MM opinion on BBOZ

Hi Folks. Some really good stock picks lately and I have gotten on to a few of them. Thanks. I'd like your opinion on BBOZ please. Seeing as how you are tipping the ASX to get up around 7200, would it be wise to downsize on BBOZ and maybe get back in around the 7200 mark?

Thanks again.

Mick

Answer

BBOZ is a leverage short on the Australian market, often used as a hedge or outright bet on the market falling. While we think the air is getting thin around 7000 on the local index, there is no sell signals yet. We are targeting 7200 on the upside for the ASX after some consolidation around current levels.

The Match Out: Middle East tensions see risk off for equities

Shares tracked pre-market futures lower early in our session before headlines of a further escalation in the Middle Eastern conflict caused another wave of selling took the market to 2 month lows. Energy found support with oil cracking $US90/bbl again which was also a concern for those positioned for inflation to roll off. Until midday, traders had no interest in taking risk in today’s session but the afternoon painted a different picture. The ASX closed well off the intraday lows with many sectors rallying more than 0.5% between midday and the end of trade. Despite the Friday afternoon fight, the local market had its worst week since September, falling -220pts / -2.83%.
