Barchart's Morning Call 6/8


Barchart Morning Call
Overnight Developments
  • E-mini S&Ps this morning are down -7.75 points after Spain's credit rating was cut three steps by Fitch Ratings and after German exports declined for the first time this year. Commodity prices are weaker with crude oil down over $2 a barrel (-2.91%) and metals and agricultural prices lower. T-notes are up +22.5 ticks on a flight to safety after Spain's credit rating was cut. The dollar index is up sharply (+0.86%) as the euro tumbled (-0.82%) when German exports fell more than expected and after Spain's credit rating was cut.
  • The Euro Stoxx 50 is down -0.62% after German exports fell more than forecast and Fitch Ratings cut Spain's credit Rating. The Asian stock markets today closed mostly lower on concern global central banks are not doing enough to fuel global growth after Fed Chairman Bernanke refrained from discussing any further Fed stimulus measures. Japan
  • Fitch Ratings downgraded Spain's credit rating three levels to BBB, two steps off of non-investment grade, saying the cost of shoring up Spain's banks may be as much as 100 billion euros, compared with its previous estimate of 30 billion euros.
  • The German Apr trade balance widened to 14.4 billion euros, more than the expected 12.3 billion euros, as Apr exports tumbled -1.7%, larger than expectations of -0.7% and Apr imports fell -4.8%, also a larger decline than expectations of -0.1%.
  • European stocks and U.S. stock index futures moved up from their worst levels after an unnamed German government official said European finance ministers will hold a conference call this weekend to discuss a possible aid package for Spain.
  • Germany's Bundesbank raised its 2012 German GDP forecast to +1.0% from a Dec estimate of +0.6%, citing a robust global economy, cheap financing conditions and solid domestic consumption, even as Europe's debt crisis presents an "exceptionally high" level of uncertainty. The Bundesbank also raised its 2012 German CPI estimate to 2.1% from a previous projection of 1.8%.
  • The Bank of Italy reported that Italian bank purchases of the country's sovereign debt rose +1.4% to 295 billion euros in April, the most on record.
  • ECB Council member Nowotny said a press conference in Vienna today that while the ECB never pre-commits on future policy actions, it "sees increased downside risks" on the economy and "may have to react." Nowotny also said that the ECB is unlikely to offer banks another longer term loan as "rate policy and liquidity must be seen in connection" with European fiscal policy measures.
    Market Comments
    • Sep E-mini S&Ps this morning are trading down -7.75 points on Spain's credit downgrade and weak German exports. The US stock market on Thursday closed mixed: S&P 500 -0.01%, Dow Jones +0.37%, Nasdaq 100 -0.43%. Stocks received an initial boost from China's surprise 25 bp interest rate cut and the successful Spanish bond auction. However, the stock market was later undercut by the 12,000 decline in initial unemployment claims and by Fed Chairman Bernanke's testimony before a Congressional panel in which he did not provide any hints of a new asset purchase program when Operation Twist expires at the end of this month. The Bank of England yesterday left its monetary policy unchanged, which was in line with market expectations.
    • Sep 10-year T-notes this morning are trading up +22.5 ticks on increased safe-haven demand as global equity markets tumble. Sep 10-year T-note prices on Thursday closed mildly higher: TYU2 +6, FVU2 +2.5. T-note prices closed higher on Thursday on the late sell-off in stocks and continued worries about the global economy. In addition, T-notes received a safe-haven boost after Fitch downgraded Spain by three notches to BBB from A, which left Spain's rating only two notches above junk.
    • The dollar index this morning is up +0.709 (+0.86%) on increasede safe-haven demand. EUR/USD is weaker by -1.03 (-0.82%), while USD/JPY is down -0.34 (-0.43%). The dollar index on Thursday closed slightly lower: Dollar Index -0.050 (-0.06%), EUR/USD -0.0021 (-0.17%), USD/JPY +0.44 (+0.55%). The Chinese rate cut was bearish for the dollar because safe-haven demand for the dollar will decline if the Chinese economy can bottom out and turn higher in the second half of the year. However, the dollar found support from the late sell-off in stocks and the Fitch credit rating downgrade for Spain.
    • July WTI crude oil prices this morning are down sharply by -$2.47 a barrel (-2.91%) and July gasoline is down -5.58 cents per gallon (-2.08%). Crude oil and gasoline prices on Thursday closed lower: CLN2 -0.86 (-1.01%), RBN2 -0.0165 (-0.61%). Crude oil prices theoretically should have received a bigger boost from the Chinese interest rate cut but instead closed lower on technical weakness, the inability of stocks to hold their gains, and ongoing concerns about global economic growth.

Barchart's Morning Call 6/7


Barchart Morning Call

Thu, 7 Jun 2012 07:00:00 -0500

Overnight Developments
  • E-mini S&Ps this morning are up 10.50 points (+0.80%) on the surprise Chinese rate cut and on the successful Spanish bond auction. Commodity prices are mixed with crude oil up 0.78% and agricultural prices mostly higher but with metals prices trading lower. T-notes are slightly higher by +0.5 tick. The dollar index is down -0.195 points (-0.24%).
  • The Euro Stoxx 50 is up 0.93% this morning on the Chinese rate cut and on Chancellor Merkel's comments in favor of fiscal union and the successful Spanish bond auction. Asian stocks today closed mostly higher: Japan +1.24%, Hong Kong +0.85%, China -0.60%, Taiwan +0.34%, Australia +1.31%, Singapore -0.06%, South Korea +2.81%, India +1.18%, Turkey +0.93%.
  • China cut its lending rate by 25 bp to 6.31% from 6.56%, in a surprise move that will be welcome around the world.
  • Chancellor Merkel today said that "We need more Europe, we need not only a monetary union, but we also need a so-called fiscal union, in other words more joint budget policy. And we need most of all a political union, that means we need to gradually give competencies to Europe and give Europe control."
  • The Bank of England today left its base rate at 0.50% and held its bond purchase ceiling unchanged at 325 billion pounds, which was in line with consensus market expectations.
  • Spain today successfully met its target of selling 2 billion worth of bonds at auction. The Spanish Treasury received 3.29 times as many bids as its accepted for the 10-year bond auction that yielded 6.044%. The government sold 611 million euros worth of 10-year bonds and another 1.46 million of 2 and 4 year securities, bringing the total to 2.07 billion euros. The sale was a big relief considering that Spain's finance minister earlier this week fretted that the bond markets were closed to the Spanish government.
    Market Comments
    • June E-mini S&Ps this morning are trading +10.50 (+0.80%) on the Chinese rate cut and the successful Spanish bond auction. The US stock market on Wednesday rallied sharply: S&P 500 +2.30%, Dow Jones +2.37%, Nasdaq 100 +2.36%. Bullish factors included (1) hopes that European policymakers may be in the process of putting together a bailout package for Spain, (2) ECB President Draghi's statement that the ECB is ready to act and that some ECB members favored a rate cut although the ECB left its refinancing rate unchanged at 1.00% at its meeting on Wednesday, (3) hopes that the Federal Reserve will extend its Operation Twist program at its meeting on June 19-20 given yesterday's report that Fed chairman Bernanke and Treasury Secretary Geithner are very worried about European banks, (4) the Beige Book report saying that the U.S. economy "expanded at a moderate pace" and that hiring was "steady or increased slightly," (5) short-covering after the recent sharp sell-off, and (6) some value buying with valuations at very cheap levels.
    • Sep 10-year T-notes this morning are trading +0.5 tick, stabilizing after Wednesday's sharp decline. June 10-year T-note prices on Wednesday closed sharply lower: TYU2 -20.5, FVU2 -9.75. The main bearish factor was reduced safe-haven demand with the sharp rally in US and European stocks. The S&P 500 index on Wednesday closed +2.37% and the Euro Stoxx 50 closed +2.42%. The T-note market is looking ahead to today's testimony by Fed Chairman Bernanke before a Congressional panel to gauge whether the Fed will extend its Operation Twist program.
    • The dollar index this morning is down -0.195 (-0.24%) on reduced safe-haven demand. EUR/USD is little changed while USD/JPY is up +0.18 (+0.23%). The dollar index on Wednesday closed with a fairly sharp loss: Dollar Index -0.504 (-0.61%), EUR/USD +0.0130 (+1.04%), USD/JPY +0.44 (+0.56%). The dollar index was undercut by reduced safe-haven demand with the sharp rally in stocks. Meanwhile, the euro was boosted by short-covering and by hopes that policy-makers are putting together a bailout package for Spain.
    • July WTI crude oil prices this morning are up 0.66 (+0.78%) while gasoline is down -0.0007 (-0.03%). Crude oil and gasoline prices on Wednesday closed moderately higher: CLN2 +0.73 (+0.87%), RBN2 +0.0056 (+0.21%). The main bullish factor was the sharp rally in the stock market and the sell-off in the dollar index. However, crude oil and gasoline prices were held back by the bearish weekly DOE report. The DOE report showed that U.S. oil inventories fell slightly by 111,000 barrels, which was a smaller decline than expectations of -1 million barrels. Meanwhile, gasoline inventories rose sharply by 3.346 million (versus expectations of +1 million barrels), and distillate inventories rose by 2.253 million barrels (versus expectations of +1 million barrels). The refinery utilization rate rose sharply by 1.9 points to 91.0%, which was larger than expectations of +0.5 points and left the rate 2.9 points above the 5-year seasonal average. Refineries are now operating in high gear and that should allow oil inventories to start to consistently drop and allow product inventories to consistently rise.

Barchart Morning Call
Overnight Developments
    June S&P E-minis are up 1.11% this morning on the 2.17% rally in European stocks and on hopes that European officials are getting closer to taking action to aid Spain. The markets are looking ahead to today's ECB decision and the U.S. Beige Book report. T-note prices are down 9 ticks. The dollar index is down -0.35%. Commodity prices are sharply higher on average by 1.09% with gold up 1.21%, copper up 2.05%, crude oil up 1.34%, and agricultural commodities mostly higher. The Euro Stoxx 50 this morning is up 2.17%. Asian stocks today closed mostly higher: Japan +1.81%, Hong Kong +1.43%, China -0.06%, Taiwan +0.80%, Australia +0.29%, Singapore +1.79%, India +2.71%, Turkey +0.46%. The market consensus is that the ECB at its meeting today will leave its refinancing rate unchanged at 1.00%, although Bloomberg found that 27% of respondents in an analyst poll expect the ECB to cut rates by at least 25 bp to 0.75%. German April industrial production fell -2.2% m/m, exactly reversing the +2.2% m/m again seen in March but weaker than market expectations of -1.0%. April industrial production was -0.7% y/y after the +1.4% y/y report seen in March. Spain's April industrial production fell by -8.3% y/y, which was weaker than market expectations of -6.5% y/y and March's -7.5% y/y. Spain may received a precautionary line of credit from the temporary bailout facility European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF), according to a story today the German newspaper Dei Welt that cited unidentified people with knowledge about talks on the possible option. The Spanish 10-year yield today fell by 6 bp to 6.25%. The Eurozone Q1 GDP was unrevised at unchanged q/q but was revised slightly lower on a year-on-year basis to -0.1% y/y from unchanged y/y.
    Market Comments
    • June E-mini S&Ps this morning are trading +14.25 points (+1.11%) on the 2.17% rally in European stocks and hopes that European policymakers are getting close to an aid package for Spain. U.S. stocks on Tuesday closed mildly higher: S&P 500 +0.57%, Dow Jones +0.22%, Nasdaq 100 +0.38%. Bullish factors on Tuesday included (1) some continued short-covering after the recent plunge, (2) the slightly stronger than expected U.S. May ISM non-manufacturing index report of +0.2 to 53.7 versus expectations of unchanged, and (3) the +3.0 point increase in the China May non-manufacturing index report of +3.0 to a 19-month high of 54.7. Tuesday's G-7 conference call among finance ministers and central bankers was a non-event with a promise simply for "coordinated" policies.
    • Sep 10-year T-notes this morning are down 9 ticks on the higher trade in global stocks and reduced safe-haven demand. T-note prices on Tuesday closed mixed: TYU2 -5, FVU2 +2. 10-year T-note prices were undercut on Tuesday by the higher trade in U.S. stocks and the +0.2 point increase in the May ISM non-manufacturing index versus expectations of unchanged. The T-note market is looking ahead to today's Beige Book report and Fed Chairman Bernanke's testimony before Congress on Thursday.
    • The dollar index this morning is down -0.289 (-0.35%) and EUR/USD is up +0.0044 (+0.35%) and hopes for European aid for Spain. USD/JPY is up +0.42 (+0.53%). The dollar index on Tuesday closed mildly higher: Dollar Index +0.268 (+0.32%), EUR/USD -0.0047 (-0.38%), USD/JPY -0.23 (-0.29%). The dollar index was boosted by the slightly stronger than expected U.S. ISM non-manufacturing report, while EUR/USD was undercut by a slew of weak European economic data and the Spanish finance minister's call for European aid for Spain's banking sector.
    • July WTI crude oil prices this morning are up +1.13 (+1.34%) and July gasoline is up +0.0249 (+0.93%) on the rally in stocks and today's weakness in the dollar index. July crude oil and gasoline prices on Tuesday closed mildly higher: CLN2 +0.31 (+0.37%), RBN2 +0.0140 (+0.52%). Bullish factors on Tuesday included short-covering, the mildly higher trade in U.S. stocks, and expectations for the first decline in U.S. oil inventories in 11 weeks in Wednesday's DOE report.

Barchart Morning Call 6/5


Barchart Morning Call
Overnight Developments
  • E-mini S&Ps are slightly lower this morning and commodities are mixed as the markets await today's G-7 conference call among finance ministers and central bankers. Gold is up 0.35% today, but copper is down -0.12% and crude oil is down -0.13%. Grains are higher while livestock is mixed. The dollar index is up +0.29% and EUR/USD is down -0.59%. Sep 10-year T-note prices are up 3 ticks.
  • The Euro Stoxx 50 is down -0.24% today as the markets await the outcome of today's G-7 meeting and as Spain's finance minister for the first time explicitly called for European help on financing its bank bailout. Asian stocks today closed higher on a partial recovery from Monday's sharp losses: Japan +1.04%, Hong Kong +0.40%, China -0.01%, Taiwan +1.53%, Australia +1.47%, Singapore +0.50%, South Korea +1.05%, India +0.20%, Turkey +0.24%.
  • The Australian central bank today cut its key interest rate by 25 bp to 3.50% in an action that the market generally expected. The action was taken partially in response to the European uncertainty and slower Chinese growth.
  • The HSBC/Markit China May non-manufacturing PMI rose by 3.0 points to a 19-month high of 54.7 from 54.1 in April.
  • European economic data today was generally weak. The German final-May services PMI was revised lower by 0.4 points to 51.8 from 52.2, although the Eurozone final-May services PMI was revised slightly higher by 0.2 points to 46.7 from 46.5. Eurozone April retail sales fell -1.0% m/m and -2.5% y/y, which was weaker than market expectations of -0.1% m/m and -1.1% y/y. German April factory orders fell -1.9% m/m and -3.8% y/y, which was weaker than expectations of -1.1% m/m.
  • German Chancellor Merkel said last night that Germany is open to European-wide supervision for systemically-important European banks. However, German Finance Minister Schaeuble today reiterated German opposition to debt sharing as a solution, saying that the Eurozone needs "a real fiscal union" before joint debt management can be discussed.
  • Spanish Finance Minister Montoro today called for European aid for its banks while saying that a full Spanish bailout was not necessary. He said Spanish banks don't need "excessive amounts" to recapitalize and the question is "where that figure comes from." He said, "That's why it's so important that European institutions help us achieve, help facilitate, that figure because we're not talking about astronomical figures." The Spanish bond yield today is up 4 bp at 6.42%. Santander Chairman Emilio Botin said yesterday that about 40 billion euros would be enough to solve Spain's banking problems, although other estimates run up to 75 billion euros.
    Market Comments
    • June E-mini S&Ps this morning are trading slightly lower by -2.00 points (-0.16%) on lower European stocks (-0.24%) and weak European economic data today, although on the positive side the Australian central bank cut its key interest rate by 25 bp. U.S. stocks on Monday closed mixed: S&P 500 +0.01%, Dow Jones -0.14%, Nasdaq 100 +0.78%. The U.S. market on Monday found support from short-covering after the recent plunge and from the +0.50% higher close in European stocks. The stock market was able to shake off the bearish news of the -0.6% decline in U.S. April factory orders and the -0.9 point drop in the China May non-manufacturing PMI index to a 14-month low of 55.2.
    • Sep 10-year T-notes this morning are up +3 ticks on the slightly lower trade in E-mini S&Ps and on some nervousness ahead of today's G-7 meeting. T-note prices on Monday closed sharply lower: TYU2 -20.5, FVU2 -9.5. T-note prices on Monday fell on long liquidation pressure sparked by the stabilization in U.S. stocks and the +0.50% rally in European stocks. The T-note market is awaiting today's G-7 conference call and Thursday's Bernanke testimony to a Congressional panel.
    • The dollar index this morning is up +0.243 this morning with EUR/USD down -0.0074 (-0.59%) on Europe's weak economic data and Spain's call for help on a bank bailout. USD/JPY is slightly lower by -0.10 yen. The dollar index on Monday fell back from last Friday's 10-month high and closed lower: Dollar Index -0.339 (-0.40%), EUR/USD +0.0065 (+0.52%), USD/JPY +0.03 (+0.04%). The dollar index on Monday fell on long liquidation pressure sparked by the recovery in U.S. stocks from the daily low and the +0.50% higher close in European stocks. USD/JPY found some support on short-covering and on the implicit threat of Japanese currency market intervention to cap the yen's strength. BOJ Governor Shirakawa on Monday said that the BOJ has been monitoring "the recent appreciation of the yen."
    • July WTI crude oil prices this morning are slightly lower by -0.11 (-0.13%) while July gasoline is down 1.02 cents (-0.38%) as the market frets about Europe. July crude oil and gasoline prices on Monday closed mildly higher: CLN2 +0.375 (+0.31%), RBN2 +0.0139 (+0.52%). Bullish factors yesterday included short-covering, the recovery in U.S. stocks from the daily lows, and expectations for the first decline in U.S. oil inventories in 11 weeks in Wednesday's DOE report. The market consensus for Wednesday's weekly DOE report is for a 1 million decline in crude oil inventories, a 1 million increase in gasoline inventories, a 1 million barrel increase in distillate inventories, and a 0.5 point increase in the refinery utilization rate to 89.6% of capacity. U.S. refineries have now ramped up operations enough after spring maintenance that they should start to work down the excessive supply of crude oil and start producing more gasoline and distillates. U.S. crude oil inventories have soared by 16.7% since the beginning of the year to a 22-year high and are currently 9.5% above the 5-year seasonal average, the highest such level since December 2010.

Barchart's Morning Call 6/4


Barchart Morning Call
Overnight Developments
  • June E-mini S&Ps this morning are trading slightly higher by +1.75 points (+0.14%) on some short-covering after last Friday's sharp sell-off and on higher European stocks today. Commodity prices on average are mildly higher by +0.24% this morning with gold up 0.52%, although copper is down -0.54% and crude oil is down -1.12%. Grain prices are higher today. T-notes are down 5 ticks. The dollar index is down -0.116 points (-0.14%) with EUR/USD little changed and USD/JPY up +0.11 yen.
  • The Euro Stoxx 50 this morning is up 0.77% today on a recovery from recent losses. London is closed today for a spring bank holiday and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Asian stocks today sold off sharply on last Friday's weak U.S. payroll report and Sunday's report of a decline in China's non-manufacturing PMI: Japan -1.71%, Hong Kong -2.01%, China -2.81%, Taiwan -2.98%, Australia -1.94%, Singapore -1.70%, South Korea -2.27%, India -0.15%, Turkey -0.25%.
  • Spanish 10-year bond yields fell by 3 bp to 6.50% today after the number of people in Spain claiming unemployment benefits fell by 30,113 to 4.71 million persons. That was the second month in a row that persons claiming unemployment benefits fell following the 6,632 decline seen in April. Spanish Prime Minister Rajoy today said the EU "needs to reinforce its common institutional architecture so that investors regain confidence in the single currency. Spain will emerge from the storm through its own efforts and with the support of our European partners."
  • A spokesman for Spanish Prime Minister Rajoy's office said Spain is not under pressure from its European partners to seek a bailout, denying a report that German Chancellor Merkel and French President Hollande are pressuring Spain to seek a bailout.
  • The June Sentix investor confidence index fell to -28.9 from -24.5 in May, although that was a bit better than the market consensus of -30.0.
  • The April Eurozone PPI eased to unchanged m/m and +2.6% y/y from +0.5% m/m and +3.5% y/y, which was weaker than market expectations of +0.2% m/m and +2.7% y/y.
  • China's May non-manufacturing PMI fell by 0.8 points to a 14-month low of 55.2 from 56.1 in April, according to a report on Sunday from the Chinese National Bureau of Statistics and the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing.
    Market Comments
    • June E-mini S&Ps this morning are trading +1.75 points on some short-covering after last Friday's sharp losses and on this morning's higher trade in European stocks. U.S. stocks on Thursday closed mildly lower: S&P 500 -2.46%, Dow Jones -2.22%, Nasdaq 100 -2.62%. The S&P 500 index last Friday fell to a new 4-1/2 month low and has now fallen by a total of 10.2% from the 4-year high posted in early April. Bearish factors on Friday included (1) the weaker than expected May payroll report of +69,000 (vs expectations of +150,000) and the 0.1 point rise in the May unemployment rate to 8.2%, (2) the larger-than-expected -1.3 point decline in the May ISM manufacturing index to 53.5 versus expectations of -1.0 to 53.8, and (3) Thursday night's weaker than expected May Chinese ISM manufacturing index of -2.9 to 50.4.
    • Sep 10-year T-notes this morning are -5 ticks on the higher trade in E-mini S&Ps and European stocks. T-note prices on Friday closed higher: TYU2 +25.5, FVU2 +6.75. The 10-year T-note yield last Friday fell to a new closing low of 1.45%. T-notes rallied further on the weak US payroll and ISM manufacturing reports and Chinese ISM manufacturing report, which all added up to an alarming synchronous decline in global economic growth. The weak economic reports, combined with the ongoing European debt crisis, increase the chances that the FOMC at its next meeting on June 19-20 will implement a new securities purchase program of some type when the current Operation Twist program expires at the end of June.
    • The dollar index this morning is mildly lower by -0.116 (-0.14%) on reduced safe-haven demand with the higher trade in E-mini S&Ps and European stocks. EUR/USD is up +0.00003 (+0.02%) and USD/JPY is up +0.11 yen (+0.14%). BOJ Governor Shirakawa today said that the BOJ has been monitoring "the recent appreciation of the yen" in a warning to the FX markets about the possibility of intervention. The dollar index on Friday posted a new 10-month high but then fell back and closed slightly lower: Dollar Index -0.07 (-0.09%), EUR/USD +0.0069 (+0.56%), USD/JPY -0.30 (-0.38%). The dollar fell on Friday as some long liquidation pressure emerged after the weak U.S. payroll report put the U.S. economy in a weaker light and increased the chances for a new Fed securities purchase program, which would be bearish for the dollar. EUR/USD posted a new 2-year low but then recovered on some short-covering to closed +0.56%. USD/JPY extended the 2-1/2 month decline and posted a new 3-1/2 month low on the weak U.S. economic reports and continued safe-haven buying in the yen. The markets this week will be watching for fresh threats from Japanese officials for intervention against the yen.
    • July WTI crude oil prices this morning are down -0.93 (-1.12%) and July gasoline is down -3.20 (-1.20%) as market concerns continue about weak global economic growth with Sunday's weak Chinese non-manufacturing PMI report of -0.9 to 55.2. July crude oil and gasoline prices on Friday closed sharply lower: CLN2 -3.30 (-3.81%), RBN2 -0.0659 (-2.42%). July crude oil has now plunged by $29 per barrel in the past 3 months to post a new 8-month low and close at $83.23, the lowest level since last October just before the economy started to regain its strength. Crude oil has plunged on the syncronized decline in economic growth in the U.S., Europe and Asian, which will substantially undercut fuel demand. In addition, Bloomberg reported on Friday that OPEC production in May rose by 0.1% m/m to a new 3-1/2 year high of 31.595 million barrels per day. Saudi production rose by 0.8% to 9.9 million bpd. Crude oil also continues to see heavy downward pressure from the 16.7% surge in U.S. oil inventories seen since the beginning of the year to a 22-year high.
