Get the latest news about EuropeIt was 2016th "big short" : Especially US-Invstors betting billions of US-Dollar against Italy. They thought it might be simple: Matteo Renzi would be forced to resign on Dezember 5th 2016 (what happened). Than Italian Banks are going to fail (what not happend) and finaly Italy will leave the Euro and the European Union (Ixit after Brexit). And now guess what... ... Italy´s Five Star Movement founder Beppo Grillo today annouced nothing else than a U-Turn: Quote: Italy's maverick 5-Star Movement should cut ties with the anti-European Union U.K. Independence Party (UKIP) and consider hooking up with the Liberals in the European Parliament, 5-Star founder Beppe Grillo said on Sunday. If the switch in allegiance goes ahead, it would see 5-Star enter mainstream European politics and move away from the anti-system fringes, a shift that might reassure other EU capitals that have grown uneasy about its rising popularity. Writing on his blog, Grillo said his party was in talks with the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) and asked 5-Star members to back the initiative in an online ballot. ALDE is headed by former Belgian prime minister Guy Verhofstadt. He is a keen European federalist and his strong, pro-EU views would seem at odds with the euroskeptic 5-Star. Source: www.cnbc.com

Market CapitulationWhat is "Market Capitulation I"? By definition, capitulation means to surrender or give up. In financial circles, this term is used to indicate the point in time when investors have decided to give up on trying to recapture lost gains as a result of falling stock prices. Suppose a stock you own has dropped by 10%. There are two options that can be taken: you can wait it out and hope the stock begins to appreciate, or you can realize the loss by selling the stock. If the majority of investors decides to wait it out, then stock price will likely remain relatively stable. The significance of capitulation lies in its implications. Many market professionals consider it to be a sign of a bottom in prices and consequently a good time to buy stocks.

Italian Stock Market Update 12-18-16Last week the Italian stock market (MIB) pushed above the .382 retracement of the bear move from July 2015 to June 2016 and has now reached the next resistance area of the double top in the low 19,000 area. The daily RSI has a bearish divergence in the overbought zone that is confirmed by a bearish divergence on the MACD histogram. There is a high probability the MIB has either made a top or is very close to one. If in the short term MIB can continue to move up, it probably won't go much above 19216 - the March 2016 top. The MIB has been moving up with other international stock markets, many of which are also near tipping points - see my posts on the SPX and other US stock indexes. If the MIB declines it will probably retrace at a minimum to the June 2016 bottom. Mark

Italian Stock Market at Important ResistanceThis weekend Italy's 3rd largest bank, Banca Monte Dei Paschi is expected to be bailed out. The Italian MIB has rallied to the .382 retracement level of the 2015 - 2016 bear market. The rally from the low of the year is very choppy with a lot of overlap - the signature of a counter trend correction. The 2015 - 2016 decline counts as a extended five wave Elliott pattern. If a top is near, the subsequent decline could at a minimum go back to the low of the year. A larger decline could be as big as the 2015 -2016 bear market. If MIB turns down soon it could cause other European stock indices to decline and could also be bearish for US stocks. Mark

Italian constitutional referendum & the widely expected crash A constitutional referendum will be held in Italy on Sunday 4 December 2016. Voters will be asked whether they approve of amending the Italian Constitution to reform the appointment and powers of the Parliament of Italy, as well as the partition of powers of State, Regions, and administrative entities. Source: en.wikipedia.org All known polls saying that Matteo Renzi is going to loose this referendum. As mentioned before in the following trading ideas the outcome of the Referendum is absolutely clear: If the referendum falis Mr. Renzi says he will step down. Investors, and many European governments, fear a NO vote will turn Italy into the "third domino" in a toppling international order, after Brexit and the election of Donald Trump. Everyone in Italy believes that NO is how Italians should vote. Thisfore everything is clear and what "suprise" can be left for sunday? Hedgefonds are betting against Italiy, obviously, heavily. In case you are one of those investors and you are absolutely sure about this upcomming crash by monday night what is the reason that you are closing some short trades today? You dont believe that this happened today? Than watch closely the chart above and think what this chart means.

The Next Brexit is to come: Investors selling ItalyThis is the reason why: Investors this time want to make everything better than before. Brexit and the US-Election caused two panic sell offs before. So what can you do better than selling Europe before on next sunday the next "Brexit" will occur and will cause the next panic sell offon next Monday? But is this how stockmarkets are working? All Investors know before that a crash is comming on next monday and all Investors are able to go short and all are making profit on next monday? Do not make any mistakes: The polls are clear. Matteo Renzi will loose the upcomming Referendum by sunday December 4th, will resign probably same day followed by 8 Italien Banks going directely bankrupt next day followed by leaving Euro und the European Union. So it´s written in the news. The perfekt Storm. What i am wondering about ist how this might work in the opinion of all this investors wich are shorting the market or wich are afraid to buy any uncertainty or wich are not willing to climb a wall of worries. Everyone knows all facts now. What will be "new" on sunday if everything happens what you can read in any newspaper all arround the world? I am neutral for this market but i will keep an close eye on the FTSE/mib if ever the widely expected sell off on monday dec. 5th 2016 or any following day might not occur. The black line in the chart showes the expeted day for the next "Brexit" Crash on Monday Dezember 5th. As i said before: Do not make any mistake: Matteo Renzi is far behind to win this voting - but everyone know this.

FTSE/Mib: Watch this Index closely!The "Renzi" Referendum in Italy is comming soon - but look how the Italian Stockmarket "runs": There are no lower lows until today. Matteo Renzi ist going to loose this upcomming Referundum next Sunday (Dec. 4th 2016). The predictions are all same: Italian banks will follow up with bancruptcy, Italia will first leave the Euro and the European Union later. But - can you read this in this chart? In the month bevor you see mutch more downside risk and downside momentum than today, only few days before the voting. Maybe you also be aware that hedgefunds are betting against Italian Bonds and Stocks. Thisfore you might expect mutch more downside volatility but it isn´t there. . My reading for this market is more bullish than bearish. I am looking today for a "neutral" bias but will change it anytime to "bullish" if there is no downnside momentum before or after the voting next sunday.
