MARKET COMMENTS
September E-mini S&Ps this morning are down -3.75 points (-0.18%). Thursday's closes: S&P 500 +0.31%, Dow Jones +0.53%, Nasdaq +0.21%. The S&P 500 on Thursday rebounded from a 3-week low and closed higher on reduced Brexit concerns after the murder of a UK lawmaker fueled speculation that UK voters will vote to remain in the EU. Stocks were also boosted by stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data after the +6.5 point increase in the Jun Philadelphia Fed business outlook survey to 4.7 (stronger than expectations of +2.8 to 1.0) and the +2 point gain in the Jun NAHB housing market index to 60 (stronger than expectations of +1 to 59 and a 5-month high). Stocks were undercut by the slide in European stocks to a 4-month low on concern about a possible UK "Leave" vote next Thursday. Stocks were also undercut by the unexpected +13,000 increase in weekly initial unemployment claims.
Sep 10-year T-note prices this morning are down -11 ticks. Thursday's closes: TYU6 +6.50, FVU6 +3.50. Sep T-notes on Thursday rallied to a new contract high and closed higher on increased safe-haven demand from a slide in global stocks and on carryover support from rallies in 10-year German bunds and Japanese 10-year JGBs to all-time highs. T-notes were also boosted by reduced inflation expectations as the 10-year T-note breakeven inflation rate fell to a 3-1/4 month low.
The dollar index this morning is down -0.160 (-0.17%). EUR/USD is up +0.0037 (+0.33%). USD/JPY is unchanged. Thursday's closes: Dollar Index-0.318 (-0.33%), EUR/USD -0.0023 (-0.20%), USD/JPY -1.64 (-1.55%). The dollar index on Thursday climbed to a 1-1/2 week high but fell back and closed lower. The dollar was undercut by a recovery in GBP/USD from a 2-month low after the murder of a UK lawmaker fueled speculation that UK voters will vote to remain in the EU. The dollar was also undercut as USD/JPY plunged to a 1-3/4 year low after the BOJ refrained from expanding stimulus. The dollar found support on weakness in EUR/USD on Brexit fears and on stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data that included the Jun NAHB housing market index and the Jun Philadelphia Fed index.
July WTI crude oil this morning is up +71 cents (+1.54%). July gasoline is up +0.0303 (+2.07%). Thursday's closes: CLN6 -1.85 (-3.85%), RBN6 -0.0329(-2.19%). July crude oil and gasoline prices on Thursday closed lower with July crude at a 1-month low and July gasoline at a 5-week low. Crude oil prices were undercut by concern about a possible UK Leave Brexit vote next week and the the fall in the S&P 500 to a 3-week low, which undercuts optimism about the economy and energy demand.

Jun E-mini S&Ps (ESM16 -0.66%) are down -0.78% and European stocks are down -2.15% at a 5-week low on concern that global economic growth is faltering. German Feb factory orders unexpectedly fell by the most in 6 months and IMF Managing Director Lagarde said the world economy's outlook has dimmed. A -0.22% fall in crude oil prices to a 1-month low has also undercut energy producing stocks. The slide in stocks has boosted demand for government debt as the yield on the 10-year German bund has tumbled to an 11-1/4 month low of 0.081%. Asian stocks settled mostly lower: Japan-2.42%, Hong Kong -1.57%, China up+1.45%, Taiwan closed for holiday, Australia -1.42%, Singapore -1.21%, South Korea -1.02%, India -2.03%. The plunge in USD/JPY to a 17-month low fueled selling in Japanese exporters as Japan's Nikkei Stock Index fell to a 1-1/2 month low. Chinese stocks bucked the trend as the Shanghai Composite rallied to a 2-1/2 month high on optimism that government efforts to spur economic growth are kicking in.
The dollar index (DXY00 +0.28%) is up +0.21%. EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.25%. USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down -0.92% to a 17-month low.
Jun T-note prices (ZNM16 +0.31%) are up +15 ticks at a 5-week high on carryover support from a rally in German bunds to an 11-1/4 month low.
IMF Managing Director Lagarde said the world economy's outlook has dimmed over the last 6 months, exacerbated by China's slowdown, lower commodity prices and the risk of financial tightening in many countries. This suggests the IMF will downgrade its growth forecast when it releases its updated World Economic Outlook on Apr 12.
Chicago Fed President Evans said "I believe it will be appropriate to make two more rate hike this year and then follow a very gradual path of rate increases thereafter." Evans projects U.S. 2016 economic growth at 2.0-2.5% and that the U.S. consumer is the "linchpin" behind the outlook.
