"Therefore, what the Ibex has done has been to fill in (not close) this gap in its entirety and from there it has begun to recover positions clearly, and this movement has been accompanied by a rebound, by the cent part of BBVA and Banco Santander from the annual minimums, the 5.78 euros and the 4.54 euros respectively, In fact, any potential recovery of our Ibex 35 happens because yes or yes such supports are respected "; adds the technical analyst.
"And not only have they been respected, but the upward reaction after touching them has been overwhelming. The most important thing is missing, confirming the figure of the two big banks, for which we need the prices to jump above the June highs. : 6.27 in the case of the Basque entity and 4.90 euros in the Cantabrian entity ", concludes Rodríguez.
