Today we look at Friday's strong resurgence in US equities, which came after a seeming strong rejection of the rally into pivotal levels in the US S&P 500 index. This leaves market technicals in limbo ahead of the blast of earnings reports from large US companies this week and next. We also discuss confusing macro signals as financial conditions continue to ease, although treasury yields have pulled back from their recent slide. Also on the pod: the latest positioning data in commodities markets, natural gas on colder weather, wheat and coffee under pressure, JPY weaker, a look ahead at this week's busy earnings and less busy macro calendar and more. Today's pod features Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today we note that rebounding yields on hawkish ECB talk and another very strong weekly jobless claims report out of the US have the JPY weakening again, but not supporting the US dollar outside of USDJPY. Elsewhere, we look at stronger than expected results from Netflix and weaker than expected results from Procter and Gamble as volumes drop due to price hikes. A look at crude oil dynamics now that the EU is attempting its embargo on Russian crude, gold maintaining remarkable strength and avoiding notable consolidation, the macro calendar for the week ahead and more. Today's pod features Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today, we look at the US equity market reacting poorly to bad US economic data yesterday rather than celebrating the drop in treasury yields to new cycle lows, an interesting change of behavior. We also look at the suddenly firming US dollar and an even firmer Japanese yen overnight, just a day after the Bank of Japan triggered a slide in the yen. Gold holding steady through all of the fuss, while cyclical commodities rolled over a bit as China is set to go off line next week for the Lunar New Year holiday. Today's pod features Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today, we look at the jolt back to the downside for the JPY after wily Bank of Japan governor Kuroda failed to deliver further policy tweaks and looks set to end his time at the helm in April without offering further policy tightening. Still, the JPY may not sell-off much more beyond the knee-jerk as bond yields are on the decline, keeping spreads to "capped" Japanese yields orderly and even tighter. Elsewhere, we note easign financial conditions and plenty of USD liquidity and whether it has the potential to driver further gains for risky assets and a weaker US dollar. We also dive into the latest on crude oil and metals, and earnings reports and macro data up today in the US. Today's pod features Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today, we look at the upcoming Bank of Japan meeting, noting the extreme anticipation around the event, together with the likelihood of considerable intraday volatility in the wake of the event, even if the Bank of Japan tries to deliver as little as possible, as we all know that new leadership and a likely further tightening of policy is in the pipeline with Kuroda's replacement after April. A look at crude oil, copper, upcoming earnings and macro data and more on today's pod, which features macro strategist Charu Chanana on the BoJ, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today, we look at an interesting week ahead as US equities continue to trade up against a pivotal resistance area (just above the 200-day moving average and just below the 4,000 level for the US SP& 500 index) as earnings season set for a big blast next week. Today US markets are closed. The event risk of the week, meanwhile, is the hotly anticipated Bank of Japan meeting on Wednesday, with markets unsure on whether Governor Kuroda and company are set to deliver further policy tweaks. Futures positioning in commodities, especially metals and the latest on natural gas in Europe and more on today's pod, which features Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today we look at the ironically in-line US CPI release yesterday and the market eventually deciding that the data was benign. Equity markets rallied into very critical resistance levels as US treasury yields dipped into the range lows and financial conditions eased. While the US dollar was weaker, the big mover in FX was the JPY, which is pounding stronger into anticipation of a further policy tweak at next Wednesday's Bank of Japan meeting. In commodities, we look at the jump in grains on the WASDE report, talk natural gas, metals as gold has traded into key levels after the CPI release and more. Today's pod features Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.

Today we look at global equity markets gunning for more to the upside, apparently expecting a benign US CPI release today and pricing in a soft landing scenario as long treasury yields settled back lower after a strong US 10-year treasury auction yesterday. We also look at a resurgent JPY, why the euro is strong, but some thoughts on longer term caution, coffee and grains in commodities, the latest expansion plans abroad from TSMC, weak housing news but strong housing stocks & more. Today's pod features Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.
