$E-mini S&P 500 Futures(DEC4) (ESmain.US)$ (4 Hour Chart) -[BEARISH ↘ *]We turn bearish as price is nearing 5830 resistance level. As long as price holds below 5830 resistance level, we expect price to push to resistance-turned-support level at 5720. Technical indicators have yet to indicate a bullish scenario.
Alternatively: A 4 hour candlestick closing below 5720 support level could open a droptonext support at 5665.

We turn neutral as price is currently hovering between 101.155 resistance level and 100.570 support level. A 4 hour candlestick closing below 100.570 support level would open next drop towards 100.025 support. Technical indicators are leaning towards a bearish momentum.

Summary - What Is Happening In The Markets
US markets closed higher last night, with $E-mini S&P 500 Futures(DEC4) (ESmain.US)$ and $E-mini NASDAQ 100 Futures(DEC4) (NQmain.US)$ climbing higher by 1.73% and 2.59% respectively. This comes after outperforming initial jobless claims and Philaelphia Fed Manufacturing data last night. The tech sector advanced the most. Notable stocks are $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ , $Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$ and $Salesforce (CRM.US)$ which pushed higher by 7.36%, 5.70% and 5.37% respectively. There are no major announcements tonight, and traders are able to digest the substantial amount of economic data released over the past 2 days.
Asian markets opened mixed today, with $Nikkei 225 (.N225.JP)$ pushed highest the most by 2.03%. $Tokyo Electron (8035.JP)$ , $Murata Manufacturing (6981.JP)$ and $Fanuc (6954.JP)$ pushed the most by 5.82%, 4.95% and 4.55%. Traders should look out for CPI data and BoJ press conference later. $HSI Futures(NOV4) (HSImain.HK)$ edged higher by 0.58%, with strength observed from the consumer non-durable sector. There is risk-on sentiment among traders after the rate cut by the Fed to allow for easing of monetary conditions and policies without strengthening the CNY. $FTSE Singapore Straits Time Index (.STI.SG)$ dipped by 0.23%, with the REITs retreating lower.
