The Q4 GDP final reading confirmed economy contracted 0.1% over quarter in the fourth quarter of 2019, following a 0.3% growth in the previous three months. Retail sales growth declined to 2.1% over year in January after 2.5% increase in previous month. However, the private sector activities expansion speeded up a bit: final reading of Markit\u2019s composite PMI was revised up to 52 in February after 51.1 reading for previous month. At the same time manufacturing sector recorded a decline in activities, the first contraction in seven months due to decline in new orders attributed to discontinuation of Boeing 737 Max production and coronavirus disruptions. The coronavirus impact will likely last at least a few weeks as the outbreak was designated a global pandemic on Wednesday and the US restricted travel from Europe for 30 days. Deteriorating economic data are bearish for FR40.<\/p>\n<table class=\"analys_tbl\" style=\"padding: 5px 0; border: 1px solid #698da6; border-collapse: collapse;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" align=\"center\">\n<thead id=\"datapart\">\n<tr>\n<th>Indicator<\/th>\n<th>VALUE<\/th>\n<th>Signal<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">RSI<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"indicator-signal\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Neutral<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">MACD<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"indicator-signal\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Sell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Donchian Channel<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"indicator-signal\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Sell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">MA(200)<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"indicator-signal\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Sell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Fractals<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"indicator-signal\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Sell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Parabolic SAR<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"indicator-signal\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\">Sell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"emailSummary\">Summary of technical analysis<\/h2>\n<table class=\"recommendation\" style=\"padding: 5px 0; border: 1px solid #698da6; border-collapse: collapse;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Order<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">Sell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Buy stop<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">Below 3911.29<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Stop loss<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #698da6; padding: 5px;\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">Above 4956.83<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Market Analysis provided by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ifcmarkets.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IFCMarkets<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By IFCMarkets Weak French data bearish for FR40 French economic data in the last couple of weeks were mixed.
