What is the expectation for the AEX?"
As long as the AEX does not close above 885, the most likely scenario is that the AEX will begin another decline to 848. As such, this also remains the price target of the ongoing short position taken at 885. The stoploss also remains 885.
The expected longer-term course of the AEX depends on the strength of this recovery. A close above 885 signals in the algorithm that the AEX may continue to rise above 900 points.
For the long term, the view for the AEX remains at neutral.
