Weekly/Montly Wrap

It's the end of month for Jun. A red sea of blood for all the six major indices I monitored. refer to the first table below, Dow dropped the least with 1.4% or 206 points down, and Shanghai lost the most with 321 points or 14% down. Money outflow from all market reacted to Fed's possible reduce of stimulus plan. China market hit lowest since 2008 financial crisis bottom on banks cash squeeze. SSE closed below 2000 level this month. market sentiment is very weak.

STI closed at 3150, lost 160points or 4.9% in Jun--it's biggest drop since May 2012. Gave back all its gain this year and moreover, below last year end close(YEC) 3167--which is a bearish sign.


STI monthly chart formed a big red candle with a little tails below--which shows rejection to drop further(possible short recovering at month end), the candle is basically very bearish. It just broke below the major uptrend channel at 3190.

There isn't bullish reversal signal yet, 3065(month low) level for downside immediate support. Bullish bias if it can rebound above 3167 YEC.
Below table is major indices weekly close. Some window dressing at month end with five indices gain on weekly basis, while SSE dropped another 4.5%.


STI weekly chart below. It formed a green candle after five red candles, finally rebounded. Unlike its monthly chart, its uptrend channel is still intact in short term weekly chart. Will be watch 3167 for more upside or channel bottom as support.

My STI momentum indicator dipped below 60 level this week, indicating extremely oversold.( refer to my previous post). It has bounced back up every time it dipped below 60, since 2008.

Weekly Wrap

For the week, STI dropped another 3.8% or 126 points. closed at 3184.7, do remember 2012 YEAR END CLOSE is at 3167, we are just 18 points away.

US market rebounded with 200 points gain on Friday. It's expected STI should follow as the recent sell-off is overdone. It's obviously to me that the funds are flowing out of Asian market and go back to the US. All the three US indices are green and all the four major Asian indices are in sea of blood.


 
Asian major indices performance over the past three weeks.
 
STI daily chart. the current level 3167( Yr2012 close), 3190(yr 2010 close) and 200MA @3184 together should provide STI a major support. A technical rebound is expected.

STI Hit New Low Since Jan

STI hit new low today, dragged down by Japan and Hongkong market. It hit new low since Jan 24 this year, closed at 3243.43, lost 47.92 points. In past nine trading days, STI has lost over 200 points or about 6% from its year high around 3450. It's really rare to see this kind of dive. I think its overdone.

In big picture, STI below its 20 and 50ma, today's closing level 3243 is just above its Jan resistance 3235( first circle from left in the chart below), now turns to possible support. 200ma major support is at  around 3200 level.

STI Hit Two-month Low

STI hit low of 3260.12 in the opening today. Hit new low over past two months. My bias will be changed to bearish if it closed below 3280 this week. STI now trading back to its "normal zone" 3320-3280.

Weekly/Monthly Wrap

For the week ended May 31,  STI had its biggest drop in a year, lost 81.8 points or 2.4%. Its previous big drop was May 2012, which lost 3.6% each week in the first two weeks 2012Yr.

Take a look at below Index weekly performance table, STI is the worst index among the six major indices I monitor. Are we over reacted? worried too much to the Fed's debt purchasing? SSE is the only green index with positive gain last week.


Take a look at STI weekly chart, we are back down to its previous resistance level 3207, now turns to possible major support. The general uptrend is well intact. It's expected STI could be "rest" or consolidate in the range 3280-3320, before it resume upside move. I will be looking to slowly load some stocks in coming week.


Below table is the indices monthly performance for May. Do we have the evidence for the famous convention "Sell in May, go away"? Yes but only for HSI and STI. The rest indices are very bullish in fact. For the whole month of May, STI lost 56.8 points or 1.7%, the worst index in May. Iinterestingly, STI dropped the most in last May as well. So...conclusion is we Singaporean a big believer in "Sell in May, go away"?? Err...
