Besides, "Asyl-Invest" JCS analysts expect the following events on the
worldwide markets:
- Major U.S. stock indexes rose for the first few hours after the opening
session Monday at the background of the news of the elimination of the
leader of an international terrorist organization al-Qaeda Osama bin Laden
by U.S. troops. This news has had a psychological impact on markets. The
Dow Jones Industrial Index and the broad market S & P 500 during trading
were close to levels of three-year highs and high-tech Nasdaq Composite
index went on maximum levels for decade. Soon, however, enthusiasm for
the death of a "terrorist number one" decreased, and the indices moved into
negative territory, ending the trades on it.. The best dynamics in the auction
was led by the pharmaceutical sector (0.92%) on the background of the news
that the pharmaceutical company Teva Pharmaceuticals (TEVA) has agreed
to buy the pharmaceutical company Cephalon (CEPH). Published in the U.S.
corporate reporting and economic statistics didn't' affect the market much.
- Economic statistics includes the data on business activity index in ISM
industrial sector for April. The index decreased from 61.2 to 60.4 during
April.The economists expected 59.5 pts decrease. Despite of April decrease,
the index is still high. During past 4 months it overcomes the 60 pts level.
- U.S. exchanges today ruled to cancel a number of transactions carried out
after the close of trading, prices of which rose more than 30%. Shares of the
transaction which will be repealed, are shares of the issuers associated with
the companies Aetna (AET), Humana (HUM), Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY),
Pfizer (PFE), Eli Lilly (LLY), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ).
- By today, the U.S. has published financial results of 243 companies, but in
the opinion of ASYL INVEST analysts, today's publication would not cause
great interest for the markets. Economic statistics is limited by publish of
industrial orders data for March
- The bidding on West European floors on Monday ended up near levels of
previous closing. The LSE didn't host any bidding. The news about the
elimination of Osama bin Laden affected the trade positively.
- The bidding in West Europe may be non-confident today. The economic
statistics includes the data on producers' price index for March in eurozone,
the data on British PMI index for April.
- Main Asian indexes demonstrate the moderately positive dynamics, because
the concern on toughening of Chinese monetary police didn't come true.
- The oil prices decrease today. June WTI oil futures decrease 0.45%, Brent
oil futures - 0.35%. Gold prices rise insignificantly. Dollar continues to
strengthen in accordance with Euro.
