adjust their investment strategies accordingly. ******************************************************************************************* The information provided does not constitute investment research.

The Peace Dividend: Rotation into the European Defense SectorBy Ion Jauregui - ActivTrades Analyst The start of 2025 has brought with it a change in the narrative of financial markets. While the United States continues to be marked by political uncertainty and protectionist measures, Europe has experienced an unusual inflow of capital, largely driven by the possibility of a ceasefire in Ukraine and the so-called “peace dividend” narrative. The impact of the peace dividend The concept of the “peace dividend” refers to the reallocation of economic resources that occurs when geopolitical tensions subside, which in theory should benefit traditional sectors such as infrastructure, consumer and technology. However, the market has shown a different reaction: far from weakening, the defense sector has continued to attract investors. European companies such as BAE Systems, Thales and Rheinmetall have seen their share prices rise, reflecting the perception that countries in the region will continue to increase their defense spending despite a possible ceasefire. The reconfiguration of the geopolitical scenario does not eliminate the need to maintain strategic investments in the arms sector, especially with the strengthening of alliances such as NATO and the growing strategic autonomy of the European Union. - BAE Systems plc (Ticker AT: BA.UK): London Stock Exchange. - Rheinmetall AG (Ticker AT: RHM.GE): Frankfurt Stock Exchange. - Thales Group (Ticker: HO): Euronext Paris. - Leonardo S.p.A. (Ticker AT: LDO.IT): Milan Stock Exchange. - Dassault Aviation (Ticker AT: DSY.FR): Euronext Paris. - Indra Sistemas, S.A. (Ticker AT: IDR.ES): Madrid Stock Exchange. - Saab AB (Ticker AT: SAABB.SE): Stockholm Stock Exchange. - Kongsberg Gruppen ASA (KOG): Oslo Stock Exchange. - Hensoldt AG (HAG): Frankfurt Stock Exchange. - QinetiQ Group plc (QQ): London Stock Exchange. The effect on European indices The Stoxx Europe 600 has recorded positive flows in the first weeks of the year, with an emphasis on industrial and defense stocks. The CAC 40 and the DAX have shown rallies, driven by the revaluation of companies in the arms and security-related technology sectors. The key question for investors is whether this asset rotation is a structural trend or simply a speculative rebound. Although recent flows suggest an increased interest in European equities, the persistence of these movements will depend on the evolution of US trade policy, the stability of energy prices and the response of European governments to new security and defense challenges. Opportunities and risks For investors, the current situation presents both opportunities and challenges. Defense investment has proven to be resilient throughout history, but the risks of economic fragmentation stemming from US trade policies could generate volatility in the markets. In this context, active managers may benefit from the greater dispersion of returns across sectors, while passive investors may struggle in the absence of a clear macroeconomic trend. The key will be to assess whether the capital inflow into Europe is a reflection of a cycle change or a short-term tactical move. Euro50 Analysis If we look at the chart of the EuroStoxx50 we can see that it has had a bullish evolution during last week closing the week flat. Since February 4th a widening of the averages has been developing. RSI is currently in its middle zone. The control point (POC) is well below the current price of 5,486 points around 5,345 points, a price zone visited last week. It is very likely that the index will try to test the highs of 5,520 points reached last week, if the index accumulates enough volume its next milestone to reach would be close to 5,625 points. If the index does not pierce the price will test its current low of 5,450 points being its second support zone at 5,380 points. Conclusion The “peace dividend” is not leading to disinvestment in the defense sector, quite the contrary: the markets are betting on reinforced security in Europe. The question remains open: is there a structural rotation towards defensive sectors or simply a speculative rally in an environment of global uncertainty? Developments over the coming months will be crucial in determining the direction of these movements on European markets. ******************************************************************************************* The information provided does not constitute investment research.

European Stocks Rise for Sixth Consecutive WeekEuropean Stocks Rise for Sixth Consecutive Week According to the Eurostoxx 50 index (Europe 50 on FXOpen) chart: → The index has gained over 6% since early February. → It is now trading at an all-time high. Factors driving market optimism: → Expectations of a ceasefire in Ukraine. → Trump’s decision to delay tariff implementation until April, signalling room for trade negotiations. Technical Analysis of the Eurostoxx 50 Index (Europe 50 on FXOpen) Price movements outline an ascending channel (blue), with key observations: → The index remains in the upper half of the channel, reflecting strong demand. → February’s sharp rally has formed a steeper rising channel (purple). → After breaking above resistance at 5,370, a retest (indicated by an arrow) confirmed this level as support. With the RSI indicator in overbought territory, a potential pullback is plausible—perhaps as investors look to secure profits before the weekend amid a busy news cycle. In this scenario, the 5,444 level, where the lower purple trendline intersects the blue channel’s median, could act as a support zone. Trade on TradingView with FXOpen.

EUR50 Index Wave Analysis – 11 February 2025 - EUR50 index broke the resistance area - Likely to rise to the resistance level 5500.00 EUR50 index recently broke the resistance area between the key resistance level 5300.00 (which stopped the previous minor impulse wave iii in January) and the resistance trendline of the wide up-channel from November. The breakout of this resistance area accelerated the v-wave of the active sharp upward impulse wave C. Given the clear daily uptrend, the EUR50 index can be expected to rise to the next resistance level 5500.00 (target price for the completion of the active impulse wave C).

STOXX50: Bullish Momentum in Play - Is 5,345 the Next Target?PEPPERSTONE:EUSTX50 remains within a well-defined ascending channel, with price currently bouncing off a key support area. This suggests a continuation of the broader uptrend, targeting the upper channel boundary. A short-term pullback could offer a potential entry opportunity. If buyers step in and confirm strength through candlestick patterns like bullish engulfing or hammer formations, momentum could drive price higher toward the 5,345 level. A breakdown below the channel's lower boundary, however, would invalidate the bullish outlook and signal a potential shift in market direction.

EuroStoxx 50: Critical Support to WatchThe EuroStoxx 50, one of Europe's most important benchmark indices, has been showing signs of weakness in recent days, making it crucial to keep an eye on certain support levels. According to Joan Cabrero, technical analyst at Ecotrader, investors should be vigilant about the index's performance around 4,800 points, a key support level. Should the index lose this zone, the next critical level is at 4,688 points, which corresponds to the lows of recent months. The EuroStoxx 50 has struggled to overcome the bearish guideline that has guided its consolidation over the past nine months, with significant resistance at 5,050 points. This short-term failure in its attempt to overcome that guideline reinforces the need to keep an eye on the December and November lows, which will be critical in determining the short-term trend. Strategy for Investors For investors following Ecotrader's strategy, the recommendation is clear: do not reduce exposure to the European stock market as long as the EuroStoxx 50 does not lose the aforementioned support levels. The strategy is to wait for the index to approach these lows before considering new purchases. In summary, the levels to watch on the EuroStoxx 50 are: - Key support around 4,800 points. - Critical support around 4,688 points. - Resistance at 5,035 points. The RSI is currently at 53.55%, the Check Point (POC) around 4,972 points. Investors should keep an eye on these levels to make informed decisions and adjust their portfolios according to the evolution of the index.

Eurostoxx 50 Index Rises Above 5000Eurostoxx 50 Index Rises Above 5000 As indicated by the chart of the Eurostoxx 50 index (Europe 50 on FXOpen), its value climbed above the psychological level of 5000 points in early 2025. The strength of demand may be driven by portfolio rebalancing or long-term investor expectations, as today’s news for the European stock market was negative. According to ForexFactory: → industrial orders in Germany dropped by 5.1% month-on-month (expected: -0.3%); → retail sales in Germany fell by 0.6% month-on-month (expected: +0.5%); → France reported a worsening government budget balance. A technical analysis of the Eurostoxx 50 index (Europe 50 on FXOpen) chart shows that: → the current value is above a resistance line (shown in red), which dates back to spring 2024; → since then, bulls have made two attempts to break above this line (marked with arrows) but failed to sustain the gains. It is possible that further negative economic news from Europe could trigger bearish activity—if so, we may witness a third unsuccessful attempt to hold above the red resistance line, potentially resulting in the formation of a false breakout pattern.

The Shifting Global Investment Landscape in 2025The global investment landscape is experiencing a significant shift as Europe, China, and Latin America navigate unique challenges while regions like India continue to attract substantial inflows. European funds, in particular, are facing headwinds , losing $56 billion in outflows during 2024. This is due to economic stagnation, industrial struggles in key markets like Germany, and challenges in the green energy sector. The European Union's measures, including tariffs on Chinese imports, are seen as short-term solutions, failing to resolve underlying structural issues. Additionally, lower returns compared to the U.S. and uncertainty surrounding geopolitical and economic policies have made the region less appealing to global investors. In contrast, China has seen impressive inflows of $130 billion in 2024. However, this recovery is driven by a low base effect following years of economic disruption, including the real estate crisis and pandemic lockdowns. While sectors like electric vehicles and technology remain attractive, investors are cautious about China's political and economic uncertainties. Latin America, too, struggles with declining investments, especially in Brazil, where political instability and fears of populist policies have dampened investor confidence. India, on the other hand, has emerged as a standout performer. Record-breaking inflows in 2024 highlight its growing appeal, driven by structural reforms that simplify market access and an expanding middle class that underpins strong domestic growth. India offers investors a "pure" business proposition, relatively free from the geopolitical risks that burden other regions like China and Brazil. Looking to 2025, the U.S., India, and the Middle East are positioned to lead global investment flows. The U.S. remains resilient, particularly in mid-cap equities, while India’s growth narrative continues to attract capital. The UAE and other Middle Eastern markets are also gaining attention as emerging hubs for infrastructure and technology investments. Success in 2025 will depend on navigating geopolitical risks and targeting regions with sustainable growth potential. NSE:NIFTY SSE:000001 SP:SPX

European Funds Losses: Key Global Investment Trends for 2025The global investment landscape is shifting significantly, with European funds experiencing large-scale outflows compared to other regions, such as the U.S. and Asia. Amid mounting economic challenges, geopolitical uncertainties, and the evolving preferences of institutional investors, the question arises: why are investors looking elsewhere, and what opportunities upcoming ahead? Europe's Economic and Investment Challenges The outflows from European funds are primarily driven by structural and macroeconomic issues. Key factors include: 1. Industrial Decline : Core economies like Germany face factory closures and rising unemployment, eroding investor confidence. 2. Energy Competition : Europe's green energy sector is under pressure from cheaper Chinese alternatives. EU responses, such as tariffs, are seen as stop-gap measures rather than long-term solutions. 3. Broader Instabilities : Geopolitical issues, migration concerns, and ongoing conflicts exacerbate uncertainty, leaving Europe less competitive compared to U.S. markets. Even with lower yields and declining rates, Europe has struggled to match the appeal of U.S. treasuries, offering 5%+ returns, and equities in more stable regions. China: A Recovery with Risks China has seen significant inflows in 2024, attributed to economic recovery after years of challenges, including real estate crises and the pandemic's fallout. While sectors like EVs and tech attract global attention, investors remain cautious due to the nation's political and economic volatility. Notably, the rise in Chinese inflows partly stems from a low base effect following prolonged underperformance. Latin America: Declining Investor Sentiment Latin American markets, particularly Brazil, face persistent challenges. In October 2024 alone, Brazil recorded a $2.5 billion equity outflow, as fears over populist policies and political instability rise. According to majority, the region's risks now outweigh its growth potential. India: A Standout Performer India stands out as a rising star in global investment, achieving record-breaking inflows in November 2024. Key reasons for its appeal include: 1. Market Accessibility : Reforms have simplified access for institutional investors, elevating India from an "exotic" to a mainstream market. 2. Structural Growth : With a rapidly expanding middle class and robust domestic consumption, India offers strong internal growth stories, independent of geopolitical narratives. 3. Stability and Predictability : Compared to China and Latin America, India's business environment is perceived as more transparent and less risky. 2025 Investment Outlook Looking ahead, investors should consider these key regions and trends: • The U.S. : Continued strength, particularly in mid-cap equities. • India : Sustained inflows as reforms and economic growth attract capital. • The Middle East : The UAE is emerging as a hub for infrastructure and tech investments. Meanwhile, Europe, China, and Latin America face considerable challenges. Navigating 2025 will require a focus on growth markets and a deep understanding of geopolitical risks.

Global investment trends: Europe loses capital, China and IndiaReasons for record outflows from European funds (-56 billion dollars) The main reason for European fund outflows is the slowdown in economic growth of the region. After the energy crisis of 2022-2023, EU economies have never been able to return on a path of sustainable growth. High interest rates, which the European Central Bank continued to keep in place to fight inflation, have had a negative impact on business activity and investment attractiveness. In the face of such challenges, yields in Europe have become lower than in the US. Moreover, European companies, despite the isolated successful cases, do not have a clear advantage. For example, if we take Germany, which has always been considered to be the flagship of Europe, we can see, that it is clearly losing momentum: plant closures , mass layoffs , and industrial problems are all systematic indicators. Europe currently is a region with a set of isolated appealing ideas, not a place where it is worth investing broadly. The aforementioned green energy sector, for example, in theory could be Europe's strength, but in practice China offers similar technologies for cheaper, and imposing protective duties is not a long-term solution. Moreover, the energy dependence on Russian gas and current support for Ukraine seem to be policies without a concrete plan for the future. It's precisely why the money is going to the States: everything is predictable there, yields are higher, and the dollar is stronger. Factors influencing investor behavior In regards to China in 2024, it started to come back to life after a rather difficult period. China was an ideal investment destination for a long time, thanks to double-digit growth rates. But after the pandemic and a series of crises - such as the mortgage crisis - the pace has slowed and confidence in the market has been shaken. Meanwhile, China's auto industry and a number of other sectors continue to grow . The $130 bln invested in Chinese funds is more the effect of a low base and pent-up demand than a real breakthrough. Yes, China remains an important player, but now with a few caveats: it is no longer the magnet for investment that it used to be. Reasons for increased demand for Chinese funds (record $130bln in funds this year) India, on the other hand, looks extremely promising . Since the beginning of 2024, $20 bln has been invested there, which is a record amount. This is due to both structural reforms and the fact that India is perceived as the new China: a fast-growing economy with a huge population. In contrast to China, there is less geopolitical risk, and when investors invest in an Indian company, they are really buying a business, not a political or ideological story. Comparison of India (+$20bln, the best record of all time) and Brazil (withdrawals -$3.3bln Funds) It's different with Brazil. 2024 was a year of political turbulence for this country. Municipal elections and fear of populism have caused investors to withdraw money from the country. No one wants Brazil to become a second Argentina. Geopolitical risks are the main reason for capital outflows from Brazil and Mexico. Forecasts for fund demand next year Looking ahead to 2025, the US mid-cap, the broad market in India and new opportunities in the Middle East, such as the Emirates , are worth paying attention to. The US will continue to attract investment, especially with its strong dollar and clear politics, and Europe, as it seems, is finally losing its charm. NSE:NIFTY TADAWUL:TASI

EUROSTOXX broke the DownTrend Line.The EURO STOXX 50, which serves as a benchmark for major eurozone companies, has been trading sideways in recent months, fluctuating between a strong support level at 4,730 and resistance at 5,099. After multiple tests of the support, the price has formed candles with long lower shadows, indicating a rejection of lower prices and buyer interest in maintaining levels above this critical point. Recently, the index provided a significant technical signal by breaking the Downtrend Line that had been in place since previous peaks. This breakout is a strong indicator of potential short-term growth. Main Scenario: Bullish With the Downtrend line broken, the price now has the potential to target higher levels on the daily chart. The 5,000.00 area is the first key resistance to watch, followed by the previous peak at 5,099, which would confirm a stronger bullish trend. Potential Bullish Movement: Ideal Entry: A pullback to around 4,830.00 (near the broken downtrend line), followed by a bullish candle in that area, could signal a buying opportunity. Primary Target: 5,015.00. Secondary Target: 5,099.17. Stop Loss: Below 4,740, with a more conservative option at 4,727.00 (indicating loss of support). Important Indicators: Monitoring volume during the rally is crucial; low volume could indicate weakness in the breakout. Alternative Bearish Scenario Despite the bullish technical scenario, the market may reverse if the support region at 4,727.48 is broken. A consistent daily close below this level, accompanied by significant volume, would invalidate the bullish structure and could attract strong selling pressure. In this case, a possible Sell Opportunity could appear if a daily candle closes below the 4,727.00 level. Possible targets would be: 4,500.00: Intermediate psychological and technical support. About 22700 points. 4,400.00: Next relevant support, observed in previous months. About 33700 points. A Stop Loss could be put around 4,770.00, about 4300 points. Warning Signs: Heightened global risk aversion, a declining macroeconomic situation in Europe, and ongoing weakness in industrial and consumer sectors could intensify selling pressure. Macroeconomic Context Europe faces a tough landscape. Germany, the region's primary economic driver, is grappling with an industrial slowdown and reduced consumption, impacting the competitiveness of its companies. These issues have lowered growth projections for the eurozone. Additionally, escalating tensions with Russia present a significant geopolitical risk. As the European Central Bank seeks to balance inflation control with growth stimulation, uncertainty in both geopolitical and economic spheres continues to affect the markets. The upcoming interest rate decision on December 12 may provide clearer guidance on the European Central Bank's future actions.

EuroStoxx 50: Sideways StrategiesMarket Context Recent trading sessions have been marked by expectations regarding the US Federal Reserve 's monetary policies. The market anticipates that the US central bank will adopt a less aggressive stance in its interest rate cuts. This backdrop has boosted the dollar, which has gained nearly 4% from last month's lows, as reflected in the Dollar Index, which measures the currency's performance against a basket of international currencies. This more consolidated environment has impacted both the Ibex 35 and the EuroStoxx 50, with both indices coming dangerously close to their technical supports. For the Ibex 35, key support lies between 11,560 and 11,600 points, the break of which would indicate a bullish exhaustion. EuroStoxx Analysis The EuroStoxx 50 (Ticker AT:EURO50), one of Europe's benchmark indices, is less than 1% away from its first key support, located around 4,900 points, coinciding with the delta buying pressure zones and the checkpoint zone (POC) of the price bell. The proximity to this technical level has generated concern among investors, as a possible breakout could trigger a more prolonged consolidation phase in the European market. Given that the shift of the sideways range will be pronounced for a longer period. Currently the movement between the highs of 5,310.41 and the support marked in February and reinforced in August in the area of 4,669 points. If we follow the current movement, everything seems to indicate that the crossing of the 50-average over the 200-average that began in the last week of September is losing strength. And if we accompany it with the Bollinger bands support the idea that the market seems to be highly lateralized. Outlook for the EuroStoxx 50 In the case of the EuroStoxx 50, a drop below 4,840 points could lead to a broader price retracement confirmation, and would take the index to the September lows at 4,700 points, which coincides with the lower zone of the sideways range. However, this drop is not necessarily perceived as a negative signal, but as a possible buying opportunity in the European market. As long as the index does not break the September lows, the bias will remain bullish, offering opportunities for investors looking for re-entries in the European market.
