Dow
Jones Industrial Average - This old economy benchmark index
measures the outlook on the New York stock exchange. Last
week we had advocated resistance at the 10,600 - 10,675 levels &
support at the 10200 ( click

performed as compared to the Nasdaq and is likely to see resistance at the
10750 levels. Expect the 10,280 levels to be a good short term base for
this index in the near term.
Your
call of action - Since Indian investors are not
allowed to trade in overseas markets, this is a pure
academic study.
Nasdaq
- This new economy benchmark index measures the outlook on the Nasdaq
exchange. This index has made a new 30 month high ( highest since July '
01) recently and has been advocated by us as making a saucer formation.
The relative strength of this index is surpassing the Dow. Last week,
we forecast that the 2180 then 2230 levels will be a short term
target and the Nasdaq has closed at 2140 also the intra week high. ( click

after improved employment data and the short term target of 2230 should be
expected.

FTSE
- This index measures the outlook on the London stock exchange. As we have
been forecasting a 4300 level support, this index is making a base in the
near term and showing short term strength ( click

this index is also that of an under-performer as compared to the US
markets. The oscillators are pointing towards a consolidation at present
levels - only above a conclusive close above 4560 levels, will a new rally
start.
