Philippines Stock Exchange – Break Below Important Support

The Philippines Stock Exchange Index (PSEI) broke below a short-term rising trendline and the 05/26/23 bottom at 6,496.47.  This low is also close to a Fibonacci .618 retracement of the 03/16/23 to 05/08/23 rally. 

The daily PSEI chart courtesy of Trading View updates the action.

The break of support implies a short – term move down to the 03/16/23 bottom in the 6,330 area. Momentum evidence supports this theory.  Daily MACD is just below the “zero” line and daily RSI is only at 40% – the oversold zone begins at 30%.  

There’s a good chance that in the next several weeks the PSEI could reach at least the October 2022 bottom.

Today 05/31/23, after the main stock trading session, The U.S. House of Representatives  passed the debt ceiling increase.  The next blog on 06/01/23 will examine the U.S. stock market reaction to this important legislative action.
