Index Focus - 29 June 2016

Equity markets are showing no signs of looking back, maintaining their recovery uptrends from Brexit vote lows assisted by a healthy combination of a sector advances contributing to a bullish party. Financials are buoyant thanks to UK banks shares laughing at a Moody’s downgrade. Property names suggest it’s still is a seller’s market. Oil majors are enjoying the sight of oil back around $49/barrel and telecoms are up on Brexit reassurances from Vodafone. Note certain defensive and high-yielding favourites (Tobacco, Healthcare) still performing well. And all this despite a crumbling Westminster and political headwinds aplenty.

The UK 100  has broken above 6250 to test 6300, still in a 4-day uptrend with real potential to revisit 2016 pre-Brexit highs of 6450. The DAX30 continues to grind higher from its Brexit lows, with a break above 9600. Wall Street/Dow Jones futures sit in a 2-day rising channel which has ushered the index above 17500. Gold is back below $1320, in a 3-day shallow falling channel suffering the return of risk appetite and demand for equities.
