The US30 index advanced for a third straight day Friday, posting the biggest daily gain in three weeks

The 100-day moving average at 26,095 and the 55-day average at 26,149 are gradually converging and could crossover by the end of the month

CN50USD Daily Chart

The China50 index rebounded from two-week lows on Friday, buoyed by the positive sentiment on Wall Street

The 55-day moving average at 13,142 moved below the 100-day moving average at 13,146 for the first time since February 26. This is often interpreted as a medium-term bearish signal

The Chinese economy probably grew 6.2% y/y in the second quarter, according to the latest survey of economists, slower than Q1’s 6.4% expansion. An even lower number would increase pressure on the authorities to introduce larger stimulus measures for the economy to combat the weakening impact of the trade war with the US.
