Last Week Analysis - Nifty is down back to its 50 days EMA
Nifty is down in the last week and closed just above its 50 days EMA of 5257.57.
S&P was trading in narrow range of between 1397 and 1416 which is unusal and it shows that market is getting enough fear to cross this boundary. Since the next target would be a testing of all time high for S&P 500 which is also unsual with the current market weak fundamentals.
US will hold presidential elections on Nov 06, 2012
With respect to US long term treasury prices, TLT closed today at 127.72 which is a significant gain of 2.33% for this week compared to the last week close of 124.81.
