DJIA-30 EXTENDS BREAK ABOVE its 200-week MA of 10987, now at 11090 we have seen this in the week of April 22, Aug 7 when the Dow did have an INTRAWEEK-break of its 200-week MA only to fall back below later in each of those 2 weeks. Meanwhile, S&P500 never broke above its own 200-week MA during those occasions (April & Aug). S&P500 currently trades at 1177, which is 1.8% below the 200-week MA of 1197. Incorporating further equity gains with USD weakness has been sided on by my CAD-positive calls, repeatedly calling for parity on USDCAD, based on improving technical formations in crude oil (see current article on DIAMOND UPSIDE BREAK-OUT & DIAMOND DOWNSIDE breakout in USDCAD). Thus, I still call for 0.9970, 0.9920 in USDCAD, with prev trendline resistance of 1.0180 now sliding to 1.0140. GBPCAD FINALLY FALLING BELOW 1.6 as BoE's Miles talked down GBP.
