Summary:  Drivers today should be the ECB, earnings, the initial jobless claims and of course sentiment.


Good Morning,

Drivers today should be the ECB, earnings, the initial jobless claims and of course sentiment.

Yesterday, the reversal of Mondays sharp move continued with equities and yields  rising, the USD gives up ground. The USD Index recedes to 92.75, EURUSD trades 1.1793, Cable rose back aboe the 1.37 to trade 1.3720, Gold lost some ground to 1800 and Silver  fell to 25.13 after 25.33.

The three US Indexes rose close to 1% helped by strong earnings. Based on Reuters Data, 88% of the S&P 500 companies that reported so far this season beat expectations. Highlight yesterday was Chipotle Mexican Grill., rising 11% after strong numbers.

Key expectation for the ECB assessed by Christopher Dembik:

  • The ECB should maintain a cautiously optimistic outlook for the economic recovery in the eurozone, with the acknowledgement of downside risks posed by the spread of the Delta variant. Our baseline is unchanged: growth and inflation will likely surprise the ECB to the upside in late 2021 and in 2022, as it has done so far this year.
  • The ECB could potentially draw a more explicit link between the Asset Purchase Programme (APP), and the new inflation target set at “2%”.
  • The ECB should confirm once more that the unconventional monetary measures are becoming conventional
  • We think there is a broad agreement the PEPP will run until March 2022. But it is unclear how much support Lagarde will be able to gather to replace the PEPP by a new program whose format, duration and objective have yet to be clearly defined.
