Index Focus – 4 June - 4 June 2015

Equity markets in the red this morning as the global bond rout sees higher bond yields compete with income stocks, uncertainty regarding Greek debt negotiations persists and traders adopt a more cautious tone ahead of tomorrow’s latest US Jobs report which sill surely give rise to fresh USD volatility on account of the read-across to Fed rate rise expectations. UK 100 broken below early June support, DAX testing May lows and Wall St futures dropped back below 18000. Gold holding $1180 support.

Where next?
  1. Will the index rise towards highs of 7127? or;
  2. Will the index fall beneath lows of 6670?

UK 100   broken back below 6930 neckline of bearish double-top pattern and early June support. Potential for pattern to complete around 6800. Note market tetchiness regarding Greek debt negotiations and payment deadlines, with any positive news/speculation potentially seeing markets spike.
