The Federal Reserve (Fed) doves got a big energy boost yesterday by a slightly lower-than-expected inflation report. The US stocks and bonds rallied, and the US dollar took a severe hit. Good news came from Britain this morning, as well. Inflation in the UK fell more than penciled in by analysts.
All in all, there is growing evidence that the major central banks’ efforts are bearing fruit.
Moving forward, yesterday’s rush to open fresh long US Treasury positions was likely intensified by a hurry to cover short positions. We shall see a correction in the US yields, as the Fed...

Investors are on the edge of their seats, waiting for the latest scoop on US inflation data to take a fresh direction in both stock and bond markets. According to the consensus of analysts’ estimates on a Bloomberg survey, the US inflation may have slowed to 3.3% last month, from 3.7% printed a month earlier. Core inflation is seen unchanged at 4.1%. An uptick in health insurance costs could give a slight boost to October inflation figures, while the latest US consumer survey, released last Friday, showed that the US consumers expect inflation to climb at an annual rate of...

What everyone – most investors, every household and every politician want to see and to sense right now is the end of the global monetary policy tightening cycle, and the beginning of the end starts mostly with the Federal Reserve (Fed). And the uncertainty regarding when the Fed will be done hiking the rates is killing everyone, but even the Fed itself doesn’t know when tightening will/should end. It will depend on US politics and the crucial economic data, like inflation, jobs, and growth figures.
This week, we will plunge back into the US political saga, as the government short-term...

Bad. Yesterday’s 30-year treasury auction in the US was bad. Then, the Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell’s speech at an IMF event was hawkish. Powell repeated that the FOMC will move ‘carefully’ and that the Fed won’t hesitate to raise the interest rates again, if needed. The bonds sold off, the US yields spiked higher.
Of course, the sudden jump in US yields hit appetite in US stocks yesterday. The S&P500 fell 0.80%, and Nasdaq fell 0.82%. The US bond auction brought along a lot of volatility, questions, and uncertainty.
The US dollar jumped to its 50-DMA as a...

The US 10-year yield plunged below the 4.5% mark yesterday, even after a 40-billion-dollar sale of US 10-year papers saw lower-than-expected demand and resulted in a slightly higher-than-anticipated yield of 4.519%. Today, all eyes are on the $24 billion worth of US 30-year bond auction. The US 30-year bond yield plunged to 4.60% yesterday, after rising to 5.17% last month.
That’s disquieting; the US 10-year yield has now fallen more than 50bp in less than 2 weeks. Yes, a part of it is a correction of the accelerated rise that we observed starting from September. But that rise partly explains...

Portuguese markets were hit yesterday by the resignation of the country’s PM following an investigation into possible crimes of corruption involving lithium and hydrogen projects. The Portuguese PSI 20 fell more than 2.50% on political jitters and uncertainty. But the scandal didn’t resonate much in the rest of the European indices – which were little changed yesterday. The EURUSD slipped below the 1.07 mark, the US dollar extended its gains for a second day but the US yields continued to fall despite cautiously hawkish comments from Fed members.
The S&P500 is above its 50-DMA for the 3rd day and the...

The US bond yields rebounded, and the equity rally slowed on Monday. The chatter of weak demand and profit warnings are not great for equities, but the worst news would be sticky inflation despite slowing growth and a persistently long period of high interest rates. For now, the Federal Reserve (Fed) is perceived as being ‘done’ with interest rate hikes.
But despite a series of no rate hike news that we received over the past few weeks from major central banks including the Fed, the European Centra Bank (ECB) and the Bank of England (BoE), the Reserve Bank of Australia...

The excellent combo of lower-than-expected US NFP, weaker-than-expected wages growth and the unemployment rate at an almost two-year high sent another wave of optimism to the financial markets on Friday that the Federal Reserve (Fed) is done hiking the interest rates. US yields further fell and US equities roared after three months of struggle.
In the FX, the US dollar slid the most since July and sank below its 50-DMA, triggering a beautiful rally in major pairs. The EURUSD flirted with 1.0750, Cable rallied to 1.2390, the USDJPY fell below the 150 mark, and the AUDUSD jumped to its 100-DMA...
