News to keep you updated
- There is news for Apple lovers: the company promised to release an update to prevent overheating of its iPhone 15 devices, and there are reports that Apple is prepared to launch its search engine.
- The Bank of Japan introduced plans for additional bond buying amid surging yields at the highest level in a decade. Japanese sovereign yields have risen as speculation grows the central bank will end its negative interest rate sooner rather than later.
- S&P500 (US500) closed September with a 5% decline, marking the second negative month for the American stock market. The US stock market was declining amid the risks of the government shutdown. However, the risk passed after the US Congress finalized the last-minute funding deal on Saturday afternoon.
- A US recession is still knocking on the doors of the markets with the significant auto strike, the resumption of student-loan repayments, and avoided shutdown, which may still affect the GDP growth in the 4th quarter.
- The oil prices strengthened on Monday, fueled by rapidly growing demand that will run ahead of supply. XBRUSD has been going up since the start of the day, rising above $92.
XBRUSD technical analysis
The pair has formed a double top on the daily chart, with the resistance at the peaks at 95.00 and the support at the neckline at 91.00. The breakout of the support might be triggered by the news this week; in case of a breakout, selling from 91.00 with a target of 87.90 is preferable. If the pair reverses to the upside and breaks 95, the next resistance is at 97.80.
Have a successful trading week!
