Markets:
USD leads, JPY lags on the dayEuropean equities mostly lower; S&P 500 futures down 0.1%US 10-year yields up 2.9 bps to 4.039%Gold up 0.4% to $3,648.62WTI crude up 1.1% to $63.09Bitcoin up 0.6% to $115,096The ECB was out in droves to clarify their thoughts and views after the policy decision yesterday. It was mostly a rehash of what we've heard from Lagarde though Villeroy stood out in saying that markets "overreacted" and that they could still look to cut rates again.
Broader markets remain relatively muted though in European trading, with the dollar keeping steadier after the mix of US data from the CPI report and weekly initial jobless claims data yesterday. The lean was no doubt more dovish but further downside for the dollar seems to be limited for now, with traders nearly pricing in 75 bps of rate cuts by year-end currently.
The more muted mood also comes as equities are looking more tepid today following the gains in the day before. US futures are lightly changed, with S&P 500 futures down 0.1%. Meanwhile, European indices held higher at the open but the momentum quickly fizzled and most regional indices are now down on the day. For the DAX, it's a bit of a setback as the slight advance this week doesn't look to amount to much as compared to its peers in the region.
In other markets, gold continues to stay underpinned though not really extending gains in the latter stages this week. Price is up 0.4% today to $3,648 as it continues to hover at the highs, with buyers hoping to secure a fourth straight week of gains. The latest one this week looks set to be just under 2% currently. Up, up, and away.
