Even a hint of an improving US jobs market sends shivers down investors' spines.
This is why the stronger than expected job openings data from the US spurred panic across the global financial markets yesterday. Note that the JOLTS data is volatile, and one data point is insufficient to point at changing trend. We still believe that the US jobs market will continue to loosen.
But the market reaction to yesterday’s JOLTS data was sharp and clear. The US yields spiked, equities were sold and the US dollar extended rally. Due today, the ADP report is expected to show a...

Relief that came with the news of a temporary avoidance of a potential government shutdown remained short lived. Sentiment in stocks markets turned rapidly sour, both in Europe and in the US, while the US treasuries didn’t even react positively to the no shutdown news in the first place. The selloff in the US 10-year bonds accelerated instead; the 10-year yield hit the 4.70% mark, whereas the 2-year yield remained steady-ish at around the 5.10% level. The gap between the US 2 and 10-year yields is now closing, but not necessarily for ‘good’ reasons.
The S&P5500 closed flat but the...

The US government didn’t shut down yesterday, as US policymakers agreed on a short-term funding deal that will keep the lights on until November 17th.
Bitcoin rallied and US equity futures gained in Asia hinting at improved appetite after the S&P500 recorded its 4th straight week of losses last week, and a nearly 5% fall in September. Investors didn’t flock into the US Treasuries following the US no-shutdown news, however.
Elsewhere, the Chinese official PMI rose above the 50 threshold, the Japanese tankan survey showed that confidence among big manufacturers improved for a second month, while inflation in the Eurozone...

The first set of inflation data from the Eurozone countries was mixed. Later this morning, we will find out the overall Eurozone inflation number for September. With a little bit of chance, the actual data will meet the soft market expectations, and strengthen the hand of the European Central Bank (ECB) doves. Yet this month’s figures should be taken with a pinch of salt.
The EURUSD tipped a toe below the 1.05 mark than rebounded on the back of a global retreat in the US dollar rally. The dollar retreated on the back of a soft set of economic data....

The selloff in bonds continues on US government drama. The sell-off in US 10-year papers accelerated yesterday and the 10-year yield spiked to 2.64%. The 2-year yield however, which captures the expectations on Federal Reserve (Fed) actions remain steady a touch above the 5% mark, on slow down worries on all the government and Detroit drama.
Volatility in US bond markets is rising, and the US dollar continues to amass major safe haven demands. Gold slipped below the $1900 per ounce.
In equities, energy and technology stocks helped the S&P500 limit losses yesterday. The energy sector was up as crude...

Investors continue to dump stocks and buy US dollars on looming uncertainty regarding whether the US government will be shut in three days. There is progress regarding a 6-week short-term funding deal, but getting an approval from the Senate will be a challenge.
The looming government shutdown talks continue feeding into a stronger US dollar.
The S&P500 fell to the lowest levels since the beginning of June and the Stoxx 600 could slip below 445 due to slowing European activity, waning Chinese demand, the European Central Bank’s (ECB) pledge to keep the monetary policy tight until inflation comes down significantly....

The US yields rose, and the dollar extended gains yesterday as the looming US government shutdown drama got the only remaining big rating agency company Moody’s to sound cautious about the US’ AAA rating. The US 10-year yield advanced past the 4.55% level, the US dollar and the S&P500 gained.
Yesterday’s renewed dollar rally pushed the EURUSD below a critical Fibonacci level yesterday, sterling, franc, and yen also extended losses against the greenback. Gold’s trend and momentum indicators turned negative, and the precious metal is about to show a death cross formation on daily chart.
In energy, the barrel of...

The week started on a cautious note as stocks in Asia mostly sold off following a rough week in the US, where the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) hawkish pause triggered a fresh wave of worries that the rates would stay higher for longer. The yields pushed higher as the S&P500 recorded the worst performance over the week since the banking crisis in March.
The UAW strikes will broaden to all GM and Stellantis parts plants in the US, which means that 5600 more workers will join the movement (Ford will likely be spared, for now, as some good progress is made...
