June 7th - As the conflict with Iran triggers global inflationary pressures, the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to raise interest rates by 25 basis points next week, becoming the first major central bank among the G7 to tighten monetary policy. Markets anticipate at least one more rate hike this year. In contrast, the Bank of Canada is likely to keep its rates unchanged, while the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England are expected to remain on hold this month, observing the impact of the Iranian conflict. ECB officials aim to ensure that inflation in the Eurozone does not become deeply entrenched, but a rate hike would come at the cost of further dragging down an already weak economy. ECB President Christine Lagarde is likely to provide a clearer signal on the next steps at the press conference following the decision. Meanwhile, the ECB will also release its quarterly economic forecasts, assessing different scenarios of the energy shocks impact on the regional economy.On June 7th, Willie Walsh, Director General of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), stated that rising jet fuel prices are expected to lead to more airline bankruptcies and industry consolidation.

In the E-mini contract, the S&P 500 has gained a little bit of stability during the Tuesday trading session as we get closer to a critical support level.

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

In the early stages of the E-mini contract, the S&P 500 has moved in a rather narrow range. Having said that, this week is the Jackson Hole Symposium, which is practically guaranteed to make a lot of noise. In this case, I believe the trading public will be paying great heed to central bankers' pronouncements, which, of course, may sometimes result in complete pandemonium.


In this case, I believe we could have a brief rebound followed by increased selling pressure. The 200-Day EMA is located around 4185, and there is considerable resistance at the 4300 level above. It's also important to pay attention to the 50-Day EMA, which is at 4082 and climbing below; it may provide dynamic support.


I do believe that it is extremely possible that traders will look to the 50-Day EMA to salvage the market upward, regardless of whether or not this turns out to be the case. If we break it down below that, the market is probably just trying to get to the 4000 level. Anything below the 4000 mark indicates that we have once again altered our mentality and that more downside is yet to come.


One thing you can certainly bet on, in my opinion, is a lot of noisy volatility, mostly as a result of the central bankers' ranting in Wyoming. They will almost certainly underline their resolve to battle inflation, which means that monetary policies will continue to tighten throughout the globe.
