On September 9th, local time, the U.S. Southern Command announced that on the 8th, the Joint Task Force for the Western Hemisphere (JTF-WHEM) intercepted a floating refueling station in the eastern Pacific Ocean that day, which was supporting illegal drug trafficking activities at sea. Intelligence confirmed that the vessel was linked to the Ecuadorian drug trafficking terrorist organization "Los Choneros". The personnel taken from the ship have been handed over to Ecuadorian authorities. After inspecting the vessel and disembarking the crew, the U.S. military sank the ship.Indonesian Automobile Manufacturers Association: Car sales in Indonesia increased by 32.4% year-on-year in August.On September 9th, Colombian President Eduardo de la Espley met with visiting US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in the northern coastal city of Barranquilla on the 8th. Following the meeting, de la Espley stated that Colombia and the US would strengthen cooperation in areas such as regional security, drug control, border affairs, and investment and development. Colombian Senator Iván Cepeda issued a statement via social media opposing Rubios visit and questioning whether certain arrangements reached between the de la Espley government and the US in security and military fields infringed upon Colombian national sovereignty. Cepeda also criticized the US-led drug control policy, arguing that the so-called "war on drugs," which has lasted nearly 50 years, has failed to fundamentally solve the drug problem.Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory message to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on the 78th anniversary of the founding of the DPRK.On September 9th, according to Axios, US President Trump announced that the US will ban imports of Canadian alcohol, certain dairy products, and large motorcycles; this move marks a sharp escalation in the trade war, primarily driven by tariffs. These import bans will take effect on September 29th; unlike simply raising tariffs and causing price increases, the bans effectively cut off the access of the relevant Canadian goods to the US market. Trump is implementing these bans under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930; this section authorizes the president to prohibit imports of goods from countries that maintain or exacerbate discriminatory practices against US commerce. The White House also announced on Tuesday that it will extend the existing 50% tariff measures to dozens of additional Canadian products—including certain steel and aluminum products, furniture, and paper—effective September 15th.

Shortly after the cash market closed on Wednesday, June E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index futures were trading higher. Following the publication of minutes from the Federal Reserve's most recent monetary policy meeting, the market is up, although off its highs.


The minutes revealed that officials agreed that the US economy was quite robust as they struggled to control inflation without causing a recession.


June E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index futures were trading at 11922.50 at 20:17 GMT, up 151.50 or 1.29 percent. The Invesco QQQ Trust ETF closed at $291.33, up $4.09 or 1.42 percent from its previous close.


The minutes from the Federal Reserve's meeting on May 3-4 revealed that policymakers recognized the need to increase rates fast, maybe more than the market has priced in, to combat recent inflationary pressures.


The index increased following the minutes since there were no surprises.

Technical Analysis of the Daily Swing Chart

According to the daily swing chart, the major trend is down. The return of the decline will be signaled by a trade through 11491.25. The major trend will turn to up if the price breaks through 12594.00.


The small downward trend continues. The minor trend will be changed to up with a transaction through 12096.75. This will also alter the market's momentum upward.


A long-term retracement zone between 11671.25 to 10468.25 is the primary support on the downside.


The first barrier on the upside is a small pivot at 12042.75. After it, at 12042.75, there is a second minor pivot.

Short-Term Prospects

The early Thursday direction of the June E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index will most likely be determined by trader response to 11671.25.

Positive Outlook

The presence of buyers will be shown by a prolonged advance over 11671.25. The minor peak at 12096.75 is the initial upside objective, followed by 12042.75.


Taking out 12096.75 might provide the necessary upward impetus to attack the 50% level at 12523.25, then the major peak at 12594.00. If a trade is made through this level, the major trend will flip to up, signaling further upside potential.

Bearish Prospects

A prolonged move below 11671.25 indicates weakness. If the minor bottom at 11576.25 is broken, the minor bottom at 11491.25 should be tested quickly. This might be the starting point for a run to the major bottom at 10913.75 on November 2, 2020.
