The strategist of the Eleconomist Investment Strategies portal pointed out that a bearish hole would have to be seen in the opening of a session and the loss of the support of the 4.080 Eurostoxx 50 points.Well, both events occurred on Monday, when the uncertainty extended due to the situation of collapse of the Chinese real estate, and now the European reference index opens a risk of falling from about 5% to at least 3.800 points, being the analogous support zone at IBEX 35 the 7.700/8.000 points, which would imply a correction of about 10%.These levels could be an attractive opportunity to buy bag if the risks are not complicated.

Last week, the Chinese authorities told banks that they did not expect the payment of the interests that expire this week in their loans to Evergrande, according to Bloomberg.Since Evergrande is the second largest real estate promoter (in terms of housing sales in 2020) in China, the world wonders if a default could cause contagion for world risk assets or, at least, for Chinese assets.

The Hang Seng index, by Hong Kong, in which the real estate company is quoted, suffered a 3.3% drop on Monday, with the actions of Evergrande sinking 10.2%.This collapse could be exaggerated by the lack of liquidity that implied that other places such as Japan or South Korea were closed.But sales extended to Europe and Wall Street bags.
