Clouds gather for FTSE 100

The FTSE's closing last week beneath its 200-week exponential moving average re-enforced the negative picture. Ominously, the last time it did this during a significant downtrend was in March 2001. Even if we manage a bounce at some point soon, we continue to expect a drop to 5300 and perhaps 4900.
