The decline in stock market indices is gaining momentum today. The US100 is down nearly 2% and testing the 50-day EMA, with selling pressure clearly visible in the technology sector. An equally strong technical signal has appeared on the German market, where the DE40 is breaking below the 100-day EMA, which may herald a continuation of the correction in the medium term.

The current wave of sell-offs is part of a global risk aversion driven by expectations regarding macroeconomic data and doubts about monetary policy. Investors are currently limiting their exposure to major indices, fearing increased volatility in the coming sessions. The key to current sentiment will be the nearest technical support levels. A clear break below these levels could intensify selling pressure on global markets.
