MARKET COMMENTS
Sep E-mini S&Ps (ESU14 +0.17%) this morning are down -3.25 points (-0.17%) at a fresh 2-1/4 month low. The S&P 500 index on Thursday erased an early rally and tumbled to a 2-1/4 month low and closed lower: S&P 500 -0.56%, Dow Jones -0.46%, Nasdaq -0.42%. The main bearish factor for stocks was long liquidation spurred on by concern that rising tensions between Ukraine and Russia will undercut the European economy and drag the global economy lower as well. Stocks had risen in early trade after U.S. weekly initial unemployment claims unexpectedly fell -14,000 to 289,000, better than expectations of +3,000 to 305,000.
Sep 10-year T-notes (ZNU14 +0.21%) this morning are up +13.5 ticks at a 2-1/2 month high. Sep 10-year T-note futures prices on Thursday climbed to a 2-1/4 month high and closed higher. Bullish factors included (1) increased safe-haven demand as stocks fell on concern Russia may soon invade Ukraine, and (2) carry-over support from a drop in the German 10-year bund yield to a record low of 1.058%. The rally in T-notes was limited after weekly U.S. jobless claims unexpectedly declined. Closes: TYU4 +13.50, FVU4 +7.75.
The dollar index (DXY00 -0.14%) this morning is down -0.148 (-0.18%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is up +0.0031 (+0.23%) and USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down -0.28 (-0.27%) at a 2-week low. The dollar index on Thursday closed higher, but remained below Wednesday's 10-3/4 month high. Bullish factors included (1) weakness in EUR/USD after ECB President Draghi said that real interest rates will remain negative in the Eurozone for a "much longer time" than in the U.S. and that risks to the Eurozone economy are increasing from geopolitics worldwide, and (2) increased safe-haven demand for the dollar as global stocks fell. Closes: Dollar index +0.080 (+0.10%), EUR/USD -0.00191 (-0.14%), USD/JPY -0.006 (-0.01%).
Sep WTI crude oil (CLU14 +0.53%) this morning is up +77 cents (+0.79%) and Sep gasoline (RBU14 +0.35%) is up +0.0145 (+0.52%). Sep crude and gasoline prices on Thursday closed higher: CLU4 +0.42 (-0.43%), RBU4 +0.0349 (+1.27%). Sep crude recovered from a 6-month low and closed higher as signs of strength in the U.S. economy fueled short-covering in crude after weekly U.S. jobless claims unexpectedly declined. Gains in crude were muted as the dollar strengthened.

MARKET COMMENTS
Sep E-mini S&Ps (ESU14 +0.21%) this morning are up +3.00 points (+0.16%). The S&P 500 index on Wednesday opened lower at a 2-1/4 month low on geopolitical concerns after NATO said there's a risk of Russia sending troops into Ukraine under the "pretext" of a humanitarian or peacekeeping mission. Stock prices recovered, however, and closed little changed: S&P 500 unch, Dow Jones +0.08%, Nasdaq -0.02%. Bullish factors included (1) the U.S. Jun trade balance that unexpectedly narrowed to a -$41.5 billion deficit, better than expectations of an increase to a -$44.8 billion deficit and the smallest deficit in 5 months, which is positive for GDP growth, and (2) positive Q2 company earnings results as 75% of companies in the S&P 500 that have reported earnings thus far have beaten profit estimates.
Sep 10-year T-notes (ZNU14 +0.16%) this morning are up +4.5 ticks. Sep 10-year T-note futures prices on Wednesday climbed to a 2-month high on increased safe-haven demand after NATO said that there's a risk that Russia will invade Ukraine. Another positive was the Treasury's announcement that it will auction $67 billion of T-notes and bonds in next week's quarterly refunding, -$2 billion less than the prior refunding. T-notes came off of their best levels after the S&P 500 recovered from a 2-1/4 month low and. Closes: TYU4 +3.50, FVU4 +2.50.
The dollar index (DXY00 +0.02%) this morning is up +0.039 (+0.05%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.0008 (-0.06%) and USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is UP +0.20 (+0.20%). The dollar index on Wednesday posted a 10-3/4 month high on increased safe-haven demand over concern Russia may soon invade Ukraine. EUR/USD fell to an 8-3/4 month low on concern over the European economy after German factory orders unexpectedly fell -3.2% m/m, the largest monthly decline in 2-3/4 years, and after Italy Q2 GDP fell -0.2% q/q, which puts it into recession. EUR/USD recovered its losses and closed higher ahead of Thursday's ECB meeting. Closes: Dollar index +0.116 (+0.14%), EUR/USD +0.00067 (+0.05%), USD/JPY -0.494 (-0.48%).
Sep WTI crude oil (CLU14 -0.02%) this morning is down -32 cents (-0.33%) at a fresh 6-month low and Sep gasoline (RBU14 +0.07%) is down -0.0031 (-0.11%). Sep crude and gasoline prices on Wednesday settled mixed: CLU4 -0.46 (-0.47%), RBU4 +0.0270 (+0.99%).

Gasoline closed higher after weekly EIA gasoline stockpiles unexpectedly plunged -4.387 million bbl, more than expectations for no change.
