​​​FTSE 100 recovers from near one-month low

​The FTSE 100 slid to a near-one month low at 8,138 on Thursday before recovering as real estate and telecom shares outperformed. Auto Trader shares rose by 12.9% in the UK as the company reported FY revenue and profits above expectations.

​The 24 May low at 8,249 represents the first upside target, followed by the 28 May high at 8,345.

​DAX 40 revisits tentative uptrend line

​The DAX 40 is revisiting its April-to-May tentative uptrend line which so far underpins at 18,420 with Thursday’s low at 18,379. While this continues to be the case, the April high and mid-May low at 18,623 to 18,636 may be revisited.

​Failure at 18,379 would put the 18,238 late April high on the cards.

​Short-term downside pressure should remain in play while Tuesday’s high at 18,854 caps.

​S&P 500 remains short-term under pressure

​The S&P 500’s corrective move lower from last week’s record high at 5,343 has so far taken it to 5,220, below which lies the mid-May low at 5,194. If fallen through, the 8 May low at 5,164 may be reached next.

​Minor resistance can be spotted at the 23 May low at 5,257.
