DE30: European stock markets bounce back after selloff

10:31 13 May 2022
  • European stock markets trade higher
  • DE30 tests 13,880 pts area
  • Deutsche Telekom (DTE.DE) posted better than expected earnings

Major European bourses rose over 1% on Friday, rebounding from last session’s decline, as investors continued to assess the Fed’s outlook for the year after Chairman Powell signaled 50 bps rate hikes for the next two meetings and Chinese politics hinted Beijing would not be under lockdown. Across sectors, banks, oil & gas, and technology shares are top performers. On the data front, industrial production in the Euro Area fell 1.8% mom in March of 2022, the biggest decline in nearly a year and below analysts’ estimates of a 2% decline, as the effects of the war in Ukraine. 

DE30 launched today's session higher and is currently testing  major resistance at 13880 pts which is marked with upper limit of the 1:1 structure, previous price reactions and 50.0% Fibonacci retracement of the upward wave launched in November 2020. As long as price sits below this level, another downward impulse towards support at 13600 pts may be launched. On the other hand, if current sentiment prevails, an upward move may accelerate towards next resistance around 14200 pts. Source: xStation5
