Friday Jun 06, 2025
Friday Jun 06, 2025
Today's slide deck: https://bit.ly/3ZlIZVD
Today, we look at whether the major Musk-Trump rift was one of the chief drivers of weak risk sentiment in US markets yesterday even beyond the Tesla fallout, as we also got further evidence of weak US labor market data. In markets, the standout development was silver ripping through resistance and posting new 13-year highs. Today's pod features Saxo Head of Commodity Strategy Ole Hansen, hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy.

Thursday Jun 05, 2025
Thursday Jun 05, 2025
Today, we discuss yesterday's weak US numbers cratering the US dollar, if once again not decisively, and boosting US treasuries. Equities provided little inspiration and it feels like the market is at a loss with what to do here with a crossfire of three massive issues possibly pulling things in very different directions. Today's podcast hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy.

Tuesday May 27, 2025
Tuesday May 27, 2025
Today a look at Japanese Government Bond yields getting crushed overnight on signs that the MoF is planning to tweak its issuance to avoid further pressure on long yields. This inspired a JPY sell-off and the US dollar has backed up across the board as well. Elsewhere, risk appetite is in fine form, if we have some longer term concerns on heavy retail participation.
