INSTAT A European Asia–Asia-Pacific Markets Daily Pulse Report, February 9, 2026
Divergent Momentum: Europe’s Cyclical Surge Led by Spain; Japan Drives Asia’s Risk-On Rally
Executive Summary:
This report provides a daily pulse on European and Asia-Pacific equity markets, highlighting divergent regional performance driven by sector rotation, capital flows, and short-term momentum.
Europe exhibits a bifurcated landscape. Spain leads as strongly bullish (INSTAT 79.53), supported by broad-based strength across financials, utilities, and industrials. Italy and the Nordics follow with moderately bullish momentum. Germany, the UK, Netherlands, Poland, and Israel show selective, tactical strength amid mixed weekly returns. France and Switzerland lag in neutral territory, displaying choppy action and conflicting signals.
Leadership is concentrated in pro-cyclical sectors: Materials, Industrials, Financials, and select Technology names (notably in Israel and Poland). Deep laggards are found in Automotive (e.g., Stellantis, Porsche), Healthcare, Media/Information Services, and Consumer Defensives.
Asia-Pacific is dominated by Japan’s explosive rally (INSTAT 67.09), with strong gains across trading houses, industrials, financials, and consumer sectors. South Korea, India, and Singapore also show moderately bullish momentum, driven by semiconductors, financials, and industrial names. China, Taiwan, Tiger Cubs, and Australia remain in neutral/mixed territory, facing sector dispersion, tech weakness, and commodity pressures.
Key themes include rotation into cyclical and financial sectors in outperforming regions, while defensive and growth-sensitive sectors face distribution. Extended rallies in leaders (e.g., Japanese trading houses, Spanish industrials) warrant monitoring for near-term mean reversion, while deeply oversold laggards (e.g., European autos, Chinese tech) may present contrarian inflection opportunities.
Analysis of European In Country Capital Flows
Overview
European markets present a bifurcated picture on a short term basis, with Spain leading as the standout performer while France and Switzerland lag in neutral territory. Spain tops the regional INSTAT rankings at 79.53, exhibiting Strongly Bullish characteristics with positive 1D returns of 1.15% and 1W gains of 2.49%, supported by elevated AT and ST readings above 20 and robust IN metrics. This week’s strength extends a constructive 1M backdrop that continues to attract capital flows across Spanish financials, utilities, and industrials. Italy and the Nordic region follow closely behind with mean INSTAT readings in the mid-to-high 50s, displaying Moderately Bullish postures where 1D and 1W momentum remains positive and aligned with improving breadth metrics.
Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Israel, and the UK cluster in the Moderately Bullish category with mean INSTAT levels ranging from 35 to 46. These markets show selective strength characterized by positive 1D returns but mixed 1W behavior, reflecting tactical rotation and stock-specific dispersion rather than broad-based buying. The UK in particular exhibits heightened volatility, with a mean 1W decline of 0.12% masking sharp divergence between cyclical leaders in materials and deep laggards in media, information services, and consumer discretionary. Poland and Israel demonstrate robust 1D gains exceeding 1% and 2% respectively, yet face near term headwinds on the 1W timeframe, suggesting intraday buying that has yet to establish weekly follow-through against their positive 1M trend backdrops.
France and Switzerland sit at the bottom of the European hierarchy with mean INSTAT readings barely above 27, classified as Neutral/Mixed. French equities registered marginal 1D gains of 0.81% but negligible 1W momentum of just 0.21%, with pronounced weakness in luxury goods, automotive, and technology services offsetting scattered strength in infrastructure and utilities. Switzerland faces similar choppiness with minimal 1D traction of 0.20% and modest 1W gains of 0.91%, hampered by distribution in healthcare and defensive consumer names. Both markets exhibit conflicting signals where AT/ST alignment has deteriorated relative to IN, pointing to tentative positioning and potential inflection risk against what had been stable 1M backdrops.
The European landscape on a 1D-1W basis favors pro-cyclical leadership concentrated in financials, materials, energy, and select industrials, while defensives including healthcare, staples, and media face persistent selling pressure. This pattern suggests ongoing risk-on behavior at the country level within Spain, Italy, and the Nordics, contrasted with repair or consolidation phases in France, Switzerland, and portions of the UK where prior 1M rallies are giving way to near term mean reversion or sector rotation.
Leaders and Laggards by Character
Clear Leaders (Pro-Cyclical Dominance):
Materials/Industrials: Strong 1D/1W buying in European mining, metals, and industrial machinery.

Analysis of Asian In Country Capital Flows
Overview
Asian and Asia-Pacific markets exhibit pronounced regional dispersion on a 1D-1W basis, with Japan emerging as the clear leader while China, Taiwan, Tiger Cubs, and Australia struggle in neutral territory. Japan dominates the regional INSTAT rankings at 67.09, classified as Moderately Bullish with exceptional 1D returns of 3.32% and explosive 1W gains of 8.99%, reflecting broad-based accumulation across financials, trading houses, industrials, and consumer discretionary. This week’s surge extends a positive 1M backdrop and represents the most powerful short term momentum in the entire Asian complex, with AT/ST both at 25 and IN metrics elevated at 50, indicating maximum alignment of trend, positioning, and breadth.
Singapore, South Korea, and India cluster in the Moderately Bullish category with mean INSTAT levels ranging from 46 to 50. Singapore posts the highest INSTAT at 50.00 with solid 1D gains of 1.10% and 1W returns of 1.89%, displaying steady accumulation in financials and conglomerates without the volatility seen elsewhere. South Korea shows impressive 1D strength of 2.72% and robust 1W momentum of 4.89% on INSTAT 46.77, driven by aggressive buying in financials and semiconductors that extends a constructive 1M trend. India registers 1D gains of 1.00% and strong 1W returns of 4.05% on INSTAT 46.03, with leadership concentrated in state-owned banks, chemicals, and select industrials emerging from prior consolidation phases.
Hong Kong occupies an intermediate position with INSTAT 33.27 and Moderately Bullish classification, posting 1D gains of 1.31% and 1W returns of 1.68%, yet exhibiting significant stock-level dispersion between financials and energy leaders versus embattled technology and telecom laggards. Australia, Taiwan, Tiger Cubs, and China all fall into Neutral/Mixed territory with INSTAT readings between 9 and 29. Australia shows choppy 1D strength of 1.46% offset by negligible 1W gains of 0.09%, reflecting intraday volatility without weekly follow-through. Taiwan and Tiger Cubs post minimal short term traction on both 1D and 1W timeframes despite scattered pockets of strength in financials. China languishes at the bottom with INSTAT of just 8.93, exhibiting weak 1D gains of 0.56% and modest 1W returns of 1.98% that mask severe sector-level divergence between isolated financial and energy leaders and widespread distribution across consumer, technology, and telecommunications.
The Asian landscape on a 1D-1W basis favors Japan’s pro-cyclical explosion, South Korea’s semiconductor and financial rally, and India’s stock-specific strength in banks and chemicals, while China faces persistent defensive rotation and the Southeast Asian Tiger Cubs grapple with commodity sector weakness offsetting isolated financial resilience. This pattern suggests capital is flowing toward Northeast Asian cyclicals and away from Chinese growth names and ASEAN resources on a short term basis.
