After a strong start to the year for global equities, there is plenty going on for investors to watch this week: earnings releases from major global companies, China returning from its Lunar New Year celebrations, central banks in the US, Europe, and the UK expected to raise rates, and tensions flaring up again in the Middle East after an Israeli drone strike inside Iran. Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis Research, notes that broad-based advances in US equities, in particular the Nasdaq index, support the case for further upward moves.
