Morning Brew February 27 2024
Erik Schafhauser
Senior Relationship Manager
Good Morning,
Tech remains strong given if slightly off the highs as traders try to decide what focus on next. Yesterday the Dow lost 0.15%, the S&P 500 0.4% and the Nasdaq 0.13%.
The USD Index fell to 103.70 while 10 Year yields are at 4.28. EURUSD is 1.0858 , GBPUSD 1.2690 and USDJPY 150.4 after a higher CPI in Japan.
Gold and Silver are 2033 and 22.60, Bitcoin jumped to 56k.
Headlines are:
- Israel agrees to halt attacks during Ramadan
- US is once again approaching the debt ceiling
- Inflation in Japan 0.2% higher than expected
- Macron did not rule out sending troops toUkraine.
Sentiment is a bit tricky to read ahead of the US and EU inflation data on Thursday and Friday but I suggest to remain nimble and open minded.
