Secular upturn
Article Abstract:
Stock prices in the US are in a secular upturn which strengthens the bull market and softens the impact of a bear market, according to HSBC James Capel. Japanese stocks should rise above 23,000 measured by the Nikkei, from 19,500, but are not likely to rise above 25,000. UK stocks are narrowly focused on the top 15, and a bear trend is evident if the key stocks are removed. A benign bear market could last from 12 months to 14 months following an interest rate rise.

Head and shoulders above the rest
Article Abstract:
A head and shoulders pattern can be seen in some charts of share prices. Chartists argue that sell signals can be detected using this chart, since they indicate that share prices are to fall. Critics argue that these patterns are not reliable but evidence points to their usefulness. They seldom occur, but when they do occur a company's share price tends to follow a pattern. This technique is less useful for analysing the market as a whole.
