Technically Speaking...
JCI continued to push higher on Wednesday after the index bounced off low last Friday. Wednesday saw it settled once more above the stiff resistance at 5,200 ahead of the all-time high of 5,251. Still, more commitment is needed to secure the upside potential.
As for now, JCI is aiming to secure its ground above 5,200 and subsequently the focus will turn to the next resistance at 5,251, the all-time record high while near-term supports are seen at 5,150-65 (congestion area) and then 5,135, the former lower consolidation band, 5,039 and 5,000, followed by 4,950, the former EMA-50 resistance now turned as support.
MACD has swung back to negative area but ticked higher on Monday and Tuesday whilst RSI has backed away from above the 70% mark but gradually crawled its way back up. Volume was up on Wednesday, however.
Day Ahead
Lack of domestic data and catalysts, investors may look elsewhere for the next catalyst to watch. US ADP Employment is set for release on Thursday and the private sector is seen adding 210k jobs in August, slightly lower than 218k seen in July. Other data on Thursday include the jobless claims, trade balance as well as the ISM for the service sector.
