Where Are We Heading To?

Where is our KLCI heading to?

Everyone is asking this multimillion dollar question!

In order to answer this question, we must first look at the S&P 500 chart, as that will determine our market in the near term. According to the above chart, we are at the cross road whereby the S&P is below the 50 day moving average but was supported by the 200 day moving average. This spells some uncertainty over the market in the short term. Now we have to observe for the next 2 weeks whether we can stay above both 50 day and 200 day moving average, if yes, it means the bull trend continues. However, it S&P 500 breaks below these two moving averages, it means we have the "death cross", which is bad news for our KLCI as well.

Of course, we must not forget the Greece re-election is around the corner, this Sunday, as all eyes will be on the outcome whether the New Democratic Party (New Democracy, in support of the euro zone) and the radical left-wing coalition (Syriza, left-wing, opposed to rescue) will win?

Happy investing,
