The US market and the Nifty fell hard last week. Signals are mixed for the upcoming week. Transports are diverging and the Vix is suggesting complacency. The Yen is suggesting that global risk appetite is waning significantly. The markets are back at resistance and are likely to continue major breakdowns in 2016 as the recent rally has concluded. A big move is imminent.  The critical levels to watch are 2060 (up) and 2040 (down) on the S & P and 7650 (up) and 7450 (down) on the Nifty. A significant breach of the above levels could trigger the next big move in the above markets. You can check out last week’s report for a comparison.
