What happened on the AEX in the past week?
After a couple of positive weeks, the AEX corrected last week. Monday, the index opened at 971 and reached the provisional weekly high of 976 the same day.
On Tuesday, the AEX corrected more than 2% to the weekly low of 955. This drop was caused by falling prices across a broad front, led by the major Tech funds. Wednesday, the upward strength was found again and the AEX recovered from the dip by a nice rise to 973.
What does this mean for sentiment on the AEX?
Overall sentiment on the AEX is underlying optimistic, but there is extra vigilance lurking in the market.
What is the outlook for the AEX?
Last week's correction to the 955 is, in our algorithm's most likely scenario, the prelude to a tentative new top around the 995 level. Subsequently, the AEX will experience a larger correction that could bring the AEX back about 5 to 6% to the 951 - 939 zone.
Then, the rise will start towards the longer-term price target of at least 1,015. Below 880, the longer-term positive scenario expires and the AEX enters a neutral zone with an increased risk of further decline. As long as 880 holds, the positive scenario remains in place.
