STOCKS TO WATCH

Results
• Anthem Inc: The U.S. health insurer raised its profit target for 2021, as strength in its pharmacy benefits management business helped it beat first-quarter earnings estimates.

Excluding items, Anthem earned $7.01 per share in the quarter ended March 31, compared with analysts' average estimate of $6.51.

• ASML Holding NV: ASML, one of the biggest suppliers to semiconductor companies, reported a better-than-expected net income for the first quarter and raised its full-year sales forecast, citing strong demand amid a global computer chip shortage. The company now sees full year sales growth at 30%, up from its forecast of at least 10% in January. Sales in the first quarter were 4.36 billion euros. ASML company posted a quarterly net profit of 1.33 billion euros, while analysts had expected 1.08 billion euros, on revenue of 4.02 billion euros.

• Baker Hughes Co: The oilfield equipment and services provider's top boss reiterated he is "cautiously optimistic" about oil demand recovering this year from the coronavirus blow, echoing a view he shared on the company's last earnings call. The company reported a 40% fall in first-quarter adjusted profit, compared to the fourth, as the pandemic's hit on fuel demand lingers, weighing on demand for oilfield equipment and services lower. Baker Hughes said its adjusted operating income fell to $270 million in the three months ended March 31, from $462 million in the fourth quarter.

• CSX Corp: The U.S. railroad operator reported lower-than-expected quarterly profit on Tuesday after severe "polar vortex" winter storms, COVID-19 disruptions and fuel costs weighed on results. The company, which operates in the eastern United States, had first-quarter net earnings of $706 million, or 93 cents per share, down from $770 million, or $1.00 per share, a year earlier. Results from the latest quarter missed Wall Street's average estimate by 2 cents per share. Revenue fell 1% to $2.81 billion, led by declines in automotive, metals and equipment, chemicals and coal.

• Halliburton Co: The company reported a 6% rise in first-quarter adjusted profit from the previous three months, as a rebound in oil prices from pandemic lows fueled drilling activity and demand for oilfield services. Adjusted net income attributable to company rose to $170 million, or 19 cents per share, in the quarter ended March 31, from the $160 million, or 18 cents per share, in the fourth quarter.

• Lithia Motors Inc: The auto retailer topped Wall Street estimates for first-quarter profit as the auto retailer benefited from strong demand and higher vehicle prices. Net income was $156.2 million, or $5.81 per share, in the quarter ended March 31, compared with $46.2 million, or $1.97 per share, a year earlier. Total revenue surged 55% to $4.34 billion. Excluding items, the company earned $5.89 per share, compared with a Refinitiv IBES estimate of $4.76.

• Nasdaq Inc: The exchange operator reported a better-than-expected quarterly profit, boosted by strength in its trading business against a backdrop of high market volatility and a surge in initial public offerings.

Revenue from Nasdaq's market services unit, its biggest business, jumped 20% to $338 million.​

• Netflix Inc: The company said slower production of TV shows and movies during the pandemic hurt subscriber growth in the first quarter. Roughly 3.98 million people signed up for Netflix from January through March, below the 6.25 million average projection of analysts surveyed by Refinitiv.

Excluding items, the company earned $3.75 per share in the first quarter, beating analyst estimates of $2.97 per share.

• Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson: Sweden's Ericsson reported first-quarter core earnings above market estimates as strong 5G equipment sales offset a loss of royalty income due to a patent fight with Samsung Electronics. Quarterly adjusted operating earnings rose to 5.3 billion Swedish crowns from 4.6 billion crowns a year ago, beating the mean forecast of 5.0 billion crowns. Total revenue, which benefited from bans in several countries on the use of technology from China's Huawei, was 49.8 billion crowns, unchanged from last year due in part to currency headwinds. It missed estimates of 53.42 billion crowns.

• Coinbase Global Inc: Deutsche Boerse said it would de-list the shares of the cryptocurrency exchange from its Xetra trading system and the Frankfurt stock exchange by end of Friday's trading session. "The reason for the de-listing is a missing reference data for these shares," Deutsche Boerse said, adding the de-listing would apply until further notice.

• Facebook Inc: Instagram is rolling out a feature to prevent users from viewing possibly abusive messages by filtering offensive words, phrases and emojis on the photo-sharing app. The company said that along with the filter option for abusive direct messages, it will also make it harder for people blocked by users to circumvent and contact them through new accounts.

• JPMorgan Chase & Co: Sustainability ratings agency Standard Ethics said it had downgraded the corporate sustainability rating of JPMorgan Chase over its role in financing the European Super League. Standard Ethics, which ranks companies based on their performance on a range of environmental, social and governance-related measures said it was downgrading the bank to E+ from EE- on its rating system. It said the action amounted to a downgrade to "Non-compliant" versus the prior "Adequate.

• Moderna Inc: Moderna said on Tuesday it had secured a new COVID-19 vaccine supply agreement with Israel for 2022, under which the country has the option to buy doses of one of the company's variant-specific vaccine candidates. The announcement follows two earlier agreements between Israel and Moderna to supply a total of 10 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.

• Pfizer Inc: Brazil is in talks to buy another 100 million doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine, Communications Minister Fabio Faria said, as the country scrambles to procure more shots after a sluggish start to its vaccination program.

• Royal Dutch Shell PLC: Shell said it was conducting a feasibility study with partners to trial the use of hydrogen fuel cells for ships in Singapore, the first such move for the oil major. If successful, the trial will pave the way for cleaner, hydrogen-powered shipping, the company said, adding that its analysis points to hydrogen with fuel cells as the zero-emissions technology having the greatest potential to help the shipping sector achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.

• Stellantis NV: The carmaker said it would replace digital speedometers with more old-fashioned analogue ones in one of its Peugeot models, in a fallout from a global shortage of semiconductor chips that is roiling the auto industry. The change will only affect Peugeot 308 cars, among group brands that include Chrysler, Citroen and Jeep since France's PSA Group merged with Italian-American company Fiat-Chrysler this year to form Stellantis.

• Tesla Inc: The carmaker's vehicle registrations in California dropped marginally during the first quarter compared with last year, weighed down by a slump in Model 3 registrations, according to data from Cross-Sell, a research firm that collates title and registration data. California registrations for Tesla's Model 3 mass-market sedan fell 54% on a yearly basis to 8,060, while Tesla's Model Y compact crossover utility vehicle garnered 12,227 in the first quarter, Cross-Sell data showed on Tuesday.

Goedemorgen
De markt lijkt nu dan toch weg te lopen van de recordzone waar we een week of 2 mee te maken hadden. Zowel Wall Street als Europa moesten weer inleveren, Europa verloor rond de 1,5% terwijl Wall Street tussen de 0,75% en 1% lager moest. Vanmorgen zien we nog niet echt herstel, de AEX zal wat hoger van start gaan zo te zien door ASML dat zwaar meeweegt maar de DAX blijft ongeveer gelijk. Verder zien we dat de futures op Wall Street iets lager staan.

De cijfers van ASML vielen beter dan werd verwacht vanmorgen, zo werd de doelstelling weer wat verhoogd terwijl men ook meer winst wist te behalen. ASML kan rond de €10 hoger openen zo te zien voorbeurs, de vraag is of dat de gehele dag zo zal blijven? Gisteren nabeurs op Wall Street kwam er wel een tegenvaller bij een van de FAANG aandelen, Netflix kon de verwachtingen bij lange na niet halen door dat het aantal nieuwe abonnees veel lager uitkwam dan vorig jaar tijdens het eerste kwartaal. Het aandeel Netflix daalde nabeurs 11%.

De markt momenteel:
Dat de markt even een stapje terug doet lijkt me meer dan normaal maar het wil natuurlijk nog lang niet zeggen dat de uptrend meteen zal ophouden te bestaan. Daarvoor zal er nog een procent of 2 meer vanaf moeten als ik naar de grafieken kijk. Wat dan ook belangrijk zal zijn is dat de indices minder divergentie moeten vertonen. We merken hoe dan ook dat al vanaf vorige week er enkele pioniers ofwel de sectoren die de kar trokken aan het begin van de rally het nu al een week of 2 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.

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.

LET OP !! Vanaf vandaag een nieuwe aanbieding die loopt vanaf nu tot 1 JULI voor €39 (Polleke Trading €49) ...

Technische conditie Wall Street:
Wat betreft Wall Street zien we verzwakking via de charts en nu voor het eerst sinds een wat langere periode ook bij de 3 grote indices. De Nasdaq, de Nasdaq 100, de S&P 500 en de Dow Jones. Het eerste doel wordt denk ik nu het 20-daags gemiddelde, later de steun rond het 50-daags gemiddelde dat al in beeld komt bij enkele indexen. Zoals ik al aangaf blijven de SOX index en de Russel 2000 index zwak presteren want ook gisteren verloren beide indexen weer meer dan de traditionele indexen.

Technisch oogt het dus wat minder goed nu maar het is nog niet zo dat er een definitieve draai te zien is. Er is ook binnen de uptrend nog niets aan de hand maar we moeten wel beginnen met op te letten. Eens de indices het niet meer lukt om nieuwe toppen en in dit geval dus records neer te zetten kan het wel eens de start worden van een langere fase met lagere koersen.

Technische conditie AEX en DAX:

AEX index:
Bij de AEX wordt het nu opletten want de index kon nog maar net boven de 700 punten sluiten. De eerste steun moest eraan geloven, we letten nu op de laatste top van dit jaar die rond de 688-690 punten wacht. Zoals ik eerder al aangaf is die zone veel belangrijker dan de zone 702-703 punten. Met de wind in de zeilen via ASML vandaag zal de AEX wel weer hoger starten, we moeten daarna zien of het kan doorzetten.

Weerstand nu de 708-710 punten, later de 712-715 zone, de 718 en de 725 punten. Steun nu de 702-702 na de opening, later de belangrijke zone 688-690 punten.

DAX index:
De DAX moest weer terug tot onder de 15.300 punten zodat de uitbraak vals blijkt te zijn. Weerstand nu uiteraard weer die 15.300 punten, later de zone rond de 15.500 punten waar we de topzone zien uitkomen nu.

De richtpunten omlaag worden nu eerst de 15.000 en de 14.900 punten, later de 14.750 en de 14.500 punten. Dan moet de markt een echte top neer hebben gezet gevolgd door een grotere daling tot de onderkan van het oplopende trendkanaal. Na de daling van gisteren komt de DAX nu heel dicht bij het 20-daags gemiddelde.

Euro, olie en goud:
De euro zien we nu rond de 1.203 dollar, de prijs van een vat Brent olie komt uit op 66,2 dollar terwijl een troy ounce goud nu op 1785 dollar staat.

De LIVEBLOG en Twitter:
