The corrective downside appears so far contained near 93.70. If the incipient recovery gathers traction, then there are no significant hurdles until the 2021 high at 94.56 recorded on October 12 ahead of the round level at the 95.00 barrier.
Looking at the broader picture, the constructive stance on the index is seen unchanged above the 200-day SMA at 91.80.
