Outlook for the Nikkei average this week [04-Jun-2017]

[Present state recognition of fundamental]

In the US market last week, market psychology improved, and the highest ever recorded with buying dominance. In the medium to long term, there are fears of a slowdown in the global economy due to the lack of creditworthiness of European banks and concerns about credit contraction, the economic slowdown of emerging economies such as China, the rate hike of the Federal Reserve and the stagnation of crude oil prices, and 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 1.64 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 19.0 and the Nikkei average adopted stock price PER 14.4,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 1.6% more than the OECD forecast (Japan is downgraded downwards or the US is upwardly modified) 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 18.8(the results for the current term will be revised downwards or the Nikkei average will be around 26420 yen) By the way, the Japanese market is cheap about 6240 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 + 0.83%) by OECD

⑤ Foreign investors over-buying

Looking at recent movements

① Last week's NYDow weekly foot was positive. The daily bar is on the 200 day line, and it is on the cloud of the ichimoku table. Nasdaq weekly foot was positive. NASDAQ bar is on the 200-day line and the cloud of the ichimoku table. This week we will be paying attention to The ISM Non Manufacturing Industry Situation Index in May, British General Election, ECB Regular Board of Governors. I would like to pay attention to whether NYDow can keep above the clouds of ichimoku table.

② The expected profit increase for the Nikkei225 hires will be 9.0% with the announcement of the financial results along with the announcement of the financial results for the Jan-Mar period, and it improved by 0.9 points compared to 3 months ago. In addition, The growth rate for the current business forecast is +8.3%, and it improved by 0.3 points compared to 3 months ago.

③ Long-term interest rates in the US has risen, the interest rate differential between Japan and the US expanded from 2.22 to 2.12%, and the exchange rate moved from the 111 yen level to 110 yen level. This week is estimated to be 109 yen range from 111 yen range.

④ The OECD's real GDP growth rate in 2018 in Japan and the US is expected to be + 0.8% in Japan and + 3.0% in the US, so the Japanese market is worse by 2.2 points on this aspect.

⑤4th week of May is a over buying. there is a high possibility that the 5th week of May  is a over buying, and this week we are forecasting to over buying.

①,⑤ was bullish factor. It seems that ①,②,③,⑤ will be affected this week.

[Technical viewpoint]

From the technical viewpoint of the Japanese market, the 200-day divergence rate difference with NASDAQ is 2.8 points less expensive in the mid to long term (about 560 yen when calculating the Nikkei average) and it is cheap. The ratio shrunk by 1.0 point last week.

The Nikkei average on the cloud of the ichimoku table. The total deviation rate was +16.7%, and the positive range was expanded compared to last week. The 200-day moving average line deviation rate was + 9.7%, and the positive range was expanded compared to last week. Since the 3 elements are positive, the "green light" is on for the medium term trend. The Nikkei average is on the 25 day line and on the 9 day line,  "green light " is on for short-term trends.

In the US market NY Dow is on the 200 day line and on the 25 day and on the 9 day line . It is on the cloud of the ichimoku table. NASDAQ is on the 200 day and on the 25 day and on the 9 day line. It is on the cloud of the ichimoku table. In the short term " green " 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, 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 buy-out frame has been reduced from EUR 80 billion to EUR 60 billion in April 2017.

Looking at the technical aspect, the US market is rising trend in the medium-term, and rising trend in the short term. The Japanese market is rising trend in the medium-term, and rising trend in the short term.

Analyzing the exchange market last week, Long-term interest rates in the US declined and the long-term interest rate gap between the US and Japan shrank, so the exchange rate became a strong yen movement 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 went above the assumed range. The upper price was upper than the assumed line by about 310 yen, and Lower price roughly matched the assumed line. This week's Nikkei average is expected to move between upper price is Bollinger band +2σ + 200yen (the current price is around 20370 yen) and the lower price is 25 day average line (the current price is around 19690 yen ).
