Soft Chinese figures hit energy, metals and European luxury stocks yesterday, while wheat futures jumped as Russia called off the grain deal in Black Sea.
US stocks, however, extended rally and the US 2-year yield consolidated around 4.70% as investors started betting on when the Fed would cut the rates in the coming months.
Today, the Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Lockheed Martin will be releasing their quarterly earnings. While BoFA and Morgan Stanley’s investment branches may have taken a hit, investors will be looking at how well these banks benefited from rising rates. Lockheed Martin on the other...

The Chinese economy grew slower-than-expected in Q2. The kneejerk reaction in markets was unenthusiastic. American crude extended retreat below the $75pb, after hitting and bouncing lower from the 200-DMA, that stands near $77pb last week. The rejection was expected, and the selloff could deepen toward the 100-DMA, near $73.50 level. Copper futures are also down this morning and testing the 100-DMA following a 7% rebound since the start of the month. Iron ore futures remain under pressure, and the Aussie is down nearly 1.30% against the US dollar, after forming a double top near the 69 cents level last week,...

We are having a great week in terms of US inflation news. After Wednesday’s data showed that the US headline inflation slowed to 3%, and core inflation fell to 4.8% - both lower than what analysts had penciled in, yesterday’s producer price inflation data also came in lower than expected.
As a result, the US yields further dived and the US dollar index slipped below the 100 mark. The S&P500 extended gains yesterday, and closed the session above the 4500 mark for the first time since April 2022, while Nasdaq 100 rallied another 1.73%. Amazon jumped to a 10-month high...

Headline US inflation eased to 3&, and core inflation eased more than expected to 4.8%. That’s still more than twice the Fed’s 2% policy target, the latest set of data is good news for breaking the Fed hawks back amid mounting tension over the past few weeks.
There hasn’t been much change in the expectation of another 25bp hike at the Fed’s next policy meeting, which is now given a more than 90% chance, but the expectation for a September hike fell, the US yields dropped and the dollar fell.
The EURUSD spiked to 1.1150, Cable advanced past the 1.30...

With the ETF news Bitcoin might be gearing up for 120'000 USD soon, but what could bring it there? And why does it need scaling solutions?

The US dollar extended losses after breaking a long-term ascending channel base yesterday. The British pound rallied on yet another stronger than expected wages growth data released yesterday morning. The USDJPY slipped below 140 and the USDCAD is testing the 1.32 support.
The US inflation data will determine whether the US dollar should further depreciate or is it time for correction. The consumer price index in the US is expected to have fallen to 3.1% from 4% printed a month earlier. But unfortunately, it won’t be enough to prevent the Fed from further rate hikes, because the further fall in...

The week started on a cautious note as European and US stocks eked out small gains, but appetite was limited appetite on news that the new capital requirements for the US banks would be tougher.
The good news is that big banks like JP Morgan and Citi didn’t react aggressively to the news, and even more reassuring news is that the smaller, regional bank stocks tempered the news quite well as well. Pacwest for example lost only around 1% and Invesco’s KBW index even closed the session slightly higher.
Other than that, it was a day of digesting and scaling...

Asia began the trading week digesting the news of a softer-than-expected NFP read, faster-than-expected wages growth in the US, combined with deflation in Chinese consumer and producer prices.
Due Wednesday, US inflation is expected to have fallen from 4% to around 3% in June, with a possibly uptick in the monthly data. But core inflation could prove stickier at around the 5% mark. In all cases, softening, and ideally softer-than-expected inflation figures carry the potential of pushing the Fed hawks back. That could give quick support to the US stocks which ended the first week of July, and the first...
