In the daily chart there are two indexes related to the tech sector:
- NASDAQ 100
NDX
for the American market
- NASDAQ OMX CHINA TECHNOLOGY CHXN9000 for technology companies that are domiciled in China or Hong Kong
From 2020 until today the two markets have have had an upward trend (albeit with different speeds) until the first months of 2021. Their trends has had a correlation close to 1 until the reversal of the Chinese technology market, while the American market continued in the upward trend. Obviously, with these opposite trends, the correlation reversed, reaching values below -0.50 during summer/autumn 2021.
In the following chart, there are the same indexes from 2017 to today with weekly timeframes.
NDX
and
CHXN9000
have moved in the same direction, albeit with different speeds, but opposite values such as the current ones have never occurred with such extreme values (opposite direction and very large gap).
By extending the interval to 2013, the gap is more evident:
Without going into the merits of internal policy and geopolitical considerations between China and USA, nor about the economic reason behind these values; the charts of the last few months show different interesting pattern.
The NASDAQ 100
NDX
will test the validity of its uptrend in the next few sessions.
At the end of 2021 the index failed to mark new highs ATH, but fell in the zone 15.550-15.700, current area of static support zone (previous resistance) but also dynamic support (lower trendline of the upward channel); furthermore, indicators show a bearish divergence, a symptom of the index's loss of bullish momentum.
An opposite situation can be found in NASDAQ OMX CHINA TECHNOLOGY CHXN9000 .
A bearish trend can be seen throughout 2021, with indicators showing bullish divergence, a symptom of loss of bearish momentum.
The divergences in the two markets could cause the gap to narrow as the NADAQ significantly outperformed the Chinese index over the course of 2021.
It might be interesting to set up a LONG / SHORT strategy, using for example two ETFs (even if the benchmark may be different):
- LONG
KWEB
- SHORT
