The bullish mood continues in Europe on Wednesday with shares extending this week’s advance following gains registered overnight by Asian shares. Today’s boosted market sentiment comes from Washington as investors were happy to see the White House finally confirming an agreement on the Covid-19 response bill with the Senate and pushed prices higher. Even if we are seeing much less volatility on share markets than the weeks before, the trading environment remains blurry and it’s still hard to know if the current rally will turn into a proper recovery or a simple bearish market correction. Most European benchmarks are now getting closer and closer to major resistance levels and, with no significant progress on the fight against the deadly virus, we can expect a sharp reaction when the prices challenge these zones.
All of the European indices are in green territory today with notable gains coming from London to Madrid, which are being driven higher by the financial, industrial and basic material sectors. The Stoxx-50 Index is trading above 2,800pts as well as reversing the trend of its 55-day moving average. However, the market will still have to breach strong resistance at 2,855pts to close the bearish gap opened at the beginning of March.
