Xi Jinping put forward four points on advancing China-Laos relations and the building of a community with a shared future for both countries to a higher standard, higher quality, and higher level: First, adhere to the socialist direction. Second, consolidate the foundation of mutually beneficial cooperation. China is willing to strengthen strategic alignment with Laos and expand areas of cooperation. We should leverage the advantages of the China-Laos railway as a major transportation corridor, promote development along the route and implement "one-stop customs and inspection," and upgrade cooperation along the China-Laos Economic Corridor. We should accelerate the connection of the China-Laos-Thailand railway to achieve greater connectivity within the region as soon as possible. We should strengthen cooperation in traditional areas such as agriculture and electricity, and expand cooperation in emerging areas such as artificial intelligence and the digital economy. China is willing to continue to provide assistance to Laos to the best of its ability. Third, consolidate the traditional friendship between the two peoples. Fourth, strengthen coordination of foreign policies. After the talks, the two sides jointly witnessed the signing of cooperation documents in the fields of inter-party relations, peoples livelihood, finance, customs, trade and economic cooperation, youth exchanges, and media.

S&P 500 Choppy Ahead of the FOMC Press Conference

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

The S&P 500 first attempted to advance during Wednesday's futures market trading session, and it seems that the 4200 level above will continue to act as a bit of barrier. If we can break through the 4200 mark, we'll most likely target the 4300 level. 


The 4300 level is a big, round number with psychological significance. That is a major barrier, and breaching over it would impact the market's general attitude, as it would continue to confirm the enormous hammer that we established throughout the trading session on Monday.


If we break below the bottom of the hammer from Monday's session, we'll most likely target the 4000 handle. Because of the headline noise, the 4000 level underneath it will get a lot of attention, but I believe we will begin to accelerate to the downside at that point. Whatever the case may be, I believe a lot of it boils down to what the Federal Reserve says, and maybe more significantly, how the market interprets it.


Because we will have just completed what is expected to be the largest event for the market this month, the market is likely to experience a strong and impulsive move at this moment. Regardless, there are clearly many fears out there, and unless Jerome Powell can soothe the market jitters, things might become nasty very quickly.
