MARKET COMMENTS
June E-mini S&Ps (ESM16 +0.08%) this morning are up +1.50 points (+0.07%). Thursday's closes: S&P 500 +0.70%, Dow Jones +0.82%, Nasdaq +0.72%. The S&P 500 on Thursday closed little changed. Stocks were undercut by the unexpected -0.8% decline in U.S. Apr capital goods orders non-defense ex-aircraft, weaker than expectations of +0.3% and the third straight monthly decline. There was also some long liquidation pressure and position-squaring ahead of Friday's speech from Fed Chair Yellen that may signal the timing of the next Fed rate hike. Stocks found support from the-10,000 decline in U.S. weekly initial unemployment claims (vs expectations of -3,000 to 275,000) and from the +5.1% m/m increase in U.S. Apr pending home sales, stronger than expectations of +0.7% m/m and the largest monthly increase in 5-1/2 years.
June 10-year T-note prices (ZNM16 -0.06%) this morning are down -1.5 ticks. Thursday's closes: TYM6 +13.50, FVM6 +9.00. Jun T-notes on Thursday closed higher on U.S. economic concerns after Apr capital goods orders non-defense ex-aircraft, a gauge of capital spending, unexpectedly fell -0.8%, the third straight monthly decline. T-notes were also boosted by strong demand for the Treasury's $28 billion auction of 7-year T-notes that had a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.57, above the 12-auction average of 2.49.
The dollar index (DXY00 +0.09%) this morning is up +0.090 (+0.09%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.0015 (-0.13%). USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down-0.12 (-0.11%). Thursday's closes: Dollar Index -0.186 (-0.20%), EUR/USD +0.0039 (+0.35%), USD/JPY -0.43 (-0.39%). The dollar index on Thursday closed lower on the unexpected decline in U.S. Apr capital goods orders non-defense ex-aircraft, a sign of weakness in capital spending that may give the Fed pause on additional rate hikes. The dollar was also undercut by the slide in USD/JPY as weak stocks boosted the safe-haven demand for the yen.
July WTI crude oil (CLN16 -0.81%) this morning is down -46 cents (-0.93%). July gasoline (RBN16 -0.72%) is down -0.0157 (-0.97%). Thursday's closes: CLN6 -0.16 (-0.32%), RBN6 -0.0219 (-1.33%). July crude and gasoline on Thursday closed lower as July crude retreated from a 7-1/2 month high. Crude oil was undercut by profit-taking after the sharp 3-month rally and by the restart of oil-sands facilities in Alberta as wildfire risks abated. Crude oil found underlying support from the weaker dollar.

MARKET COMMENTS
Dec E-mini S&Ps (ESZ15 +0.12%) this morning are up +2.75 points (+0.13%) at a fresh 2-1/4 month high. Thursday's closes: S&P 500 -0.04%, Dow Jones-0.13%, Nasdaq -0.17%. The S&P 500 on Thursday closed slightly lower on the +1.5% increase in U.S. Q3 GDP (weaker than expectations of +1.6%) and the unexpected -2.3% m/m decline in U.S. Sep pending home sales (weaker than expectations of +1.0% m/m and the biggest decline in 1-3/4 years).
Dec 10-year T-notes (ZNZ15 +0.10%) this morning are up +4 ticks. Thursday's closes: TYZ5 -19.00, FVZ5 -8.75. Dec T-notes on Thursday tumbled to a 1-month low and closed lower on negative carryover from Wednesday's post-FOMC meeting statement that left open the possibility of an interest rate increase at the Dec FOMC meeting.
The dollar index (DXY00 -0.30%) this morning is down -0.282 (-0.29%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is up +0.0036 (+0.33%). USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down-0.76 (-0.63%). Thursday's closes: Dollar Index -0.500 (-0.51%), EUR/USD +0.0054 (+0.49%), USD/JPY +0.04 (+0.03%). The dollar index on Thursday closed lower on the weaker-than-expected U.S Q3 GDP and Sep pending home sales reports, which may further delay an Fed interest rate increase. In addition, there was strength in EUR/USD after Eurozone Oct economic confidence unexpectedly rose +0.3 to a 4-1/2 year high of 105.9, and after German Oct CPI rose +0.2% y/y, stronger than expectations of unch y/y, which reduces the chances of the ECB expanding QE.
Dec crude oil (CLZ15 +0.35%) this morning is up +19 cents (+0.41%) and Dec gasoline (RBZ15 +1.09%) is up +0.0188 (+1.40%). Thursday's closes: CLZ5-0.19 (-0.41%), RBZ5 +0.0017 (+0.13%). Dec crude oil and gasoline prices on Thursday settled mixed with Dec gasoline at a 2-week high. Crude oil and gasoline prices received a boost from a weaker dollar and expectations that refinery utilization rates will increase, and refinery demand for crude will climb, now that refineries are nearly finished with their seasonal maintenance. Negative factors included the weaker-than-expected U.S. Q3 GDP and Sep pending home sales reports.
