SPY Daily Commentary | S/RLooking for support and resistance lines? Like the idea and follow me for intraday SPY commentary! Happy Friday! Biiiiig pull back yesterday. Impressive that the selloff broke through soo many supports. To be fair however, A lot of the supports established to this point had not had a long history, or were tested very hard. Being that today is Friday, the weekly bar stands out as the picture the market wants to paint. As of now, there's an inside bar. For bears to take the week, theyll want to close under 342. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Drive lower, with 343 holding support so far. Morning Crew: nothing special Futures Crew (/ES) 3395 is the next support the bears need to crash through.

No one know when the bulls run out of steam but they have been saving the days quite well so far. Timing the 'big drop' is not very easy, as the bulls have demonstrated. The best course of action right now is to follow the trend. Bullish until it's not. With new high's being set, it's much more probable to find supports. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Nothing special, held gains. Morning Crew: gap up. little volatility. pegging 355 is a clue. Thats the big target today. On the flipside, theres a nice gap window looking to be closed down under. Futures Crew (/ES) 3525 is the breakout number. No retest of this has been conducted yet. So it's there the futures would like revisit today. We will find out at the open if this is first order of business. Whats the futures target at the moment?

SPY Daily Commentary | S/RLooking for support and resistance lines? Like the idea and follow me for intraday SPY commentary! Happy Tuesday! Turnaround Tuesday. Yesterday had some sneakups from the bears. The market is losing some gas above 350. Expecting a collapse? Not really. A pullback would make more sense. Where to? First, the breakout a 344.6. Whats the sign there wont be a pullback? closing an hourly above 350.7 Of course, the market is ever changing, so be sure to see the updates throughout the day. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Drove lower, down to 348.5ish. it's a prior support and still held. Morning Crew: gap up. rejected. trying to float above 350. a gap up is normally bullish. especially on an uptrend. but not garnering enough support to get other big fish biting. So it's uncertain whos gonna run out the gate. Futures Crew (/ES) Have some consolidation happening. 3485 is what the bears need to cap to drive lower. Bulls need to hold 3500 and cap something above 3515.

SPY Daily Commentary | S/RLooking for support and resistance lines? Like the idea and follow me for intraday SPY commentary! Happy Friday Rescue squad assemble! Bulls came in after a surprise dump by bears in the afternoon. Didn't drive up to the psychological 350. but kept float above 348. What's to be gained from this knowledge? Bullish. Bulls really taking cautious steps to 350. 349.87 was the high before early sellers snuck in. Expecting the same slow play today. But more confident theres going to be a break of 350 than yesterday. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Continued the save getting above 349 Morning Crew: Poking higher, 349.93. set to open in range of yesterday. Futures Crew (/ES) Opening at the breakout level 3495. Not ideally the most bullish scenario. Showing some exhaustion. Under 3480 bulls should be losing out though. 3507 is the breakout high. Looks like a target for bulls to get above.

The Fed has a speech at 9:10 that the market is anticipating some news. This will, as always, cause a violent reaction one way or the other. Bulls are still looking ahead, with 350 in their eyes. Be weary that the market will have big fish in the pond today. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Continued the push up to 348.35. New high after close should be counted as bullish. Morning Crew: Gapping up higher right now. Pushing the 349 level. Futures Crew (/ES) Breakout around 3445 up to 3480. Got a pole to work with now.

Hump day was definitely a a show stopper for the bulls. Today is a follow thru for the bears if this reversal is serious. We'll see it live in the hourly chart. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Kept the float going into the close. Nothing to see here Morning Crew: Killing it downward. Either early shorts for a squeeze or a serious consideration of reversal for today. Futures Crew (/ES) Found a little bounce around 3350 but the bulls need to get and stay above 3365 to have any teammates come boost the market back up. Bears are looking to 3330 as the next target.

SPY Daily Commentary | S/RLooking for support and resistance lines? Like the idea and follow me for intraday SPY commentary! Happy Wednesday! Some energy building up near this all time high. The bulls have already set a new intraday high and would like to close a new high certainly. Graveyard Shift / Morning Crew Graveyard Shift: Kept the float going into the close. Nothing to see here Morning Crew: Opened pretty high this morning. Consolidating under the all time high. They're not ready to give this area up so easily. Futures Crew (/ES) Getting pushback at the 3394. 3400 is the goal for the bulls at this point. No really visable flag formation on the chart that can give us a timeline of them wanting to break out. More like boiling water right now. It could go over if the heat stays up, but nothing to say they couldnt have a pullback before a push.

SPY Pre-Market Thoughts | Daily CommentaryLike the idea and follow the chart for free SPY commentary all day! :) Happy Hump Day. Yesterday i was almost caught eating my words on this descending triangle. Bears came out moments before the closing bell though. Last week we had a very nice wedge formation that broke down and has become a descending triangle. This week seems set to either confirm or reverse a nice descending triangle in formation. How it looks right now: 1)Descending Wedge formation - Bulls fell short of closing above the descending wedge. So i still see the pattern as still viable. This formation occurred after a wedge break on the 26th. Descending wedges are generally made after continual pushing downward. Imagine a ball bouncing, bouncing less and less high, until it stops. 2) Unfilled gaps - 3 gaps to the north side 310.51-311.61 315.64-317.16 325.85-332.58 - 2 gaps on the south side 296.69-295.63 291.75-286.28 3) Confluence of indicators - Crossed BB 4 days ago. Have yet to close above the signal line - Daily MACD sell signal is still going down towards the zero line down - KO is touching signal line for buy. - Under 20 SMA since 24 June So what could happen today? Bull case 1) Start closing 15 min, then hourly candles above 309.2 to break out of triangle. 2) Capture 310 3) Start filling the gap starting at 310.51 - 311.61 4) Capture the hard daily resistance of 312.18 Resistance levels (Pre-Market) 310.27 309.9 310.2 310.51 311 311.61 312.18 Bear case 1) Start closing 15 min, then hourly candles below 307.22 2) Capture 306.6 4) Get to round number of 305 Support levels (Pre-Market) 306.48 309.31 308.53 307.22 306.19 305 303.53 If this helps you like and follow the chart all day. Ill be giving updates as they show up! Getting feedback helps a lot. Thanks for taking the time to read. All of this information is my interpretation and shouldn't be taken as trading advice.

J200 Market Commentary: Equities Mixed As Tech Weighs It was a mixed start to the week across global equity markets, with some major indices finding strong support from oversold levels (Europe) when viewed on a short term basis while US markets rose in the first hour of trade only to fail to hold it's intraday highs as sellers regained control and offload more stock at year-to-date lows. This time, fears around additional US-China tariffs coupled with a decline in US technology sector shares weigh heavily on markets. While the selling pressure was evident throughout the session, stocks managed to finish off their lows. In the final 15-minutes of the US trading session, the price action was as follows: S&P500 jumping by 27 points, the Dow Jones Industrial Average higher by 295 points while the Nasdaq Composite was pushed higher by 122 points as speculators shopped for end-of-day bargains. On the local market, the JSE All Share Index closed higher by 1.01%, while the Top 40 Index added 1.13% however well off the their intraday highs. This strong performance comes despite Naspers trading lower to sideways for most of the day and taking a leg lower as the US market opened. On the day, winners included Absa (+4.79%), Mr Price (+4.67%), Firstrand (+4.33%) and Nedbank (4.10%) while Naspers (-3.63%), Anglogold Ashanti (-3.86%) and Growthpoint Properties (-0.87%) weighed on the Top 40. On the currency front, the Rand strengthened throughout the day, reaching it's best level of R14.41 by 11:20am before weakening to 14:53 by the start of the US trading session. The Euro, which has been under pressure since the middle of October, held above it's 4-day support level of 1.1376 while the British Pound traded near seven-week lows as concerns around Brexit continued to linger. In Europe, stocks closed higher, helped along by a rise in automakers as China indicated that it may be considering a 50% auto tax cut. For the session, the DAX closed higher by 1.20% while the FTSE 100 and CAC40 added 1.25 and 0.44% respectively. This morning in Asia, stocks trade in mixed territory, largely shrugging off the sell-off on Wall Street. The Nikkei is higher by 1.44%, the Shanghai Composite by 1.04% while the Hang Seng has shed 0.68%. The Rand, with 15-min to go before the opening bell, trades at 14.67 versus the US Dollar. ________________________________________ Company News MTN GROUP LIMITED - Quarterly update for the period ended 30 September 2018 and renewal of cautionary announcement (extract): Salient features - Group subscribers increased quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) by 2,5 million to 225,4 million - Active data subscribers increased QoQ by 5,0 million* to 74,2 million - Active MTN Mobile Money customers increased QoQ by 1,7 million to 25,8 million - Group service revenue increased year-on-year (YoY) by 10,0% - Group data revenue increased YoY by 23,9% - MTN South Africa service revenue increased YoY by 3,0% with an EBITDA margin of 34,5% - MTN Nigeria service revenue increased YoY by 17,4% with an EBITDA margin of 43,2% - MTN Ghana service revenue increased YoY by 22,9% with an EBITDA margin of 37,6% - MTN Irancell service revenue increased YoY by 14,1% with an EBITDA margin of 35,3% MTN Group president and CEO, Rob Shuter comments: "MTN recorded an improved operational performance in many markets in the third quarter. Group service revenue grew by 10,0% year on year, ahead of our medium-term target of upper-single-digit growth, supported by continued strong growth in voice and data revenue. These results were delivered in challenging operating and currency conditions. Group outgoing voice revenue increased by 5,2% and data revenue increased by 23,9%. Higher digital revenue was led by robust growth in MTN Mobile Money. The group benefited from the particularly strong performance of operations in Nigeria and Ghana, while some operations in our West and Central Africa (WECA) region remained under pressure. MTN South Africa continues to execute on operational improvements. We made good progress on our key growth drivers of data and digital services, adding 5,0 million active data subscribers and 1,7 million new MoMo subscribers in the quarter. We successfully completed the listing of MTN Ghana. MTN Nigeria's plans to list have been challenged by the recent Central Bank of Nigeria and Attorney General of the Federal Republic of Nigeria matters, however, MTN remains committed to the listing in Nigeria and work continues in this regard. In the quarter, the group engaged extensively with authorities in Nigeria to deal with the matters they raised. Across our markets, we continued to invest in our networks, and now have the leading network net promoter score in 10 of our markets. Reported capital expenditure to the end of the September 2018 was R16,4 billion, a group capex intensity of 16,9%. We continued to optimise our balance sheet structure and reduced our gross US dollar debt by approximately US$400 million. This was supported by proceeds from the sale of MTN Cyprus of US$303 million, the settlement of a loan from our Ugandan Tower Company of US$34 million as well as the proceeds from the MTN Ghana listing of US$202 million received after the quarter's end. We also concluded the refinancing of our US$1,25 billion revolving credit facilities that are maturing in 2019 with a new five-year revolving credit facility of US$1,25 billion at an improved margin, and with an option to increase to US$1,5 billion. We continue to focus on operational improvements across our business and continue to develop our digital businesses."

J200 Market Commentary: Global Equities Down But Off The Lows Tuesday saw another down day across global markets as the sellers remained in control for much of the session on the JSE, across Asia as well in Europe as contagion and investor nervousness kept fingers on the selling button. On the Top 40 index, only 3 out of 40 shares closed in the green, this being British American Tobacco, Anglogold Ashanti and Anglo American Platinum while the downside was lead by Aspen Pharmacare, Kumba Iron Ore (which provided a muted production and sales report), Naspers and Sasol which was lower as oil prices declined sharply following an announcement by Saudi Arabia to make up for any supply disruptions with higher output. Also adding pressure on the downside were financial services shares such as banks which was down by 2.6%. In Europe, stocks ended in the red with the DAX, FTSE100 and CAC40 closing lower by 2.17%, 1.24% and 1.69% respectively while the broader EuroStoxx 50 shed 1.50%, lead lower by Bayer which declined by 9.52%. In the commodities space, Gold experienced some late-afternoon selling as US Futures rose, leaving the safe-haven with a lack of bids, while Brent Crude Oil this morning is pairing it's losses following a nearly 5% decline for the previous session. This morning in Asia, stocks are on the rise as a "recovery" on Wall Street helps to lift sentiment. Tencent is higher by 1.22%. Today, the major focus locally will be the Medium Term Budget Policy Statement (MTPBS), presented by Finance Minister Tito Mboweni in Parliament. JSE Major Sectors Resources 10 -1.66% Industrial 25 -2.42% Financial 15 -2.22% ________________________________________ Company News Kumba Iron Ore Limited production and sales report for the third quarter ended 30 September 2018 Kumba Iron Ore Limited production and sales report for the third quarter ended 30 September 2018 Kumba continued to improve on safety and delivered a solid operating performance, while maintaining production and sales volumes in line with guidance. Throughout this report, production and sales volumes referred to are 100% of Sishen Iron Ore Company Proprietary Limited (“SIOC”), and attributable to shareholders of Kumba as well as the non-controlling interests in SIOC. Overview: • Safe production ensured Kumba remained fatality free and continued to improve on multiple safety metrics. • Production volumes reduced by 9% to 10.5Mt as planned, to offset elevated stock levels arising from rail constraints in H1 2018. • Export sales decreased by 10% to 9.7Mt as a result of scheduled refurbishment by Transnet. Total production volumes decreased by 9% to 10.5Mt (Q3 2017: 11.5Mt) as planned, to offset elevated stock levels at Sishen and Kolomela arising from Transnet rail constraints in H1 2018. Production volumes were also impacted by the slight decrease in processing plant yields as Kumba focused on producing high quality products to maximise the value of tonnes railed to port and benefit from the strong demand for high-grade ore. Production at Sishen and Kolomela reduced by 10% to 7Mt (Q3 2017: 7.8Mt) and 6% to 3.5Mt (Q3 2017: 3.7Mt), respectively. Waste stripping at Sishen increased by 7% to 45Mt (Q3 2017: 42Mt) and remained flat at Kolomela (Q3 2017: 16Mt), as we continued our progress towards benchmark efficiency. Export sales decreased by 10% to 9.7Mt (Q3 2017: 11.4Mt) due to the scheduled refurbishment of the ship loaders at Saldanha which resulted in single loading of vessels during the quarter. Total finished stock increased to 6.6Mt from 6.2Mt at 30 June 2018. Guidance Kumba continued to work closely with Transnet to improve logistical performance and good progress has been made during the quarter. As a result, the 2018 full year guidance announced in Kumba's 2018 interim results on 24 July 2018 has been maintained as follows: Total production of 43-44Mt – Sishen 29-30Mt – Kolomela 14Mt – Waste – Sishen 170-180Mt – Kolomela 55-57Mt – Total sales of 42-44Mt

J200 Market Commentary: Global Rally Fades As Sentiment Sours The biggest one-day rally in three years in Chinese equities on Monday failed to inspire other major global markets to shoot the lights out. This comes as a traders and investors in Europe and the United States face homegrown hurdles that could potentially put the brakes on short term gains. In the US, mid-term elections are sure to bring a fresh bout of volatility while in Europe, concerns over Italy is putting pressure on the region's currency, the Euro, which slipped back below the 1.15 level by the close of trade on Monday. In Europe, stocks ended in the red with the DAX, FTSE100 and CAC40 closing lower by 0.26%, 0.10% and 0.62% respectively while the broader EuroStoxx 50 shed 0.65%. Leading indices to the downside were shares such as Amsterdam-listed Philips (-8.36%), Ireland's CRH (-3.36%) and Spanish bank BBVA (-2.11%). On the JSE, the All Share Index closed higher (+0.21%) driven by a rally in Naspers and Pepkor Holdings which gained 3.20% and 2.62% respectively. The Top 40 closed higher (+0.28%), as a rally in the last twenty minutes of trading helped the index close in positive territory. This morning in Asia, stocks have given up a substantial portion of the gains seen on Monday as the sell-off in the US grips traders in the East. Looming earnings releases, the global interest rate path, Italian budget concerns and geopolitical tensions remains front of mind for traders. In terms of the risk radar, Gold is softer as the US Dollar trades near a two-month high while gains is being seen in the Japanese Yen as the safe-haven catches a bid. On the JSE, Top 40 Futures have opened lower by 1.6%.

AUDJPY: Considered the ultimate risk-on pair, the pair tends to rally when markets run and decline when risk off commences. A look at a relative chart vs Gold sees a breakout having occurred during July 2018. We now see a double formation as the price re-tests the breakout level, reflective of the shift to risk off. ________________________________________ Company News Howden Africa Holdings Limited - Trading statement for the period ended 31 December 2018 SSubsequent to the update of results on the 19th July 2018, shareholders are advised that Howden Africa Holding Ltd (“HAHL”) is expecting earnings per share ("EPS") and headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) for the period ending 31 December 2018 to be between 222.08 and 307.36 cents and between 222.06 and 307.38 cents respectively, this is a decline of between 28% and 48% in comparison to the previously reported corresponding period. The deterioration of the results is as a consequence of entering the year with a lower order book across all of the HAHL group of companies’ (“Group”) business segments, but primarily within the power market. The ongoing financial constraints of customers, subdued economic outlook and general industry uncertainty has created a challenging trading environment for the Group with a decline in annuity revenue and pressure on traditional trading margins. This financial information has not been reviewed and reported on by the auditors of HAHL. In light of the intended corporate action and to provide shareholders with all available information to make an informed decision we have decided to release this trading statement before the expected Firm Intention Announcement. For the Shareholders to understand the operational results an Adjusted EPS (EPS net of tax adjusted interest) is expected to be between 143.53 and 211.86 cents a decline of between 38% and 58% in comparison to the corresponding period Adjusted EPS of 341.65 cents. All amounts stated for December 2017 relate to the Audited EPS and HEPS amounts in the Annual Report. Restatements relating to IFRS15 have been not been taken into account for this trading statement review. ________________________________________ Blood On The Streets - But Red Equals Opportunity This morning the S&P 500 continues to show weakness as it's breaks below the 200dma. If you managed to get into the short and "sold when the sun was shining", you are 209 points in the green by this morning and despite the risk-off sentiment in global markets, traders should be looking to position themselves for rebound opportunities. We may not be there yet but I want to be ready. Technically, support for the S&P500 Futures comes in at 2704, 2691 and 2626.

Unum Market Commentary: Equities Lower As Fed Hikes; Dollar Gain On Wednesday all eyes were on the US Federal Reserve as market participants awaited the commentary following the near-certain 25 basis point hike which saw the lending rate increase from 2.00% to 2.25%. General commentary from the committee highlighted the most known factors including: (1) the health of the US economy (2) low unemployment (3) rising wages and (4) low and stable inflation. Also stated by Chairman Powell was that a gradual return to policy normalization will help to sustain the strong economy for the long-run benefit of all Americans. The initial reaction saw the US Dollar weaken, which saw a print of 1.1797 versus the Euro which was followed by strength that saw a print below 1.1750 post the US market close. Versus the South African Rand, the greenback tested a low of 14.08, settling to 14.15 by 6:30am this morning. In the equities space, US stocks finished lower, with the Dow Jones, S&P500 and Nasdaq 100 losing 0.40%, 0.33% and 0.21% respectively while the Russell 2000, the index which possibly better reflects the domestic US economy, took the biggest hit, losing 1.02% for the session. This morning Asian stocks are tracking Wall Street's losses with the Nikkei 225 down by 0.37%, the Hang Seng lower by 0.37% while the Shanghai Composite is down by 0.39%. GDP Projected Changes as per the FOMC JSE Major Sectors Resources 10 -1.89% Industrial 25 -0.17% Financial 15 -0.01% Below is a great chart from Statista which highlighted where tourists have been spending the most amount of money. At the top of the list was the US which received 75m inbound arrivals and where inbound expenditure was around $210bn. The Walt Disney Company - A Beneficiary of Tourism - View by Lester Davids One share that may be a beneficiary of increased tourist travel to and spending in the United States is the Walt Disney Company with their world-class theme-park entertainment which has a long and profitable operating history. The share has been a laggard over the last few years as it's sports network, ESPN, has lost subscribers. We will however in future see the company launch it's own streaming service which could benefit the share. The earnings multiple (PE) is undemanding and technically (as per the weekly chart) we are seeing a breakout. Will this be a change in long term trend?

Unum Market Commentary: JSE Falls Financials See Selling Pressur On Tuesday the JSE came under pressure as it caught up with a softer global sentiment driven by traders expecting economic data, USD-China trade negotiations as well as political maneuverings out of Washington. For the day, the All Share Index was lower by 0.49% while the Top 40 declined by 0.64%. Leading the declining were financials, with Standard Bank and Nedbank which were lower by 3.99% and 3.14% respectively while Bidvest (-3.76%) also added to the losses. In the winning lane, Sasol was boosted by a rising oil price, adding 3.87% for the session while Kumba Iron Ore attracted buying interest, adding 3.88% for the session. In Europe, stock were mostly higher with the FTSE 100 adding 0.62% on the day. US Stocks were mixed, with the Dow Jones, S&P 500 lower by 0.26% and 0.13% while the Nasdaq was higher by 0.18%. This morning Asian equities are higher with the Hang Seng leading the way with a 1.6% gain. JSE Major Sectors Resources 10 -0.05% Industrial 25 +0.31% Financial 15 +0.34% Two ideas (by Lester Davids) that had mixed results recently were a short/sell on the DAX and a Buy/Long on the FTSE100. Here's how that played out: #1. DAX Futures - Stop-loss breached #2. FTSE 100 Futures While consolidating, the price slipped below the stop-loss level before moving in the anticipated direction. ________________________________________ Platinum's Pause - Technical View by Lester Davids Platinum has had a solid recovery from the lows of $756 just over one month ago. The price is now trading in line with the downward trend line going back to the year-to-date peak of $1033 as well as near the horizontal resistance that has been in place over the last 13 weeks. While the price appears to be bottoming over the medium term, the short term dircetion may see a pause as a short term recovery in the US Dollar curbs further upside.

From being the second company (behind Apple) to reach 1 trillion US Dollars in market value and being a feature across feature across many active and passive funds, the share has become nearly a proxy for US stock market resilience. Today I'm having a brief look at the short term technical position for the share and how it may influence near term performance for US Stocks. The price has performed strongly year-to-date, appreciating by 64%. Recently the share has breached it's upward trend line that has been in place since October 2017 and has also breached support on it's RSI technical indicator which is starting to turn lower and trending toward the short term bearish zone. When Amazon is overlayed versus the S&P 500 we see the a strong correlation in performance over the short term. Bottom Line: With the upward trend line having been breached and the RSI pointing toward the bearish "zone", Amazon under-performance may filter through to the broader S&P 500 index. ________________________________________ Aus miners: BHP Billiton (+0.86%) Rio Tinto (+0.97%) S32 (+1.56%) FANGs Facebook (+1.52%) Amazon (+1.01%) Netflix (+2.33%) Google (+0.63%) FTSE Miners: Anglo American plc (-1.40%) BHP Billiton plc (-0.41%) Glencore plc (-2.02%) Alibaba Holdings (+0.89%) Tencent Holdings (-1.97%) Share Link: bit.ly/JoinUnum ________________________________________ The Unum Capital Trading Desk Please feel free to contact the Unum Trading desk for any trading related queries : Tel: 011 384 2929
