U.S. Stocks Plunge On Inflation And Overvaluation Concerns, H.K. Stocks Retreat

2023-02-27 | Daily Analysis ,Daily Insight ,Securities

U.S. Stocks 

Fundamental Analysis: 

While rising inflation expectations were the immediate cause of the plunge in U.S. stocks, another force also played a role in their second-longest weekly decline since last May: overvaluation.

As earnings growth expectations for the S&P 500 grow increasingly weak, stocks are valued near higher levels than they have been in nearly 30 years, putting them at risk of a sharp downside.

The stock market bubble could pop at any time as inflation further fuels the Fed’s determination to aggressively raise interest rates.

The S&P 500 accumulated a 2.7% decline last week, extending its downside trend and potentially erasing all of its 2023 gains in the aftermath.

Technical Analysis:

(Dow 30, 1-hour chart) 

Execution Insight: 

The Dow pays attention to the 32781-line. If the Dow runs stably above the 32781-line, then pay attention to the suppression strength of the 32975 and 33233 positions.
