Summary:  Risk Averseness brings back volatility


Good Morning

Risk aversion hit traders yesterday with global equities under pressure and bonds yields dropping. US Indexes lost app 0.8% , the Dax lost 1.7% but was supported by the lower end of the trading range. The 10 Year yield is holding near 1.3%. The fall in yields is putting the “reflation” trade into question and a shift out of banks and energy could cause interesting moves.

Gold and Silver fall to 1800 and 25.80 and Bitcoin trades at 33000. EURUSD is at 1.1830  and Cable is below the 1.38.

Trigger was a combination of rising corona cases across the world, uncertainty about the path the Fed will likely take and the RCB adjusting it`s inflation target.

The Swiss Frank gained strength yesterday, EURCHF fell 76 pips after news that the SNB forex reserves rose. EURCHF is trading at  at 1.0840.

The Biden administration is expected to blacklist additional Chinese companies on human rights issues.

The IMF is planning the distribution of USD 650 bio  via Special Drawing rights as early as late August.

The mood seems to lighten at the moment with futures rising but it seems brittle and a little caution seems warranted. Worth watching are the 200d Moving average in Silver exactly where we are currently trading, also the lower end of the Dax Wedge comes at 15350 and held up nicely yesterday.
