1 21 DAILY INVESTMENT UPDATE United States Europe Hong Kong US stocks were pushed lower by weak earnings reports from index heavyweights such as Verizon which fell 2.3%. The Dow Jones fell 0.32%, the S&P 500 lost 0.44% and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.49%. European shares rose on Thursday to their highest level in two weeks, helped by a weakness in the euro and further boosted by a rally in the bank sector stocks. The pan- European STOXX 600 index ended up 0.2%. Chinese stocks were down at midday on Friday, as an early morning rally fizzled out with continued yuan weakness intensifying selling pressure. The Hong Kong exchange did not open on Friday morning, as trading was suspended due to the severe Typhoon Haima. While the Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.4%. Local Asian stock exchanges trading ahead of the JSE s opening on Friday morning were generally red. The all share could follow this trend after closing up 0.16% yesterday. Japan Japan's Nikkei edged down in choppy trade on Friday, snapping a five-day winning streak while investors waited for major Japanese companies to report their mid-year results next week. The Nikkei ended 0.3% lower. Rand Precious Metals Oil The rand was weaker against major global currencies after the JSE s close, as the European Central Bank (ECB) held its benchmark refinancing rate unchanged. ECB president Mario Draghi said at a press conference that the bank s bond purchasing programme could be extended beyond March 2017 when it was due to expire, though he did not give a clear commitment. At 17h50, the rand was at R13.91 to the dollar from Thursday s R Gold edged down on Friday as the dollar strengthened, but was on track for its first weekly gain in four weeks on steady physical buying from China and exchange-traded funds. Spot gold was down 0.3% at $ an ounce. Oil prices were stable on Friday, weighed down by a stronger dollar but supported by signs fuel markets are balancing after two years of oversupply. International Brent crude oil futures were up 3c at $51.41 a barrel.
