Daily Report: 26 January 2021
Equity & FX
- ECB’s statement on USD strength halted the downward trend for the day. Next few days will be critical for the dollar, as new economic reports come out that might establish a trend going forward. If expectation are above estimates, then dollar might be off for another rally.
- Equity markets have taken a pause, most likely waiting for a trigger event, which might be in the next few days.
- All the Reddit hype on small stock shorted stocks might end like 2000 Tech bubble.
Personal Notes
- Long Term view is rates will never rise, so no matter what the report might be, we may witness bullish equity market and bearish dollar.
- Biden’s speech about his policies tends to be quite extreme, we have to wait and watch to see if the execution is of the same level.
Current Positions
- Long DJI/SPY/QQQ
- Long XLU/XLP/XLY/XLV/XLK
