Market Direction Week of January 30, 2017©













Market Direction: BULLISH alert issued 11/10/2016

Last Week Review: The Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow) closed at 20,069 on Wednesday, Jan. 25, making it the first time the Dow has closed above the 20,000 milestone. The Dow rose further on Thursday to close at a record high. Other broad U.S. stock market indexes (such as the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq) closed at record highs on Wednesday. Better economic growth and rising earnings, combined with improving investor sentiment, have also pushed international stocks higher. We think global stocks will stay on a rising trend, but there's likely to be more volatility ahead, too. In addition, interest rates have risen, pushing bond prices down.

How the market finished last week, the S&P 500 up 1.0%, the Nasdaq up 1.9%, and the Dow up 1.3%.

This Week: The week ahead will see key announcements from four central banks, providing insight into monetary policy around the world. We also get a swathe of PMIs from China, the US and the UK, while the week culminates in the monthly US jobs report.

The week just past has seen a resurgence in the US dollar, which imperils uptrends in the Aussie, euro and sterling. US markets touched a record high, and whether this sees fresh buying will be an important topic for investors around the globe. 

Economic Calendar: Personal Income and Outlays (1/30), Consumer Confidence (1/31), Employment Index Cost (1/31), ISM Mfg Index (2/1), Employment Report (2/3)
Some of the major earnings announcements on deck: AAPL, FB, MO, CMG, COP, V.
