International Chart Outlook

Zurich, 19th January 2018

In November and December 2017, the Nasdaq Nasdaq Biotechnology Index


Biotechnology Index broke below the 200-day moving 3600
average but managed to recover quickly in both cases. 3550
3500
However, in mid-December, the index managed to surpass 3450
3400
the 55-day moving average and is currently heading toward 3350
3300

the previous highs at around 3600. Given the unfolding top 3250
3200

in the short-term momentum (shaded oscillator in the lower 55-day average


3150
3100

half of the chart), a short-term consolidation or even a minor


3050
3000

correction seems likely. But both the medium-term


2950
200-day average 2900
2850
momentum (blue oscillator) and the 55-day moving average 1000
are turning to the upside and signal that despite the potential
short-term weakness, the medium-term technical picture 500

remains promising. Hence, a break above the previous highs 0


would trigger a clear technical signal that further strength can
be expected. On the other hand, only a clear break below the -500

200-day moving average would endanger the intact larger

uptrend. Resistances are at 3600, 3840 and 4025. Supports Source: Reuters, MetaStock, Credit Suisse
can be found at 3435, 3280 and 3165.

Following the strong upmove in December, the Philadelphia Philadelphia Gold/Silver Index
Gold/Silver Index entered a minor correction but managed
to hold above the moving averages. At the moment, the
95
200-day average
index is challenging the resistance line connecting the highs 90

from February and September 2017 but the short-term


momentum (shaded oscillator in the lower half of the chart) 85

remains falling. This indicates that more time is needed for a 55-day average 80
sustainable breakout. However, the medium-term
momentum (blue oscillator) started a bottoming process in 75

December and is still rising. This signals that with the next 100
short-term momentum bottom, which we expect within the 50
next few days, a sustainable breakout becomes likely. Such
55-day average
a break above the resistance line at around 90 would signal 200-day average
-50
the start of a new medium-term uptrend. The next -100
resistances are at 93.5 and 97.4. Support can be found at x10
-150

around 88, 84.5/84 and 82.2. Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 2018 Feb

Risk warning
Every investment involves risk, especially with regard to fluctuations in value and return. If an investment is denominated in a currency other than your
base currency, changes in the rate of exchange may have an adverse effect on value, price or income.

For a discussion of the risks of investing in the securities mentioned in this document, please refer to the following Internet link:
https://research.credit-suisse.com/riskdisclosure

This document may include information on investments that involve special risks. You should seek the advice of your independent financial advisor prior
to taking any investment decisions based on this document or for any necessary explanation of its contents. Further information is also available in the
information brochure “Special Risks in Securities Trading” available from the Swiss Bankers Association.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Performance can be affected by commissions, fees or other charges as well
as exchange rate fluctuations.

Financial market risks


Historical returns and financial market scenarios are no guarantee of future performance. The price and value of investments mentioned and any income
that might accrue could fall or rise or fluctuate. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. If an investment is denominated in a currency
other than your base currency, changes in the rate of exchange may have an adverse effect on value, price or income. You should consult with such
advisor(s) as you consider necessary to assist you in making these determinations.

Investments may have no public market or only a restricted secondary market. Where a secondary market exists, it is not possible to predict the price at
which investments will trade in the market or whether such market will be liquid or illiquid.

Emerging markets
Where this document relates to emerging markets, you should be aware that there are uncertainties and risks associated with investments and
transactions in various types of investments of, or related or linked to, issuers and obligors incorporated, based or principally engaged in business in
emerging markets countries. Investments related to emerging markets countries may be considered speculative, and their prices will be much more
volatile than those in the more developed countries of the world. Investments in emerging markets investments should be made only by sophisticated
investors or experienced professionals who have independent knowledge of the relevant markets, are able to consider and weigh the various risks
presented by such investments, and have the financial resources necessary to bear the substantial risk of loss of investment in such investments. It is
your responsibility to manage the risks which arise as a result of investing in emerging markets investments and the allocation of assets in your portfolio.
You should seek advice from your own advisers with regard to the various risks and factors to be considered when investing in an emerging markets
investment.

Alternative investments
Hedge funds are not subject to the numerous investor protection regulations that apply to regulated authorized collective investments and hedge fund
managers are largely unregulated. Hedge funds are not limited to any particular investment discipline or trading strategy, and seek to profit in all kinds of
markets by using leverage, derivatives, and complex speculative investment strategies that may increase the risk of investment loss.

Commodity transactions carry a high degree of risk and may not be suitable for many private investors. The extent of loss due to market movements can
be substantial or even result in a total loss.

Investors in real estate are exposed to liquidity, foreign currency and other risks, including cyclical risk, rental and local market risk as well as
environmental risk, and changes to the legal situation.

Interest rate and credit risks


The retention of value of a bond is dependent on the creditworthiness of the Issuer and/or Guarantor (as applicable), which may change over the term of
the bond. In the event of default by the Issuer and/or Guarantor of the bond, the bond or any income derived from it is not guaranteed and you may get
back none of, or less than, what was originally invested.

Volatility
Volatility is a measure for variation of price of a financial instrument. High volatility investments may experience sudden and large falls in their value
causing losses when that investment is realized.
