A great week for equities … and the show’s set to continue

Equity markets closed last week stronger than they started it and futures broadly project the upward trend to continue today. Nevertheless, China’s latest inflation data over the weekend was disappointingly strong and the news today that China will begin an ultra-long bond selling programme was not enough to support onshore equities today. Hong Kong’s equity benchmark however climbed to its highest level since August 2023. With oil prices moving sideways and precious metals moving higher, our Head of Technical Analysis, Mensur Pocinci, explains what this traditionally means for equity markets, whilst also covering his outlook for other asset classes.
