In terms of statistics, the Sentix index of investor confidence in the Euro Zone contracted sharply, below -13, more than the consensus had predicted. Patrick Hussy, CEFA, Managing Director Sentix, provided the following keys to understanding: “There is no doubt that the eurozone economy has held up better in the winter months than many feared in the fall.

KEY GRAPHIC ELEMENTS
Beware of the probable commitment of the three-color flagship index in a shoulder, head and shoulders pattern above a graphic base materialized by the bullish gap of March 30, below 7,235 points. We will watch like the milk on the fire, the continuation if necessary of this route to identify work scenarios. In the immediate future, no clear directional asserts itself.
FORECAST
In view of the key graphic factors that we have mentioned, our opinion is negative on the CAC 40 index in the short term.
This bearish scenario is valid as long as the CAC 40 index is trading below the resistance at 7585.00 points.
