We Are in V-Shaped Recovery, Stay in Stocks: Strategist
By: Lisa Auret Assistant Web Producer, CNBC
The recovery won't be bolstered by the consumer, like in previous recessions. Instead demand will come from a build-up of low inventories and large companies' exposure to emerging market growth, Edith Thouin, vice president of ABN Amro Private Banking said Monday."We do think we are in a V-shaped recovery and equities are the place to be," she said, adding that investors should still shift their focus into a more diversified portfolio.She told CNBC investors should bet on industrial and base material companies, as well as international companies with good exposure to China, South America and other emerging market countries.

Euro Weakness Versus Pound Set to Intensify: Technical Analysis
(Bloomberg) -- The euro’s decline against the pound may accelerate, according to at least four technical indicators. The moving average convergence/divergence, or MACD, which signals directional trends for a security, gave a so-called sell signal for the euro on Jan. 13. Parabolic systems, used by traders to track the strength of a trend, switched to a sell a day later. The directional movement indicator, or DMI, also indicated the trend for the common European currency is lower.The euro is weakening after European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet said on Jan. 14 that the region’s economic outlook remains uncertain and said policy makers won’t rescue Greece as the country struggles to reduce its budget deficit. The pound gained versus the single currency last week on speculation the Bank of England will allow its bond-buying program to expire as the recovery takes hold.

(Bloomberg) -- Germany’s benchmark DAX Index may fall to 5,840 in a “continued consolidation move,” according to a technical analyst at DZ Bank AG who looks at Fibonacci retracements to predict market movements. “The significant upward momentum of the short-term trend has now been lost, at least from a quantitative point of view,” after the measure dropped below the 38.2 percent Fibonacci retracement level at 5,910, DZ Bank’s Dirk Oppermann wrote in a report to clients today. “The continued consolidation move once again confirms the currently unfavorable cyclical environment on the international stock markets.”

Oil Prices to Fall This Week: CNBC Survey
By: Sri Jegarajah Singapore Reporter
CNBC's weekly poll of analysts forecasts oil to continue to fall this week as weak fundamentals (supply overhang and anemic demand) weigh on the market.Out of 12 analysts, nine (or 75 percent) expect prices to fall this week, three said they would be largely unchanged and none expected prices to rise.
Oil fell nearly 6 percent last week and some respondents see a test of $76/bbl, possibly $74 this week. China monetary tightening and a slow start to the U.S. earnings season may also drag. But investor buying on the dips -- as the the global economic recovery gains traction-- may limit any move lower.
