Este capítulo cuenta con la colaboración de ford.es.El mercado ha alcanzado en las últimas semanas un claro punto de inflexión. Los principales índices norteamericanos han alcanzado ya lo que se conoce como el Techo Deepseek, ese nivel que no es un simple punto técnico, sino que fue el origen de la última gran corrección relevante que se vio en las bolsas en el mes de abril.En aquel momento la excusa que encontraron inversores y analistas fue la imposición de aranceles generalizados para todos y cada uno de los socios comerciales de EEUU. El Nasdaq 100, el Nasdaq Compuesto, el propio S&P 500, ya se han encaramado ese techo. Y, la única nota discordante en Wall Street la pone el Dow Jones Industrial, que todavía se encuentra un 4% de dichos niveles.El alcance de estos niveles, junto con a cercanía en el calendario de la celebración del 4 de julio en EEUU -tradicionalmente, Wall Street ha sabido aguantar el tipo y escalar posiciones hasta la emblemática fiesta del 4 de julio- hace pensar que, "tarde o temprano, cualquier excusa servirá para que llegue la próxima corrección".Así lo entiende el analista técnico Joan Cabrero, quien en el último episodio del podcast Estrategia de Mercado reitera que hay que irse a los cuarteles de verano. "En todas tendencias alcistas hay movimientos intermedios que son bajistas y eso son las correcciones que queremos aprovechar para comprar. Porque para comprar, como siempre digo, hay que vender, eso es un hecho", destaca el experto.En este sentido el experto alude en su comentario estratégico semanal al refranero español, para recordar que prefiere que "el último duro que lo gane otro". Es decir, que como bien decía Sancho Panza en El Quijote, "más vale pájaro en mano que ciento volando", porque en bolsa, a veces conviene recoger antes de que el viento se lleve lo ganado.De hecho, Cabrero asegura en el episodio que es partidario de aprovechar la euforia para reducir bolsa y cuando llegue la corrección comprar de nuevo.Una situación diferente en EuropaEn Europa la partida es diferente. Las bolsas europeas están poniendo a prueba las bases de un canal y una posible bandera que viene acotando la consolidación durante las últimas semanas.No se encenderán las alarmas de corrección mientras el Ibex 35 no pierda los 13.750 puntos y el EuroStoxx 50 se mantenga por encima de los 5.200. Precisamente desde esos soportes, Europa reacciona y eso refuerza su papel como auténtica línea roja: o bien estamos ante la típica consolidación previa al último éxtasis alcista, que he visto mil veces, o ante el inicio de una corrección en toda regla.

Sara Carbonell, directora general de Banco BiG, analiza el momento de los mercados y qué esperar de ellos para el segundo semestre. “Ha sido un semestre complicado, con volatilidad, aranceles y conflictos geopolíticos”, señala la invitada. Otro de los focos, para ella, es la situación de la deuda americana, la inflación y la posible recesión. Pero como nos cuenta, a pesar de esto tenemos “la renta variable americana cerca de máximos históricos y el balance no ha sido tan malo como pensábamos”. La directora general de Banco BiG, comenta los datos macroeconómicos que nos esperan hoy de Estados Unidos. De todos ellos, el más importante es el PCE deflactor. “Tenemos unos niveles de deuda muy altos en Estados Unidos”, asegura la experta. Además, señala que “aunque el mayor tenedor de deuda americana es el Gobierno, Japón también es un gran tenedor de deuda americana”. ¿Preocupan los precios por el tema arancelario? La analista opina que “todo va en bucle, el dato del PCE es muy importante y la situación de la economía americana preocupa en los mercados”. La renta variable europea está teniendo un gran rendimiento este año. Dentro de los índices, el Eurostoxx lleva una subida en el año del 7%. El Ibex 35 lleva una subida del 19%. Si lo comparamos con la Bolsa estadounidense, el Dow Jones, aunque está en zona de máximos, lleva una subida del 2%. “El año pasado ya lo hizo muy bien Europa y por eso los índices europeos tenían más potencial de recorrido”, apunta la experta. Aunque también apunta a que estamos en “una situación económica mejor y que hay sectores europeos que tienen mucho potencial como el caso de Indra en el sector defensa”. La analista piensa que “Europa, en la segunda mitad del año, puede seguir haciéndolo muy bien”.

Este capítulo cuenta con la colaboración de ford.es.El peso de la bolsa en cartera debería quedar en un 30 o 40% y mantener un 60-70% en liquidezLa escena técnica acompaña en esta ocasión al guion geopolítico"En los mercados como en la vida, saber bajarse a tiempo también es parte del viaje"  Pocas veces, el escenario técnico acompaña tanto al guion geopolítico como en la actualidad. Los mercados financieros se enfrentan en las últimas sesiones a una situación de tensión que concuerda a la perfección con el incremento de las tiranteces bélicas entre Irán, Israel y, quien sabe si EEUU. "Estoy esperando a que el mercado replique la caída de abril, que fue de un 25% en el caso de Nasdaq 100", explica contundente el analista técnico de elEconomista.es, Joan Cabrero, que recuerda que para volver a comprar bolsa hay que tener liquidez, hay que tener munición. Hay que saber vender, explica el experto y recuerda que, a veces, en los mercados como en la vida, saber bajarse a tiempo también es parte del viaje tal y como señalaba Bernard Baruch al indicar que había "hecho dinero vendiendo demasiado pronto"."Propongo una estrategia que es la de irse a los cuarteles de verano, vámonos a los cuarteles de verano, reduzcamos la exposición, cosechemos, vayámonos a niveles del 30-40% de exposición a bolsa, que significa tener un 60-70% de liquidez. No se arrepentirán, amigos míos, tengan liquidez, váyanse a la playa, váyanse a la montaña y disfruten de las vacaciones, del calor del verano, de la piscina, del mar, de lo que quieran, pero sin tener una exposición muy elevada a bolsa, es momento de recoger, de cosechar, de estar tranquilos y esperar acontecimientos", destaca Cabrero en el último episodio del podcast Estrategia de Mercado. Esa estrategia permitiría al inversor atesorar la liquidez necesaria para poder disparar, como buenos francotiradores, con una ecuación rentabilidad-riesgo más atractiva y con las aguas más tranquilas en los mercados. Y es que, no hay que olvidar la escena técnica que tenemos encima de la mesa, con el Nasdaq 100 alcanzando los máximos del año -que fueron el origen de la última corrección que bauticé como el Techo de DeepSeek y que ahora vuelve a escena como posible borde del precipicio-, y con las bolsas de Europa, amenazando con romper sus soportes, tanto en el EuroStoxx 50, en los 5.200 puntos, como en el Ibex 35, en los 13.700 o 13.800 puntos. "Si esa ruptura se confirma, tocaría dar por terminado el rally nacido en los mínimos de abril y empezar a prepararse para un nuevo escenario", enfatiza Cabrero. "Si se pierden estos soportes, comedia finita est, el rally que nació en abril se acabó"

Este capítulo cuenta con la colaboración de ford.es.En Wall Street se vigilan los 21.700 puntos del Nasdaq Después de las fuertes alzas que han llevado a las bolsas europeas a rebotar más de un 20% desde los mínimos de abril y tras la reciente consolidación -consumiendo tiempo en vez de corrigiendo en profundidad-, los selectivos de referencia en Europa se encuentran en una situación complicada para quienes comprar en estos momentos, pero también para quien haya participado del último rally, que puede llegar a considerar que es normal que en cualquier momento pueda haber una fase de ajuste. "De momento el Ibex 35 lleva 15 sesiones moviéndose lateral y daría una primera señal de alerta, si pierde los 14.000 puntos. Si esto sucede yo empezaría a hacer un poco el acordeón, disminuir un poco la exposición en bolsa española, recoger beneficios, cosechar, porque en ese caso es probable que asistamos a una caída a los 13.700, que es donde estaría el segundo punto de soporte importante que si se pierde sí que haría saltar las alarmas porque escenificaría un agotamiento comprador", explica Joan Cabrero, analista técnico y director de estrategia de Ecotrader en el último episodio del podcast Estrategia de Mercado. Este movimiento, eso sí puede ser una buena oportunidad para aquellos que busquen una mejor ecuación rentabilidad-riesgo.En Europa, el nivel clave que no debería perderse para seguir confiando en un contexto alcista, al menos a corto plazo discurres por los 5.300 puntos del EuroStoxx 50. "En este selectivo, la situación lateral es distinta", advierte Cabrero al estar el índice "consolidando dentro de un triángulo". Luego ya miraría los mínimos de la vela del día 23 de mayo, que fue el último día con un conato bajista contundente en Europa, que se encuentran en los 5.250 enteros. ¿Motivos más que suficientes para empezar a recoger beneficios?La situación técnica al otro lado del charco es bien distinta. Esta semana pasada el Nasdaq 100 ya rebasó la barrera los 22.000 puntos, al llegar a los 22.040, muy cerca de los máximos históricos y del año, donde se encuentra el Techo de Deepseek de los 22.222. "Si el Nasdaq pierde los 21.700 puntos, que son los mínimos de la semana pasada, se confirmaría un agotamiento comprador a muy corto, unido a que estamos en el Techo de Deepseek, sería la excusa perfecta para empezar a hacer el acordeón", afirma Cabrero. Eso sí, el experto matiza que no es cuestión de volverse locos vendiendo, porque sigue pensando que existe la posibilidad de que ese techo de Deepseek sea roto al alza, pero, si se pierden los mínimos de la semana pasada se evidenciarían los primeros signos de debilidad una vez ya se han alcanzado objetivos y resistencias tan importantes, motivo más que suficiente para empezar a recoger beneficios.

Hoy en Capital Intereconomía, Pepe Baynat, director de Bolsas y Futuros.com, cuenta la situación del Ibex 35: “Muestra mucha fortaleza”, tras haber superado niveles clave, y apunta que, “la pérdida de 13.858 ya nos daría una situación un tanto peligrosa, pero sobre todo si perdiéramos 13.500, es cuando veríamos problemas de verdad”. Por el contrario, el analista indica que: “Si el índice logra superar los máximos de ayer, en la zona de 14.180, podría continuar su avance” y lo lógico sería que continuara subiendo ya que se está consolidando bien. En cuanto al EuroStoxx, destaca que “lo está haciendo mejor que el Ibex”, y fija como soporte relevante la zona de los mínimos de hace dos viernes, en los 5.255. “Si logra superar los 5.463, ahí nos daría seguramente un nuevo impulso en dirección a los máximos históricos en la zona de 5.570”, concluye. Situación del mercado americano El Dow Jones ha recuperado su media de 200 sesiones, lo cual es muy positivo. “Ahora está consolidando por encima de esa media, y eso es una buena señal”, explica Pepe Baynat. Hay una resistencia clara en la zona de los 43.000 puntos y ese es el nivel clave. “Si se supera esa resistencia, podríamos ver un movimiento al alza interesante”. En cuanto al Nasdaq: “Sigue muy fuerte, cerca de sus máximos históricos en la zona de los 22.185 puntos”. Es importante diferenciar por compañías, ya que algunas lo hacen bastante mejor que otras. “El índice se ha consolidado tras una fuerte subida y ahora rompe al alza”, destaca el analista. Si llega a esos máximos y los supera, podríamos ver un nuevo tramo alcista, “incluso en verano”. Pepe Baynat advierte que Solaria sigue siendo típicamente bajista y aunque ha rebotado desde niveles cercanos a los 6 euros, “la media de 200 sesiones sigue con pendiente negativa”, por lo que “necesita consolidar”. Acciona: “Superó una resistencia clave en los 133 euros” y ha subido con fuerza desde entonces, pero ahora “no es el mejor punto de entrada”, recomienda el analista.

El Eurostoxx y el Ibex, se deslizan ligeramente a la baja, sin embargo, para la opinión del experto financiero, la situación sigue siendo positiva en Europa que “Comparado con el SP&500 lo está haciendo mejor”, también es cierto que en el Eurostoxx hay “ganadores y perdedores, España dentro de los ganadores” según indica Alfayate. Por otro lado, Alfayate explica que “el SP&500 de un momento a otro puede retomar la senda alcista”, pero la apuesta principal sigue siendo Europa, “seguimos pensando que hay que estar en Europa” comenta.

Hoy en Capital Intereconomía hablamos sobre mercados y no hay ningún elemento técnico que haga pensar que ya ha finalizado las subidas. Roberto Moro, analista de Apta Negocios, explica: “Para mí el escenario americano no ha variado, sigue siendo un escenario de recuperación de los máximos históricos anteriores y en Europa no es así, el DAX ha roto por encima de sus máximos históricos, el Ibex 35 más incluso, con mayor contundencia y al Eurostoxx le queda un 2%”. Con ello,puede que haya unos periodos de consolidación, que en la medida en la que se respete determinados niveles, que son el origen del último hueco alcista, cabe seguir pensando que ese es el escenario natural. En cuanto a Nvidia, la semana que viene presenta resultados y según el analista: “Tiene buen aspecto, de lo mejor dentro del mercado americano, ayer fue capaz de subir casi un 1%”. Explica que se había quedado rezagado con respecto a la evolución que estaban teniendo, “ahora si parece que pueda continuar, dado que el recorrido potencial es superior al de muchos de sus homólogos” e indica que es una buena opción dentro del mercado americano. Para llegar a máximos históricos falta algo más de lo que le falta al Nasdaq 100 o al Sp 500 que es un 5%, así que ese recorrido habría que hacerlo. Indra viene con un movimiento muy vertical, sobre todo tras superar la resistencia que tenía en el entorno del 28, 40, y el analista no ve motivo para cancelar posiciones, está para continuar. “Establecería un stop, no por debajo de 32, que es el origen del último hueco alcista”, explica Roberto Moro, ya que le parece coherente para conservar beneficios.
