Results
• International Business Machines Corp: The company recorded highest quarterly sales growth in more two years and beat Wall Street targets on Monday, boosted by its bets in the high-margin cloud computing business. Sales from its cloud computing services jumped 21% to $6.5 billion in the quarter. Total revenue rose nearly 1% to $17.73 billion in the quarter, beating analysts' average estimate of $17.35 billion. Net income fell to $955 million, or $1.06 per share, in the quarter ended March 31, from $1.18 billion, or $1.31 per share, a year earlier. Excluding items, the company earned $1.77 per share, beating market expectation of $1.63.
• Johnson & Johnson: The company, whose COVID-19 vaccine was put on pause last week to review reports of rare blood clots, reported $100 million in first-quarter sales of the shot and tightened its forecast for profits this year. The company now expects full-year adjusted profit of $9.42 to $9.57 per share from its prior forecast of $9.40 to $9.60 per share, after sales of its cancer drugs helped quarterly profit rise nearly 7%. Net earnings rose to $6.20 billion, or $2.32 per share, in the first quarter from $5.80 billion, or $2.17 per share, a year earlier. Separately, J&J is seeking to conduct a local clinical trial in India for its single-dose COVID-19 vaccine, which was paused in the United States last week on reports of rare blood clots.
• United Airlines Holdings Inc: The airline on Monday reported a bigger-than-expected $2.4 billion adjusted net loss for the first quarter, as fuel costs rose and the airline operated fewer flights amid continued weak demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Average fuel cost climbed nearly 30% to $1.74 per gallon in the quarter from the previous three months, while passenger traffic fell 52% compared to the same period in 2020. United Airlines said it expects fuel costs to rise by another 5% in the second quarter. United's adjusted net loss was about $2.40 billion for the first quarter, compared with analysts' average estimate for a loss of about $2.23 billion.

In Other News
• Alibaba Group Holding Ltd: China's market regulator is investigating a joint venture between e-commerce giant Alibaba and Minmetals Development, Minmetals said on Monday, amid a broad antitrust clampdown on internet firms.

• Alphabet Inc & Apple Inc: Senior executives with Alphabet's Google and Apple will testify on Wednesday about antitrust concerns related to their app stores along with executives of three companies which rely on those online stores, the leaders of the Senate Judiciary Committee's antitrust panel said.

• Boeing Co: Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE) announced an order for 15 Boeing 737 MAX 8 jets, signalling an end to the aircraft leasing giant's pricing standoff with planemakers. The order, worth $1.8 billion at list prices, though discounts are common, also signals a further show of confidence in the narrow-body jet that until recently was banned worldwide.

• BP PLC: Police in China's southern Guangdong province have detained several people, including two senior staff of a BP joint venture, in connection with an investigation into suspected illicit fuel trading, three people said. The detentions come after Guangdong, China's largest fuel consuming province, launched in February an investigation into suspected illicit trading between 2018 and 2020 of light cycle oil (LCO), a refinery by-product widely used to blend into diesel, said one of the sources.

• Caesars Entertainment Inc: Bookmaker William Hill said a British court had approved its takeover by U.S.-based casino operator Caesars, despite concerns raised by minority shareholder HBK about disclosures around the deal. HBK had opposed the scheme of arrangement for the 2.9-billion-pound deal, saying the terms of an existing joint venture between the two firms were not adequately disclosed by William Hill last year.

• Citigroup Inc: Banks including DBS Group, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, OCBC and Standard Chartered are set to bid for parts of Citigroup's consumer business in Asia, people with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

• Coinbase Global Inc: Options on Coinbase are set to start trading on Nasdaq options exchanges from Tuesday, less than a week after the cryptocurrency exchange went public, a representative for the exchange said.

• Exxon Mobil Corp: The company on Monday floated a proposal for a public-private carbon storage project that would collect planet-warming carbon dioxide emissions from U.S. petrochemical plants and bury them in deep under the Gulf of Mexico. The plan would require "$100 billion or more" from companies and government agencies to store 50 million metric tons of CO2 by 2030, with capacity potentially doubling by 2040, Joe Blommaert, president of Exxon's Low Carbon Solutions business, said in an interview.
• Kansas City Southern: Canadian National Railway plans to make a $30 billion bid for railroad operator Kansas City Southern, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter. Canadian National plans to offer $325 for each Kansas City Southern share, including $200 a share in cash and 1.059 Canadian National shares, the report said. The offer represents about a 20% premium to Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd's March offer of $275 a share for Kansas City Southern, WSJ said.
• PayPal Holdings Inc: Venmo, the peer-to-peer payment service owned by PayPal, said it has started allowing users to buy, hold and sell cryptocurrencies on its app, a step that could inspire more mainstream adoption of the asset class. Venmo users will be able to buy bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin and bitcoin cash for as little as $1 and publish transactions on the app's feed, the company said.

• Pfizer Inc: Thailand is seeking between five and 10 million doses of Pfizer and BioNTech's coronavirus vaccine, its prime minister said, as the government seeks to shore-up supplies while battling its fastest-spreading outbreak so far. "We're still waiting for quotations and terms and conditions," Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha told reporters, adding the targeted delivery period for the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccines was July to year-end.

• Rio Tinto Ltd: The global miner reported lower quarterly iron ore output as wet weather and labour shortages impacted its mine and port operations in Western Australia. Above average wet weather in the mines and workforce availability disrupted maintenance during the quarter, Rio said, while Tropical Cyclone Seroja impacted operations in April. Production for the quarter stood at 76.4 million tonnes, down 2% from the same period last year.

• Sinovac Biotech Ltd: Sinovac has supplied 260 million doses of its COVID-19 vaccine globally, with over 60% supplied to countries outside China, the company's chief executive Yin Weidong said. The company is producing more than 6 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine per day, Yin said at the annual Boao Forum for Asia, the region's answer to Davos.

• Tesla Inc: Texas police will serve search warrants on Tesla on Tuesday to secure data from a fatal vehicle crash, a senior officer told Reuters on Monday, after CEO Elon Musk said company checks showed the car's Autopilot driver assistance system was not engaged. Mark Herman, Harris County Constable Precinct 4, said evidence including witness statements clearly indicated there was nobody in the driver's seat of the Model S when it crashed into a tree, killing two people, on Saturday night.

• Vale SA: Iron ore production at Brazil's Vale fell sharply in the first quarter on a sequential basis, but rose compared to the same period a year ago, buoyed by the ramp-up of multiple key mine complexes. In a Monday securities filing, the company reported quarterly production of 68.045 million tonnes, up 14.2% from the first quarter last year, but down 19.5% from the fourth quarter.

De start van de week was niet conform gewoonte want alle indices laten verlies zien, op maandag krijgen we meestal een extra bonus erbij wat betreft de markten. Vanmorgen probeert alles zich wat te herpakken maar veel is het niet, wel blijven de toppen niet ver zodat het opnieuw testen ervan een kwestie blijft van 1 a 2 goeie dagen. Wel zien we de SOX index verder inleveren, ook de Dow Transport blijft zwak in vergelijking met de rest.

De markt momenteel:
Dat de markt even een stapje terug doet lijkt me meer dan normaal maar het wil natuurlijk niet zeggen dat het voorbij hoeft te zijn met de sterke fase ofwel de rally die al een tijdje loopt. Voor dat het zo ver is zullen de indices minder divergentie moeten vertonen en zal alles een goeie 2 tot 3% onder de toppen moeten staan. We merken wel dat enkele pioniers van de rally ofwel de sectoren die de rally voor een groot deel hebben aangewakkerd het nu veel minder goed doen. Dan kijk ik vooral naar de SOX index, de Dow Transport index en nu toch ook de Russel 2000 index (small-caps) die niet echt meer de power van eerder laten zien.

Gisteren kwamen er wel wat cijfers die goed werden ontvangen, vooral IBM deed het nabeurs goed want het aandeel won nabeurs 3%.

Olieprijs:
De olieprijs sluit wat hoger en stijgt ook vanmorgen weer wat, een vat Brent olie kost nu 67,75 dollar. De olie zit weer in een sterke fase want ook vorige week behaalde de olie al meer dan 6%. Aan de andere kant herinneren we ons ook nog 20 april 2020 uiteraard, het was de dag dat de olie negatief ging en zelfs een niveau haalde van -37,63 dollar. Zie hieronder de afbeelding. Om u nog maar eens duidelijk te maken met welke markt we momenteel te maken hebben, het onmogelijke wordt vaak mogelijk. Ook nu zien we bepaalde dingen die je haast voor onmogelijk zag amper een jaar of 2-3 geleden.

Opvallende divergenties:
Aan de andere kant is het ook zo dat we op Wall Street en ook tussen de verschillende regio's enorme divergenties zien en dat nu toch al een lange tijd na elkaar. Hieronder ziet u via een grafiek dat het niet vaak voorkomt maar als het voorkomt (vanaf begin jaren '70) er telkens wel een grote correctie op volgde. De situatie wordt met de dag gevaarlijker als u het mij vraagt. We zien bij de opeenvolgende divergenties die er nu zijn niveaus worden bereikt die er ook waren in 2000-2001, u weet wel ... dat was net voordat de Nasdaq met 85% omlaag moest.

Het gaat om de divergentie tussen de Dow Jones en de Nasdaq ofwel tussen de traditionele en de nieuwe economie.

Resultaat dit jaar verloopt naar wens maar rustig:
De eerste 3 maanden dit jaar werden positief afgerond en met december erbij komen we nu uit op 4 maanden na elkaar dat er winst werd behaald via de signalen. Dat moest voorzichtig gebeuren want ik hou in het achterhoofd rekening met het scenario wat ik net aangaf, over een aanstaande grote correctie over de gehele markt. Niettemin blijf ik rustig verder opbouwen wat betreft de posities.

Deze manier van werken wil ik hoe dan ook proberen aan te houden, het handelen onder de huidige omstandigheden krijg ik steeds beter onder controle en ik probeer met kleine posities zo als goed mogelijk te werken voor de leden. Onderaan deze update ziet u nog een overzicht met hoe de maand maart werd afgerond en hoe we er dit jaar voor staan wat betreft het resultaat via de signalen die we naar onze leden versturen.

Technische conditie Wall Street:
Wat betreft Wall Street wat terugval over de gehele lijn, wel blijven de toppen niet ver weg uiteraard. Opvallend is dat enkele belangrijke indices het nu laten afweten en dat is opvallend omdat ze eerder de voorlopers van de rally waren. Zoals ik al aangaf zijn dat de SOX (semi-conductor index), de Dow Transport index en de Russel 2000 (Small-Caps).

De andere en grotere indices op Wall Street blijven dus dicht bij hun toppen hangen en er valt daarover nog niet zoveel te zeggen. Technisch blijft alles dus op recordjacht zodat de korte, mid-lange en lange termijn trend nog altijd positief blijft. Aan de andere kant staan de indicatoren zeer hoog. We merken dat er weinig kopers overblijven maar er zijn dus ook nog te weinig verkopers te vinden momenteel.

Wel blijven vooral letten op de gemiddelde waardering, bij de S&P 500 zitten we nu al op 42.39 keer de winst (gemiddeld).

Technische conditie AEX en DAX:

AEX index:
Bij de AEX zien we maandag een terugval van 5 punten met een slot op 712 punten, pas later toen Wall Street verder moest inleveren ging de AEX future ook verder omlaag zodat we mogelijk wat lager gaan openen vandaag.

Steun nu eerst de zone 708-710 punten, later blijft de oude top rond de 702-703 punten uiteraard een doel. Een beter beeld krijg ik rond de laatste echte top van de index die we rond de 688-690 punten zien uitkomen. We blijven vooral verder kijken naar de ontwikkelingen op Wall Street. Weerstand nu eerst de zone 712-715 met later de 718 en de 725 punten.

DAX index:
De DAX moest ook wat terug maandag, we zien steun rond de 15.300 en de 15.150-15.200 punten. Vrijwel alle indices, dus ook de DAX, blijven hoe dan ook rijp voor een grotere correctie alleen is het wachten op het moment dat die op gang komt.

De richtpunten omhoog worden nu de 15.500 punten, de 15.700 en de 15.850 punten.

Euro, olie en goud:
De euro zien we nu rond de 1.206 dollar, de prijs van een vat Brent olie komt uit op 67,75 dollar terwijl een troy ounce goud nu op 1772 dollar staat.
