Summary:  Risk Off prevails- will buyers step in?


Good Morning

Fridays we saw a selloff in equities USD strength, trigger was a combination of corona worries, a disappointing University of Michigan consumer confidence and profit taking on the failure to make new highs. Overnight the sentiment persist with major indexes 0.5% lower. Amazon Apple and Nvidia were weighed heavily on the Nasdaq with Nvidia giving up 4% . Cruise Lines lie Carnival and Norwegian lost 5%.

The USD Index remains strong at 92.75, EURSUD trades at 1.1800, GBPUSD at 1.3750 and Gold and Silver at 1806 and 25.35. Silver fell through the 200day moving average and has fallen through the 25.50 support

OPEC+ agreed to increase oil supply from August pushing the price app 1% lower.

Today the Agenda is basically empty, and key will be if the negative mood persists or if we find a buying interest to maintain in the range.

Netflix , Twitter, Johnson & Johnson, United Airlines and Intel, and many other companies will report earnings this week and the ECB meeting on Thursday will be very important along with global PMIs on Friday.
