Good Morning,
Equities remain under pressure, USD Gains, Crypto drops significantly as the probability of a 75 BPS hike in June is at 75%, Chinese Lockdowns weigh heavy on Risk sentiment and new sanctions on Russia raise worries.
US 10 Year Yields rise to 3.15, the Bund Future falls to 151, GBPUSD to 1.2280 and EURUSD to 1.0509. USDJPY breached 131. The 1 month volatility in EURUSD rose to 10.5
The Dax is looking to open app 1% lower alongside US Indexes, the US 500 is at 4088 and the USTECH100 at 12587.
Bitcoin dropped to 33500 or 7%
All eyes will be on sentiment today as there is little on the economic agenda today. Key this week will be CPI numbers from China, Germany and the US on Wednesday. The May parade celebrating the allied victory over Germany is taking place and some fear an escalation in Ukraine.
Many assets are at key levels and markets are extremely nervous. Fear is in the driver seat but we have huge amounts of cash on the sidelines and Thursday we saw the largest inflow into managed assets this year so we could see a bear market rally.
