Summary: Higher Yields sour the mood
Good morning,
The high yields are weighing on sentiment causing shares to fall while the Dollar is losing ground despite the higher yields – not a good sign.
As Republicans are looking to pass Trumps Tax bill that would add approximately 10% to US debt, a 20 year bond auction found less demand than hoped. With a rising interest in Bonds , I recorded a Podcast with JEff from Stutz on how to find and trade them: https://youtu.be/V8-SRBvT1es
Japanese longer term yields remain at all time highs, the US ones broke above the key levels: the 10 year is 4.58, the 30 is 5.08.
The Dow ended down 1.9%, the S&P 500 down 1.6%, Nasdaq down 1.4% and the Russel -2.8%. Target fell more than 5% on weak earnings and outlook while Google rose on the new AI, Apple Tesla and Nvidia gave up ground. Volumes were huge at 19.4 billion. Vix jumps app 15%
Bitcoin rose to 111k, a new all time high, Gold and Silver are 3333 and 33.50, Platinum is 1080
EURUSD is 1.1340, GBPUSD 1.3425, USDJPY 143.20, USDCHF 0.8245.
Elon Musk hinted yesterday he was halting his political donations, a sign he is not very happy with the current administrations treatment of himself
Politics will remain key and any possible verbal intervention in bond markets, verbal or actual will be watched for. International PMI will be monitored closely to see if there is already any fallout from the tariffs. Key are France: 09:15, Germany 09:30, EU at 10:00, UK 10:30, US 15:45.
The US and the EU are negotiating on tariffs after reports surfaced yesterday the huge concessions the US made towards China are setting high expectations.
