Saxo Market Call

Today's slide deck: https://bit.ly/3t8CsL6   -

Today we run through the FOMC non-event that kept the Fed in wait-and-see mode as expected, although it was sufficiently dovish to trigger a slightly lower anticipation of eventual Fed tightening and a weaker US dollar. We also look at Biden's address on his stimulus and tax proposals, important inflation expectations considerations for the development in US yields, EU yields as the German Bund trades at critical support, how EU yields are driving EURJPY, and not least, run through Apple's latest strong result and earnings reports on the docket for today. Today with Peter Garnry on equities, Althea Spinozzi on fixed income, and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today we look at US President Biden looking to nearly double the capital gains tax in an American Families Plan to be delivered at a joint session of Congress next Wednesday and the implications for assets. If Biden is able to push through the planned changes for the US tax code, it would represent the largest policy shift since the Reagan Revolution. The announcement triggered a sell-off in equities and crypto. Elsewhere, we look at the effect of ambitious climate targets announced at a climate summit yesterday in the equity space and inflationary pressures in Europe from carbon pricing and globally from a further rise in food prices. On today's pod were Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today we look at a "classic" episode of highly correlated risk-off across markets, as equities suffered another ugly session in the US, followed by an even uglier session in Japan on concerns of new Covid lockdowns there, while the USD, JPY and safe haven bonds enjoyed broad strength. Netflix results and guidance added to the negative energy and we look at incoming earnings elsewhere, as well as key signs of a budding political revolution in Germany that could change the face of Europe after the September election. Finally, we discuss a key nomination hearing today for "anti-trust icon" Lina Khan, who would join the FTC if approved. On today's pod were Peter Garnry on equities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.
