European markets slid lower at the open on Friday, continuing the corrective move registered yesterday on most benchmarks, as a risk-off mood prevails. Spikes in virus infections added to the lack of progress regarding the new stimulus package in the US is a perfect occasion for investors to take some profits ahead of the weekend. However, this bearish correction shouldn’t drive markets very deeply as they have already cleared major resistances at the beginning of the week -further evidence of the strong bullish sentiment on the long-term view. The French CAC-40 index has seen one of the best performance so far, even if prices could technically go deeper before registering any rebound. The first support can be found over 5,230 pts and then 5,165 pts by extension, while the 5,450 pts/5,525 pts stays as the main objective on the short-term basis.
