Summary: Market is orienting itself ahead of key earnings
Good Morning,
Yesterday was a bit of a consolidation day, the Dow Jones fell on IBM losing more than 9% after disappointing results, the S&P and the Nasdaq were positive, Bitcoin retreated off the highs and is currently trading at 62850. Targets of 80.000 and 100.000 keep being mentioned while a decent number of analysts reiterate they consider the crypto currency as worthless. The BITO traded at much lower volumes yesterday causing a lack of anticipated demand. Tesla could add more than 3% and traded at 900 for the first time (after the split) The Vix continued to fall and traded at a new low from since before corona.
The USD index traded quietly even though the 5 year break even rate rose to an all time high. EURUSD trades at 1.1630, GBPUSD at 1.3800. TRY fell to record lows after a further rate cut, currently we are trading 9.50 against the USD. Gold and silver are near yesterday’s levels at 1787 and 24.17.
The big question remains to which extent the current spikes in inflation are transitory or not and it seems the doves are currently in the stronger position.
