The local market is down a further 100 points at lunch today on the back of lower overseas markets and talk of more trade disruption. A double top type pattern followed by a similar 15 per cent correction to that from late last year would put the market at around 5,850 points.
The Dow Jones Index futures market fell heavily last night and bounced up from a possible support zone later in the session.
The gold price rose on strong volume and is yet to move above the current downtrend line after finding a base close to previous tops.
A few shares in the educational portfolio are close to or below the initial buy price like Whitehaven Coal and are close to being sold.
CSL has had an amazing run and is getting closer to moving below the recent uptrend line where some traders could consider selling. No trend lasts forever. The company lost 25 per cent late last year and rallied more than 55 per cent off the first higher low.
Silverlake has been one of the better performers over the past three days after bouncing up from a support zone.
Select Harvests has also done well after posting record production numbers.
A small mistake in last week’s table has been rectified.
