[Present state recognition of fundamental]
In the US market last week, buying was
dominant, as investor psychology improved, as the year - end shopping battle
was reported to be good. In the medium to long term, there are fears of a
slowdown in the global economy due to confusion of US politics, raise rate by
FRB, the lack of creditworthiness of European banks and concerns about credit
contraction, the economic slowdown of emerging economies such as China, and the
stagnation of crude oil prices. We need continued attention to the geopolitical
risk of the Middle East and Ukraine.
The difference in the yield spread between
the US and Japanese markets is 2.50 points less than in the Japanese market,
taking into account the 2018 OECD's real GDP forecast announced. The reason for
the bargain is due to the difference between S&P500 's PER of 19.5 and the
Nikkei average adopted stock price PER 14.8 and Japan-US interest rate
difference, GDP growth difference. This is because the difference in GDP growth
between Japan and the US in 2018 is 2.6% more than the OECD forecast (Japan
will downgrade or US will be revised upward) against the current Nikkei average
price, or it can be interpreted that the Japanese-U.S. Market will be in
equilibrium, because the expected PER of the Nikkei average hires will be
around 23.8 (the results for the current term will be revised downwards or the
Nikkei average will be around 36220 yen) By the way, the Japanese market is
cheap about 13670 yen.
[Conditions for Nikkei average rise]
In the future, the following assumptions
are necessary for the Nikkei average to rise further.
① Rising US market
② UP of expected profit increase rate for
the current term more than before
③ Expansion of the interest rate
differential between Japan and the US and further depreciation of the yen
④ Upward revision of Japan's 2018 GDP
estimate (now + 0.98%) by OECD
⑤ Foreign investors over-buying
Looking at recent movements
① Last week's NYDow weekly foot was negative.
The daily bar is on the 200 day line, and it is on the cloud of the ichimoku table.
Nasdaq weekly foot was negative. NASDAQ bar is on the 200-day line and on the
cloud of the ichimoku table. This week we will be paying attention to Housing
related indicators, Quarterly financial results announcement , The Chicago
Purchasing Department Association economic index in November, the ISM
manufacturing business condition index in November. I would like to pay
attention to whether NYDow is able to maintain above the 25 day moving average
line.
② The expected profit increase for the
Nikkei 225 hires will be +8.8% with the announcement of the 2nd quarter
financial results, which is 0.2 points worse than three months ago. In
addition, the growth rate forecast for this term is + 11.8%, 6.0 points better
than 3 months ago.
③ Long-term interest rates in the country
declined and the interest rate differential between Japan and the US expanded
from 2.32% to 2.32%, and the exchange rate changed from 112 yen to 111 yen,
which was a strong yen movement. This week is estimated to be the 112 yen level
to the 110 yen level.
④ The OECD's real GDP growth rate in 2018
in Japan and the US is expected to be + 1.0% in Japan and + 2.4% in the US, so the
Japanese market is worse by 1.4 points on this aspect.
⑤ 3rd week of November is a over selling. there
is a high possibility that the 4th week of November is a over buying, and this
week we are forecasting to over buying.
①,② was a bullish
factor but ③ was a bearish factor. It seems that ①,②,③,⑤ will be affected this week.
[Technical viewpoint]
From the technical point of view of the
Japanese market, the 200-day divergence rate difference with NASDAQ is 2.8
points in mid- to long-term (about 630 yen when it is calculated by Nikkei
average), which is expensive. The price range has shrunk compared to last week.
The Nikkei average in the cloud of the
ichimoku table. The total divergence rate was +22.6%, and which expanded positive
range. The 200 day moving average line deviation rate was +12.7%, and which expanded
positive range. Since 3 elements are positive, the "green light" is
on for the medium term trend. The Nikkei average is above the 25 day moving
average line and the 9 day moving average line,
"green light " is on for short-term trends.
In the US market NY Dow exceeds the 200 day
line , the 25 day line and the 9 day line. It is on the cloud of the ichimoku
table. NASDAQ exceeds the 200 day average line and the 25 day average line, the
9 day average line. It is on the cloud of the ichimoku table. In the short term
"green light" is on and in the medium term "green light" is
on.
[Outlook for this week]
Looking at the US market fundamentally,
concerns such as the US economic slowdown, sluggish crude oil prices, falling
high-yield bond market, financial market turmoil due to UK's withdrawal from
the EU, global long-term interest rate trends declined, etc. Concern is diminished.
However, there are fears concerning the global economic slowdown due to the US
interest rate hikes, uncertainty of US politics, Situation of North Korea, the
creditworthiness of the EU regional banks, the economic slowdown of emerging
economies such as China, the sluggish growth of US corporate earnings,
geopolitical risks of the Middle East and Ukraine as risk factors It exists.
China's real estate prices are flat in big
cities, but the problem of bad loans in China such as excessive facilities has
not been resolved. If you rush up the process, it will lead to a short-term
market decline, and there is a concern that prolonged recession will prolong
the recession.
Also, the most recent LIBOR interest rate
has been updated for the past five years high and conscious of the possibility
of financial unrest.
On the other hand, as favorable material,
the possibility of moderate rate hike in the US, policy expectation of New
President Trump, setting of 2% inflation target by the BOJ, introduction of
negative interest rate and purchase of 80 trillion government bond · 6 trillion
yen ETF, In addition to monetary easing measures, clarification of the duration
of long-term interest rate manipulation and monetary relaxation. Negative
interest rates and purchase of government bonds are maintained for policy interest
rates by the ECB. However, the government bond purchase facility has been
gradually reduced from April 2017. EU is
also headed towards financial normality.
Looking at the technical aspect, the US
market is upward trend in the medium-term, and upward trend in the short term.
The Japanese market is upward trend in the medium-term, and upward in the short
term.
Analyzing the exchange market last week, the
long-term interest rate in the US declined and the long-term interest rate gap
between the US and Japan retained, and the exchange rate was a move toward a stronger
yen in the week. From now on, we need to pay attention to technical indicators,
US market trends, foreign exchange movements and foreign investor's trends.
Last week's Nikkei average was in the
expected range. The upper price was lower than the assumed line by about 420
yen, and the lower price was about 110 yen uper than the assumed line This
week's Nikkei average is expected to move between the upper price on Bollinger
band +2σ (currently around 23090 yen) and the lower price on 25th average line (currently
around 22240 yen ).
