US Close - Stock rebound in volatile trade, Crude prices crumble, Gold falls, Bitcoin follows Nasdaq rally
US stocks were all over the place as investors assess a wall of worry that include a weakening consumer, persistent supply chain issues, and growth concerns, while some investors think the selling of stocks is nearing the end. Billionaire hedge fund manager David Tepper noted that he covered his Nasdaq short and anticipates that 12,000 holds for the Nasdaq. The bond market selloff is clearly repositioning itself ahead of tomorrow’s inflation data as the 10-year Treasury yield is well below yest

US Close - Stocks turn positive after bond market selloff overdone, Oil finds major support at $100 level, Gold pummeled, Bitcoin hovers
Wall Street still seems hesitant to ‘buy the dip’ after another round of soft economic data and on fears the market might not be pricing in enough Fed hawkishness. The bond market delivered another major move with the 10-year Treasury peaking just above the 3.00% level.  The S&P 500 wasn’t ready to break the critical 4,000 level just yet, which could suggest stocks are ready for the typical consolidation that happens before a key Fed decision. Fed On Wednesday, the Fed will debate a 75-basis p

US Close - Stocks tumble after massive tech earnings, Oil surges, Gold rebounds as dollar rally exhausted, Bitcoin struggles
US stocks did not stand a chance after mega-cap tech earnings disappointed and a record quarterly gain for Fed Chair Powell’s closely watched employment cost index.  Rate hike bets continue to pile up ahead of next week’s FOMC decision.  Surging wage pressures could be what is needed to make the Fed even more aggressive with tightening at the June and July Fed meetings.  Tech Earnings Apple shares are under pressure as supply constraints could impact this quarter’s sales by up to $8 billion.  I

Meta boosts Asian markets
Asian equities surge higher with US futures Wall Street’s main indexes had a sideways day overnight, finishing almost unchanged from the day before. The Meta results though, have lifted US index futures sharply as Meta rallied by over 15% in extended trading, lifting other tech heavyweights.

Meta makes Asia feel better
Equity markets are higher in Asia today as US index futures rally after Meta managed to post minuscule growth in user numbers overnight along with robust financials. The results came too late to save OTC trading on Wall Street from a sideways day, but post-close extended trading has allowed the FOMO gnomes, always on the lookout for any sliver of a reason to buy, to work their magic in Asian hours.

Russian oil payment demands spooks the market The Ukraine/Russia conflict has suffered some headline fatigue of late, and more than a little complacency by the world’s financial markets, as China's slowdown fears grabbed centre-stage. With a nod to the Rolling Stones in the title of today’s newsletter, the economic ripples of the Ukraine conflict are back on the front pages.

Stocks tumble ahead of big tech earnings, soft earnings start this week, bitcoin reverses lower
US stocks see red.US stocks are declining as Wall Street abandons the tech trade ahead of massive tech earnings later this week and as global slowdown fears remain front and center as aggressive central bank tightening jitters won’t go away.  Inflation won’t let up anytime soon as the Russian headlines suggest the war in Ukraine could see further escalations, which means inflation won't ease up and that will continue to drive central bank tightening fears.

US Close: Stocks show resilience, Musk and Twitter have a deal, Oil’s demand problem, Gold’s danger zone, Bitcoin above $40k
US stocks were under pressure earlier as investors couldn’t quite summon up the courage to ‘buy the dip’ as global growth concerns were driven as China seems poised they won’t back away from their zero COVID strategy.  With no more Fed speak until next week’s policy decision, the bond market selloff was ready for a pause.

Tech glitch after Netflix results
It's been a slightly better day for stock markets in Europe as they continue to fluctuate in the same ranges they've traded in for the last month. US indices are having a mixed start, with the Dow outperforming, up around 1%, while the S&P is managing small gains and the Nasdaq is getting hit in the aftermath of Netflix's results. The tech sector has had a rough year as a result of the drastically changing interest rate environment and results like those from Netflix don't help.

Week Ahead -The bond market selloff continues
The bond market selloff did not ease up heading into the long holiday weekend and traders will have to soon decide if they decide to sell in May and go away.  The upcoming week is filled with another round of earnings, major economic data out of China, a French debate, and a wrath of commentary from finance ministers and central bankers at the IMF/World Bank spring meetings.

US Close: Retail Sales weighed by energy price surge, Musk’s calculated Twitter offer, Commodities hit hard by strong dollar, Bitcoin below $40k
Wall Street is ready for a long weekend and stocks are struggling here after mixed bank earnings and a retail sales report that showed the consumer is spending more money on essentials.  The second act of bank earnings rewarded Goldman and Morgan Stanley for strong trading revenues, while Citigroup was hampered by their exposure to Russia and Wells Fargo posted disappointing revenue and net interest income.

ECBs unhelpful ambiguity
European stocks are edging higher ahead of the long bank holiday weekend, ending the week not far from where they started as investors mull the latest policy decisions, inflation data and earnings. There's been a number of interest rate hikes this week, some more expected than others, while the ECB has instead opted for the usual cocktail of unhelpful ambiguity. Anyone hoping for a hawkish hint ahead of its next meeting and forecasts will no doubt be very disappointed, albeit not surprised.

US Close - Stocks pare losses on reports ECB working on a tool to tackle yields, Canadian jobs, Oil rebounds, Gold higher, Bitcoin struggles
US stocks pared losses after reports that the ECB is working a crisis tool that could help tackle what seems to be a likely surging bond yield problem for the southern periphery.  The ECB has the hardest job of all the other major central banks and this potential tool shows they are trying to get ahead of what will be an unbalanced economic recovery once inflation eases.  Wall Street is looking at surging Treasury yields and swapping out tech stocks for more defensive plays such as energy, finan

NFP React: Stocks have lackluster start for Q2, another Strong NFP report, ISM feeling supply chain challenges
US stocks are off to a lackluster start to the quarter after an impressive nonfarm payroll report and soft ISM manufacturing report.  The labor market remains strong and employers are making progress filling vacancies.  The ISM manufacturing report confirmed the great story being told about employment but also showed inflation is getting uglier and activity is slowing as supply chain issues persist.  Inflation pressures could soon lead to demand destruction so it might be hard to see equities re

US Close: Wild start on Wall Street, Biden’s Tax Fantasy, Apple’s Warning, China Lockdowns send oil lower, King Dollar sends gold lower, Bitcoin breakout
It’s been a bumpy start to the trading week as bond yields remain elevated as inflation fears continue to chip away whatever solid footing remains for the US economy. It is not 1970s style inflation yet, but eventually risk appetite will struggle as the robust consumer demand softens.  Stocks have been resilient and have been somewhat supported on hopes that both the war in Ukraine won’t be a long one and that a lot of the inflation we are currently seeing will ease in the second half of the yea
