MACROECONOMIC AGENDA
Tuesday has begun with the decision of the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to take some measures of adjustment of its monetary policy. These measures include greater flexibility in the purchase of government bonds and the diversification of their investments in exchange-traded funds. Beyond these developments, there have been no substantial changes in the monetary policy of the BoJ, as expected. The Bank of Japan was the first of the three central banks to give a speech this week. Tomorrow it will be the turn of the Federal Reserve (Fed) and, on Thursday, the Bank of England.
"As expected, the Bank of Japan has maintained the official interest rate this morning unchanged at -0.1%, but has introduced the 'term guidance', with the intention of maintaining short and long rates "Very low for a long period of time." The Bank of Japan said that it would probably take longer than expected to reach the inflation target of 2%, "explain the experts at Danske Bank.
In addition to the decision of the Bank of Japan, the calendar has had other interesting appointments. Thus, the GDP of Spain moderates its advance to 0.6% in the second quarter. In the Euro Zone, GDP moderates its advance to 0.3% in the second quarter. For its part, July inflation rises to 2.1% in the Euro Zone. In addition, unemployment in the Euro Zone in June continues at 8.3%.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
According to José María Rodríguez, technical analyst at 'Bolsamanía', the 8,890-point downturn "is no longer relevant". In his opinion, the important thing is that the Ibex already adds four consecutive sessions in which it builds minimum and maximum increases, although "without much joy". "Now what is important is missing, to see if we will be able to leave behind the numerous resistance we have from 9,900 to 10,050 points, the upper part of the triangle," the analyst specifies. Although qualifies that "it seems that it will be easy considering that many heavy titles are already throwing readings of 'overweight':" We may arrive, but we will do it with fatigue, which leaves us little room to try to break the upside hard".
In this scenario, Rodríguez points out that the two large banks could reach the first "real" resistance: the 5.10 euros in Banco Santander and the 6.40-6.45 in BBVA. "It assures us in the message that it is true that we can go up a bit more, but there are many resistances (of significant importance) that we will face soon," he adds. It also refers to the case of Telefonica, which has been turned down this Tuesday from the significant resistance that presents in the last declining maximum (7.79). "There we have a first warning of the fatigue that some of the great titles of our market have", concludes the expert.
