Barchart Morning Call

OVERNIGHT MARKETS AND NEWS
Mar E-mini S&Ps (ESH17 +0.09%) are up +0.11% and European stocks are up +0.71% after upbeat comments late Thursday evening from Fed Chair Yellen who said the U.S. economy faces no serious short-term obstacles with low unemployment and wage growth beginning to pick up. Stock gains were limited on global growth concerns after China Dec exports declined more than expected. Also, a -1.13% decline in Feb WTI crude prices (CLG17 -1.08%) is undercutting energy producing stocks. Asian stocks settled mixed: Japan +0.80%, Hong Kong +0.47%, China -0.21%, Taiwan -0.33%, Australia -0.79%, Singapore +1.07%, South Korea -0.76%, India -0.03%. Chinese stocks closed lower as exporting companies sold-off on earnings concerns after China Dec exports fell more than expected.
The dollar index (DXY00 -0.15%) is down -0.17%. EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is up +0.39% and found support on a jump in German Dec wholesale prices by the most in 4-years, which bolsters the case for the ECB to taper QE. USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down -0.04%.
Mar 10-year T-note prices (ZNH17 +0.11%) are up +4 ticks.
Fed Chair Yellen said late Thursday evening that the U.S. economy faces no serious short-term obstacles, but must deal with long-term challenges of low productivity and income inequality. She said “unemployment has now reached a low level; the labor market is generally strong and wage growth is beginning to pick up. Inflation has moved up from a very low level, and it's a little bit under our 2% objective, but it's very close."
The German Dec wholesale price index rose +1.2% m/m and +2.8% y/y, the fastest pace of increase in 4 years.
The China Dec trade balance shrank to a surplus of +$40.82 billion, narrower than expectations of +$47.55 billion and the smallest surplus in 8 months. Dec exports fell -6.1% y/y, weaker than expectations of -4.0% y/y. Dec imports rose +3.1% y/y, stronger than expectations of +3.0% y/y.

MARKET COMMENTS
Mar E-mini S&Ps (ESH17 +0.09%) this morning are up +2.50 points (+0.11%). Thursday's closes: S&P 500 -0.21%, Dow Jones -0.32%, Nasdaq -0.17%. The S&P 500 on Thursday dropped to a 1-week low and closed lower on some continued disappointment that President-elect Trump did not provide specifics on any of his fiscal-stimulus plans in Wednesday's press conference. There was also continued weakness in pharmaceutical and biotech stocks after President-elect Trump said he would force drug makers to bid for government business to save the government money. Stocks found some support from the +10,000 rise in U.S. weekly jobless claims to 247,000, less than expectations of +20,000 to 255,000.
Mar 10-year T-notes (ZNH17 +0.11%) this morning are up +4 ticks. Thursday's closes: TYH7 +2.50, FVH7 +1.50. Mar 10-year T-notes on Thursday closed higher and the 10-year T-note yield fell to a 6-week low of 2.305%. T-note prices were boosted by the sell-off in the S&P 500 to a 1-week low, which boosted the safe-haven demand for T-notes, and by strong foreign demand for the Treasury's $12 billion auction of 30-year T-bonds that had a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.32, above the 12-auction average of 2.29. In addition, indirect bidders, a proxy for foreign buyers, bought 66.7% of the auction, above the 12-auction average of 61.4%.
The dollar index (DXY00 -0.15%) this morning is down -0.17 (-0.17%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is up +0.0032 (+0.30%). USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down -0.05 (-0.04%). Thursday's closes: Dollar index -0.43 (-0.42%), EUR/USD +0.0031 (+0.29%), USD/JPY -0.69 (-0.60%). The dollar index on Thursday tumbled to a 1-month low and closed lower on continued liquidation of long dollar positions on disappointment that President-elect Trump did not discuss his administration's fiscal stimulus plans at Wednesday's press conference. The dollar was also undercut by reduced dollar interest rate differentials after the 10-year T-note yield dropped to a 1-1/4 month low. USD/JPY fell to a 1-month low as weakness in stocks boosted the safe-haven demand for the yen.
Feb WTI crude oil prices (CLG17 -1.08%) this morning are down -60 cents (-1.13%) and Feb gasoline (RBG17 -0.52%) is -0.0092 (-0.57%). Thursday's closes: Feb crude +0.78 (+1.49%), Feb gasoline +0.0247 (+1.55%). Feb crude oil and gasoline on Thursday closed higher on the sell-off in the dollar index to a 1-month low and on signs of falling OPEC oil production after Saudi Arabia's Energy Minister Al-Falih said that Saudi oil production is now below 10 million bpd, a deeper cut than the 10.058 million bpd it had agreed to and the lowest production in 22 months. Crude oil also found continued support from Wednesday's EIA data that showed strong refinery demand for crude after U.S. refiners used 17.1 million bpd of crude last week, the most since data began in 1989.

Barchart Morning Call

OVERNIGHT MARKETS AND NEWS
Mar E-mini S&Ps (ESH17 -0.29%) are down -0.28% and European stocks are down -0.09% on negative fallout from President-elect Trump's press conference Wednesday that lacked specifics and details on any economic-stimulus plans. The dollar index (DXY00 -0.98%) is down -0.76% at a 4-week low and sold-off as well as a lack of details on infrastructure investment from Trump spurred liquidation of long dollar positions. The weak dollar boosted metals prices with Feb COMEX gold (GCG17 +0.75%) up +0.68% at a 1-1/2 month high and Mar COMEX copper (HGH17 +0.86%) up +0.61% at a 1-month high. Crude oil prices also moved higher on the weak dollar with Feb WTI crude (CLG17 +1.19%) up +1.15%. Crude prices also garnered support on signs that OPEC is keeping its pledge to cut oil production when Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said "our production now is below 10 million bpd and we are going the extra mile to lead out colleagues within and outside OPEC to make sure the market sees that there is serious action." Losses in European stocks were contained after Eurozone Nov industrial production rose more than expected.

Asian stock markets fell with China's Shanghai Composite and Japan's Nikkei Stock index both at 1-week lows as drug makers and health-care stocks sold-off after President-elect Trump on Wednesday criticized the pharmaceutical industry and said he would force the industry to bid for government business. Japanese exporters moved lower as well after the yen rose to a 1-month high against the dollar, which reduces exporters' earnings prospects.
