May 27th - British household energy bills are set to see their biggest increase since 2023 due to the war with Iran pushing up wholesale gas and electricity prices, further exacerbating inflationary pressures already weighing on the UK economy. The UK energy regulator, Ofgem, announced on Wednesday that the energy price cap will be raised by 13% to £1862 from July 1st. This price cap is updated quarterly, and the previous pricing used market data prior to the escalation of the Middle East conflict; therefore, this adjustment is the first to fully reflect the impact of the recent turmoil in the Middle East. Since the start of the conflict, UK near-month gas futures prices have risen by over 40%, while electricity contract prices have risen by nearly a third over the same period. Energy consultancy Cornwall Insight predicts that UK energy bills will rise again in October, warning that even if the conflict ends quickly, prices will struggle to return to April levels due to damaged infrastructure and prolonged energy supply disruptions.Both WTI and Brent crude oil prices fell by more than 2.00% intraday, currently trading at $94.27 per barrel and $94.57 per barrel, respectively.On May 27th, the National Energy Administration officially released a list of 51 high-value "AI+" energy scenarios. These 51 scenarios include intelligent emergency response to severe convective disasters along important power transmission lines, intelligent diagnosis and smart operation of new power distribution networks, intelligent operation optimization of large-scale vehicle-grid interaction, and intelligent operation of multi-energy complementary clean energy bases. By sector, these 51 high-value scenarios cover eight major areas, including "AI+" power grid, "AI+" new energy, "AI+" hydropower, and "AI+" thermal power.Euro Stoxx 50 futures rose 0.35%, German DAX 30 futures rose 0.31%, French CAC 40 futures rose 0.47%, and UK FTSE 100 futures fell 0.11%.Ofgem (UKs Office for the Gas and Electricity Markets) says that from July onwards, electricity price increases will be lower than gas price increases – a situation different from that during the energy crisis.

Tech Stocks Increase Leading tech companies recovered after the most recent pullback, and the S&P 500 increased its upward momentum and headed near the 3950 mark.


Treasury rates decreased, and the U.S. currency retreated from annual highs, which was another encouraging factor for IT stocks. It should be highlighted that certain tech stocks now lack favorable momentum, including Apple, Meta, and NVIDIA.


Meanwhile, when WTI oil breached the crucial support level and advanced towards $83, energy equities were among the worst performers. Major energy companies' shares are down by roughly 2% in today's trade, including Schlumberger, Chervon, and Exxon Mobil.


We've previously spoken about how the market required a recovery in tech equities to go higher. The market behavior today suggests that, if leading tech stocks continue to have solid support, the S&P 500 may acquire considerable upward momentum even while the prior leader (energy stocks) is under pressure. Accordingly, the dynamics of the top tech companies, which continue to be the primary drivers of the S&P 500, will determine whether the present recovery continues.

S&P 500 Tests Resistance At 3950

The S&P 500 broke through the barrier of 3915 and found support close to 3885. The S&P 500 is now attempting to stabilize above the resistance of 3950.


The S&P 500 will proceed toward the next resistance level, which is at 3980, if this effort is successful. A rise over this point will allow for the testing of the 4000 level resistance. The S&P 500 will go toward the 4015 barrier level if it rises over 4000.


The prior resistance level at 3915 will act as the S&P 500's first support level on the support side. The S&P 500 will go toward the next support at the recent lows at 3885 if it drops below this level. The S&P 500 will be pushed into the 3830 support level if this level is successfully tested.
