Javier Alfayate, gestor de Fondos, analiza los índices y valores bursátiles y ofrece sus preferencias a la hora de invertir. Según Alfayate, "lo que manda es el precio", y actualmente los principales índices muestran señales positivas. Destaca que tanto el Ibex como el DAX “se están saliendo”, mientras que en Estados Unidos el Nasdaq lleva semanas marcando máximos. A pesar de que el verano suele traer volatilidad, el experto considera que los índices apuntan a una continuidad en la tendencia alcista. ¿En qué invertimos? Alfayate subraya que la elección depende del perfil del inversor. Para quienes tienen un perfil más agresivo, recomienda apostar por un ETF del Nasdaq, teniendo en cuenta también el impacto de la divisa. En cambio, para quienes buscan opciones más tranquilas, sugiere el S&P 500 o el Eurostoxx. Añade que “sectores como la banca y los seguros están funcionando bien”.

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.
US President Trump said he just signed a deal with China on Wednesday; it was later clarified that the US and China have agreed to an additional understanding to implement the Geneva agreement.US Commerce Secretary Lutnick stated that several deals will be announced in the coming week, with the Europe deal expected at the end.Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi said Tehran is assessing whether diplomacy with the US is in its interest, adding that there is currently no understanding for renewed talks with the US.APAC stocks traded mostly firmer for a bulk of the session following gains on Wall Street, before waning off best levels to trade mixed.European equity futures are indicative of a firmer open - catching up to some of the late Wall Street gains - with the Euro Stoxx 50 future +0.5% after cash closed -0.2% on Thursday.Looking ahead, highlights include French CPI, Spanish HICP, Retail Sales, EZ Business Climate, Italian Industrial Sales, US PCE, UoM Survey Final, Fed's Williams, Hammack; ECB's Cipollone, and Supply from Italy.

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”.

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.
