Nasdaq 100 - Has the Nasdaq 100 index formed double bottom?

Mis à jour
Last week, the U.S. Federal Reserve increased interest rates by 25 basis points. Initially, we thought this would put additional pressure on the U.S. economy; actually, we thought this would potentially lead to more weakness in the market. However, the Nasdaq 100 index showed strength instead of a weakness and broke above 14 391 USD resistance level. A sharp drop simultaneously followed this in the volatility index. Such an occurrence substantially improved the recent bearish picture that the Nasdaq 100 index conveyed. Indeed, several technical indicators turned neutral or even bullish at the same time. In addition to that, the hawkish stance of the FED caused market participants to price in future rate cuts. Therefore, in our opinion, it is possible that the Nasdaq 100 index formed a double bottom; actually, we think it is likely for the U.S. stock market to continue a little bit higher from the current level (or go sideways due to the trend turning neutral from bearish). However, we are very cautious, and we will monitor the situation very closely in the following days.
