The rate of unemployment in the Euro Zone in November has fallen down to the 8.7% from 8.8% as it was expected.

POLITICS AND ECONOMICS MINGLE

Once more politics and economics have gone hand in hand to be the main characters of the session. Rodrigo Rato has come forward in Congress and has blamed Zapatero’s government of the start of the crisis and the real estate bubble. Also it has pointed a finger to the Bank of Spain and the minister Luis de Guindos as the ones who hold responsibility over Bankia’s fall.

On the other hand, PSOE wants to remodel the pensions system. Its leader, Pedro Sánchez has an idea to create two new ones to refinance the deficit that the piggy bank destined to elderly people’s salaries has. One of the would aggravate the financial transactions and another would apply to the bank. Sánchez trusts in raising 1,600 million euros.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

José María Rodríguez, the technical analyst in Bolsamanía, assures that “in fairness the session this Tuesday doesn’t vary what was said yesterday. The key is still in the important resistance of the 10,600 points. Only over this resistance can we dream.”

And in theory over the resistance we would have a clear double bottom with a minimum projection (in theory) of the maximums of 2017, this the 11,185 points. “But in the meantime we don’t have anything”, points out the analyst. For now in the short term we can’t rule out a correction that will gets us closer to the support bench of the rise last Friday in the 10,300 points. Among some of the blue chips of our market there should be a special alert to the resistances they present, BBVA in 7.4 euros, Telefónica in 8.55 euros. “Over these we would have interesting signals of the strength of these titles and therefore of our index,” concludes the expert.
