THE STOCK MARKET IS PREPARING FOR A TORNADO

On Monday, US stocks rose on a cautious positivity. Among the gainers are MSFT shares (nearly +3%), as Microsoft plans to buy a stake in the London Stock Exchange Group.

However, today, the release of data on inflation in the US is planned, tomorrow, we will hear from the Fed, and on Thursday, from the ECB. And moods will swirl like a tornado.

Reuters reports the opinion of Patrick Spencer, vice chairman of Baird investment bank, who believes that if today's consumer price index is weak, this will serve as a driver for the growth of shares.

The two-day chart of futures for the S&P 500 index shows that the price of the contract is near the upper line of the descending channel.

The bulls tried to push the price higher (1), but followed by (2) the response of the bears. We have a bearish engulfing pattern. Although it is not perfect in form, it clearly makes it clear that the strength of offers is high near the resistance line, and the bulls need momentum. Undoubtedly, favorable news on inflation can give it.

To take advantage of trends in the US stock markets, consider enlisting the services of a reliable broker like FXOpen. (http://fxopen.com/)

USDJPY AT 4-MONTH LOW

Today it became known that the Bank of Japan has made adjustments to its policy on the government bond market.

Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said the move is a fine-tuning of the current ultra-loose monetary policy, not a stimulus cut.

"Overseas market volatility has heightened from around spring ... [T]his has caused some distortions in the shape of the yield curve. We, therefore, decided that now was the appropriate timing to correct such distortions and enhance market functions."

In response to the decisions of the Bank of Japan, the yen rose sharply. The USDJPY fell to mid-August levels, breaking through the December support.

Note that the USDJPY chart shows an important trend curve (1) that has been in effect for most of the year. And she, too, has already been pierced by the bears. From a technical point of view, there is reason to believe that this line may now act as resistance.
