Weekly Market Outlook:
Pfäffikon SZ, Switzerland – The now canceled takeover/merger troubles between Unilever and Kraft Heinz brought a lot of imagination in the market. The bulls saw their right rewarded and have long been blind to (historical) overvaluation. Despite the fact that different indices are pushed up, the quality of the market remains thin. Stock market price increases proceed gradually, with price falls, investors take the elevator; this seems not to be the case right now, although a consolidation seems upcoming.

For next week, investors look mainly to the company’s figures. In addition, attention is given to the minutes of the Fed regarding a possible interest rate hike. According to many investors, Fed President Yellen should use her momentum.
