TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

As global indices deepen their ascent into the green for the year, the path of least resistance appears increasingly to be for higher upside. Volatility is low, the U.S. economy is appropriately neither too hot, nor too cool and the Federal Reserveappears to be more preoccupied with dealing with Trump’s non-banking appointees than about raising or cutting interest rates.

One case in point is the DAX index. After having completed a spectacular head-&-shoulder formation (predicted back in October for our subscribers and again inNovember in 5:40 mins of this video), the index is set to retest 12200 as a minimal upside target. But what comes next? 12500, or even 12700 are equally plausible.
