ETF and stock technical analysis: after the vote Microsoft stock jumps 6.68%, Eaton stock falls 9.86% and oil slides; UniCredit stock rises 5.47% in Milan

5 November 2026 AiTrading67 · Trade Desk Observatory Markets

On Wednesday 4 November the market read the result of the US midterm elections, a broad Democratic win including Texas, and turned it into a violent rotation rather than an even rally. ETF technical analysis says it in one line: the consumer discretionary ETF XLY gained 4.26%, the financials ETF XLF 3.51%, the healthcare ETF XLV 3.06%; the energy ETF XLE lost 4.74% and the semiconductor ETF SOXX 3.14%.

Two stories in one. First: with a Democratic Congress the market expects less artificial intelligence spending and tighter rules on data centres, so it bought the companies that use AI, Microsoft stock up 6.68% and Apple stock up 5.31%, and sold the ones that build and power it, Eaton stock down 9.86% and Cipher down 19.95%. Second: WTI crude lost 8.3% on bets that the war with Iran is ending, and money moved from energy and defence into travel.

In Europe the Milan market ran with the banks: the FTSE MIB ETF closed up 2.33%, with UniCredit stock up 5.47% and Intesa Sanpaolo stock up 4.93%; Prysmian stock fell 6.91%, sold along with US data centre suppliers with no news of its own.

US equity volatility collapsed 20% in one session. Our model stays long the S&P 500 and short the Nasdaq 100 and the Italian basket, where the price closed above the weekly level: Friday decides. Today the Bank of England and results from Siemens Healthineers, Buzzi and Pirelli.

INSTRUMENTS
Consumer, financials and healthcare up, energy and chips down

ETF technical analysis: consumer discretionary rises 4.26%, financials 3.51%, healthcare 3.06%; energy falls 4.74%, semiconductors 3.14%

An ETF is an exchange-traded fund that buys a whole basket of stocks in one go: following sector ETFs is the quickest way to see where money is moving. On Wednesday it moved in bulk, out of the sectors tied to oil and data centres and into those that gain from cheaper fuel and lower rates.

In the US XLY, the consumer discretionary ETF, rose 4.26%, XLF, financials, 3.51% closing on the high, XLC, communications, 3.47%, XLP, consumer staples, 3.36%, XLV, healthcare, 3.06%. At the bottom XLE, the energy ETF, down 4.74%, SOXX, semiconductors, down 3.14%, XLI, industrials, down 1.09%; XLK, technology, closed flat and near its low. GLD, the gold ETF, gained 3.68%.

In Europe EXV1, the European banks ETF, up 4.62%, EXHG, autos, up 3.26%, EXV4, healthcare, up 2.66%; only EXH1, oil and gas, fell, down 2.55%.

The global ETF technical analysis, with every basket we follow one by one, is on the dedicated Market Pulse page.

How I read itThe sectors that rose are the ones our model already holds on buy: XLV is up 26.89% since the May signal, XLY up 8.16%, XLF up 5.90%. On energy the weekly candle in progress is turning to sell after a buy that started in July: it is provisional, Friday's close decides, but it is the first opposite signal in months. Technology stays short, up 3.80%, and yesterday's session left it untouched.

COMMODITIES
Oil plunges and the week is turning to sell

Commodities: WTI crude, gold, copper and TTF gas, with the day's, week's and month's change and our model's weekly and monthly signal

WTI crude oil: down 8.29% on the day, down 15.37% on the week, down 15.37% on the month. Weekly on buy since 20 July, 5.05% below the level; monthly on buy since March 2026. The current weekly candle is turning on sell, provisional until the close.

Gold: up 3.31% on the day, up 4.77% on the week, up 4.77% on the month. Weekly on sell since 28 September, 2.58% below the level; monthly on sell since June 2026.

Copper: up 0.42% on the day, down 0.82% on the week, down 0.82% on the month. Weekly on buy since 13 April, 0.49% below the level; monthly on buy since March 2025. The current weekly candle is turning on sell, provisional until the close.

TTF gas: down 3.84% on the day, down 15.26% on the week, down 15.26% on the month. Weekly on buy since 13 July, 0.93% below the level; monthly on buy since January 2026.

How I read itThe story is oil: down 8.3% in the session and more than 15% this week, with the weekly candle in progress turning to sell after a buy that started in July. It is provisional and Friday decides; if confirmed, oil producers and oil services, already below their daily levels, will feel it first, and airlines and cruise lines will gain first. European gas keeps falling, but its weekly signal does not turn. Gold rises with a weaker dollar and lower yields, inside a weekly that stays on sell.

THE VOTE AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Platforms rise, the data centre chain collapses

Microsoft stock up 6.68%, Amazon up 6.12%, Apple up 5.31%, Netflix up 4.68%; Cipher down 19.95%, Vertiv down 12.89%, Eaton down 9.86%, GE Vernova down 9.30%, Micron down 7.00%

The thesis of the day is a single one: a Democratic Congress, and a Texas with a new balance, make data centre permits harder and an AI spending slowdown more likely. The big platforms rose precisely because lighter investment improves cash flow: MicrosoftLong up 6.68%, AmazonShort up 6.12%, AppleLong up 5.31%, overtaking Nvidia in market value, NetflixShort up 4.68%, AlphabetShort up 3.18%. The only giant down sharply was TeslaLong, down 3.34%.

On the other side, the chain that builds and powers data centres: bitcoin miners turned AI hosts, CipherShort down 19.95%, CleanSparkShort down 16.56%, IRENShort down 11.24%; electrical equipment, VertivShort down 12.89% despite a deal with Infineon, Quanta ServicesShort down 11.65%, EatonShort down 9.86%, GE VernovaShort down 9.30%; servers and compute, CoreWeaveShort down 9.90%, DellShort down 8.82%, Super MicroShort down 5.70%. Semiconductor stocks followed with memory in front: MicronShort down 7.00%, MarvellShort down 7.08%, ArmShort down 5.28%, NvidiaShort down 3.17%. The one exception was Riot PlatformsShort, up 9.63%, with a 28 billion dollar data centre lease with Anthropic.

How I read itThe model was already on sell across most of the chain, and the session widened the gains: Cipher up 67.56%, CoreWeave up 40.49%, Vertiv up 34.89%, Marvell up 30.07%, Dell up 17.57%, Eaton up 12.34%. Microsoft stocks are long, up 19.60%, while Eaton stocks stay on the short side. For anyone following ai trading the point is that the market did not sell artificial intelligence as a block: it sold bricks and megawatts and bought the companies that pay the bill, a useful lesson for any trading strategy built on the theme.

OIL, TRAVEL AND DEFENCE
Crude drops 8%, airlines and cruise lines take off

United Airlines stock up 7.98%, Carnival up 7.26%, Delta up 7.16%, Home Depot up 6.53%; Marathon Petroleum down 8.11%, ConocoPhillips down 5.17%, Exxon down 4.62%, Lockheed Martin down 6.88%

Vice President Vance pointed to the war with Iran as the reason for the Republican defeat, and the market concluded that the conflict is nearing its end. Energy was hammered: Marathon PetroleumLong down 8.11%, ConocoPhillipsLong down 5.17% ahead of its results, OccidentalLong down 5.13%, ExxonLong down 4.62%, ChevronLong down 3.69%. Defence paid for the same bets: Lockheed MartinLong down 6.88%, Northrop GrummanLong down 4.53%, RTXLong down 2.64%.

The flip side: cheaper fuel and the prospect of peace are the best mix for those selling tickets and cabins. United AirlinesShort up 7.98%, CarnivalLong up 7.26% closing on the high, DeltaShort up 7.16%, Norwegian Cruise LineLong up 6.77%, Royal CaribbeanLong up 6.38%, and with them Home DepotLong up 6.53%.

How I read itOn energy the model has been long since July, and the gains remain: Marathon Petroleum up 60.36%, Chevron up 15.79%, Exxon up 7.86%. But on Marathon, Exxon and ConocoPhillips the weekly candle in progress is turning to sell: Friday will tell whether yesterday was a jolt or the start of a change.

DuolingoShort was the best stock in our universe, up 25.99% in the second session after results, with a string of raised price targets.

INDICES
Europe rises more than 2%, Milan closes above the short's level

European indices: the FTSE MIB ETF rises 2.33%, the DAX ETF 2.29%, the CAC 40 ETF 2.17%, the FTSE 100 ETF 1.76%

On Wednesday the FTSE MIB ETFShort gained 2.33%, the DAXShort ETF 2.29% closing near the high, the CAC 40Short ETF 2.17% and the FTSE 100Long ETF 1.76%. 73% of DAX companies are above their 200-day average, against 34% of the whole German market: the rally rests on the big names.

On the Italian basket the model's short is up 1.91%, on sell since 31 August, but the price closed 0.84% above the weekly level. On the DAX and the CAC 40, short, the weekly candle in progress is turning to buy.

How I read itThe model's rule judges the week's average of high, low and close, not the session: for the Italian basket that average is still just below the level, and with today's high and low a Friday close a little above 52.7 is needed to turn the weekly. For the short, with every profit-taking window already taken, this is the deciding week; for the German and French indices the change is closer.

Bank of England today, US payrolls on Friday

This week's economic calendar: Bank of England on Thursday 5 November, US payrolls and consumer sentiment on Friday 6, US inflation on Tuesday 10

The macro events of the coming days that can move the indices, in Central European time. Today the Bank of England; Friday US payrolls and consumer sentiment; next Tuesday US inflation.

Thursday 5 November

13:00 · United Kingdom · Bank of England: rate decision high impact

Friday 6 November

14:30 · United States · October payrolls and unemployment high impact

16:00 · United States · University of Michigan consumer sentiment, preliminary high impact

Further ahead, the central banks

Wednesday 18 November · Fed: minutes of the October meeting

Times are Central European. The calendar can change: central bank dates are those published by the banks themselves.

How I read itA macro release does not change the weekly signal, it tests it. After the vote, Friday's payrolls come on the same day as the candle that decides the Italian short and the change on oil producers.

UNITED STATES
SPY breaks above the waiting zone and saves the long, QQQ re-enters the zone

SPY and QQQ technical analysis, the S&P 500 ETF and the Nasdaq 100 ETF: SPY rises 1.65% and is back above the long's level, QQQ 0.97%

SPYLong, the S&P 500 ETF, gained 1.65%, 1.89% below its all-time high. The daily turned back to buy and the week's average of high, low and close rose back above the Reversal Point that judges the long born in April: the long is up 12.86%, with the price 0.99% above the level.

QQQShort, the Nasdaq 100 ETF, rose 0.97%, 9.3% below its record, held back by semiconductors, and moved back inside the waiting zone of the latest analysis. The model's short is up 2.51%, 4.61% below the weekly level. 66% of S&P 500 companies are above their 200-day average, against 43% of the US stocks we follow.

How I read itThe S&P 500 did almost twice the Nasdaq 100 because the rally was in financials, consumer and healthcare, which weigh more in the broad index, while the Nasdaq carries the weight of chips. On SPY the three profit-taking windows were crossed long ago and the trade is decided by the weekly Reversal Point: in swing trading, and in risk management for those already in, yesterday's session put it back on safe ground.

The desk's take

The big picture: the US vote rotation and falling oil

On Wednesday the market read the Democratic win as less artificial intelligence spending and a near end to the war with Iran: platforms, consumer, financials and healthcare up; the data centre chain, energy and defence down. Europe rose more than 2% with the banks, Milan with UniCredit and Intesa. Our model is long the S&P 500, back on safe ground, and short the Nasdaq 100 and the Italian basket, where Friday decides. Oil is turning to sell on the weekly.

What you find here. If you are trying to understand how to manage risk in trading, with stops, break-even stops, trailing and the declaration of stops that have been taken out, or how to read chart patterns (double bottoms, Bollinger bands, the Ichimoku cloud, price action trading), this is the desk's trading journal: published every morning before the US premarket, with our model's position on every instrument mentioned.
