US 30 index forecast: the index reaches a new all-time high
The US 30 index hit a new all-time high and then began to correct. The US 30 forecast for today is positive.
US 30 forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: preliminary US manufacturing PMI came in at 55.3 in May
Market impact: the data is positive for the stock market
Fundamental analysis
The US manufacturing PMI was significantly better than expected, coming in at 55.3, above the forecast of 53.8 and the previous reading of 54.5. This indicates an acceleration in business activity in the industry and confirms that the US manufacturing sector remains in an expansion phase, since readings above 50.0 are typically interpreted as growth.
This data could be supportive for the US 30 index, as large industrial, financial, consumer, and infrastructure companies account for a significant proportion of its composition.

DE 40 forecast: the index continues trading in a sideways trend
The DE 40 stock index’s uptrend has shifted into a sideways range, although the upward bias remains. The DE 40 forecast for today is positive.
DE 40 forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: Germany’s Unemployment Rate (preliminary) for May came in at 6.3%
Market impact: the data creates a positive backdrop for the German stock market
Fundamental analysis
Germany’s unemployment rate declining to 6.3% versus both the forecast and the prior reading of 6.4% may have a moderately positive impact on the DE 40 index. For the market, this signals that the German labor market is holding up better than expected despite pressure from high interest rates, a weak industrial cycle, and business caution around new investments.
For the DE 40 index, this news could provide some support—especially if investors interpret it as confirmation that the German economy is stabilizing. However, the effect will most likely be limited because the unemployment rate alone does not fully change the broader picture.

US 500 forecast: the index hits a new all-time high
News about a possible end to the conflict between the US and Iran pushed the US 500 index higher. The US 500 forecast for today is positive.
US 500 forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: US preliminary manufacturing PMI came in at 55.3 in May
Market impact: this data is moderately positive for the US stock market
Fundamental analysis
The release of quarterly US GDP data, showing actual growth of 1.6% versus the forecast of 2.0%, could be perceived by the market as a moderately negative signal for the US 500 index. The main reason is that the US economy is growing more slowly than expected, which reduces investor confidence in the sustainability of corporate earnings.
For the US 500 index, the effect could be mixed. On the one hand, weaker-than-expected GDP growth indicates an economic slowdown, which typically pressures shares of companies sensitive to the business cycle.

US 30 index forecast: growth momentum has weakened, but the uptrend remains
The US 30 index is trading near its all-time high, but the likelihood of a downward correction is increasing. The US 30 forecast for today is positive.
US 30 forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: US GDP rose by 1.6% year-over-year in Q1 2026
Market impact: the data is negative for the stock market
Fundamental analysis
US quarterly GDP data came in below expectations, showing actual growth of 1.6%, below the forecast of 2.0% but up from the previous 0.5%. For the US 30 index, this is a mixed signal, but in the short term, it is more likely to have a moderately negative effect.
For the US 30 index, which includes major US industrial, financial, consumer, and technology companies, softer GDP could reduce appetite for more cyclical stocks.

The US Tech index reached a new all-time high – unusually, the trend is only gaining momentum. The US Tech forecast for next week is positive.
US Tech forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: US services PMI came in at 50.7 in May
Market impact: the current data is negative for the technology sector
Fundamental analysis
The release of the US services PMI at 50.7, below the forecast of 50.9 and the previous reading of 50.9, indicates slightly weaker momentum than the market expected. The reading is still above 50.0, meaning the services sector continues to expand, but the pace of growth is slowing.
Such data could have a dual impact on the US Tech index. On the one hand, a weaker PMI reduces confidence in the sustainability of economic growth, which could increase caution towards technology companies, particularly those whose valuations are already at high levels.

The GBPUSD pair returned to 1.3381, with broader prospects for the pound remaining negative.
GBPUSD forecast: key takeaways
The GBPUSD pair recouped some of its losses, but its further trend remains uncertain
Tension in the oil market and US dollar strength are preventing a full-fledged rebound
GBPUSD forecast for 10 June 2026: 1.3300 or 1.3485
Fundamental analysis
The GBPUSD rate recovered to 1.3381 after falling to a two-month low shortly before. The primary reason for the previous drop was the strengthening of the US dollar, which is supported by growing expectations of a Federal Reserve rate hike and demand for safe-haven assets amid the escalating conflict in the Middle East.
Rising oil prices are putting additional pressure on the British currency. Following new Israeli strikes on targets in Iran, Brent prices rose by more than 5%, fuelling concerns about inflation and possible disruptions in global supply chains. This factor is especially sensitive for the UK due to its heavy dependence on energy imports.
