Hello everyone, this is Okachan-man. The two points of focus for this week are: first COVID-19, second important indicators and statements from key figures.
First, COVID-19 (novel coronavirus). I think this remains a key focus this week as well. In particular, with the spread of infections, cases of tertiary infections have finally appeared in Japan. People who did not travel to China, or who did not have close contact with someone who traveled to China, and whose source of infection is unknown—these are tertiary infections. As these people increase, there is a real risk of domestic infection spreading more seriously. It could resemble the situation in China, so I’m keeping an eye on this. Also, there have been deaths reported last week, so I’m watching whether severe cases and deaths will increase. If this spreads in Japan, travel bans and parts shortages could arise, so I’m paying attention to that area.
This week, another key point is important indicators and statements from key figures. Almost every day besides Monday there are important indicators. There are many statements from key figures scheduled through the weekend. Additionally, on Monday and Tuesday there will be finance ministers’ meetings in Europe, the EU, and the eurozone. On the weekend, there is also a meeting of the G20 finance ministers and central bank chiefs, so this area is worth watching. Details of schedules and finer plans are written on the blog as well, so if you’d like, please take a look at the blog.
This week, as mentioned, there are many trading materials besides Monday, so I think it will be a week that’s easy to trade. I will do my best to generate profits steadily.
With that, let’s do our best this week as well. This was Okachan-man.
