Weekly Market Outlook February 11, 2018

“Volatility is not synonymous of risk but – for those who truly understand it – of wealth” Francois Rochon

Pfäffikon SZ, Switzerland – Investors experience volatility, which is normal on the global stock exchanges. An increasing interest rate would be the reason for the sharp stock price results; the delusion of the day reigns, as often happens. Our core indicators that measure the (technical) health of the market are still listed in green and have a bullish character. This does not alter the fact that the market has issued a first warning signal. Nevertheless, for the time being, we assume that equity investors are more likely to face a short-term dip than with an interim or long-term top. An actual crash is not expected in a market environment that is driven by a melt-up.

The coming week will again revolve around many company figures from leading companies.
