Equity markets continued higher on Tuesday but took a wobble along the way from the news of a missile hitting Poland. I think it is fair to say all of us took a wobble when we read that news, but it seems to have been quickly swept aside. Markets have continued higher this morning. However, the rally is slowing as this morning bond yields are already picking up slightly.
Equities will also take a hit from the mess that is Target (TGT) missing. The stock is down 14% at the time of writing and is completely overshadowing good news from Walmart (WMT) yesterday and Lowe's (LOW) this morning.
ECB and Fed members traded hawk and dove positions as Fed member George spoke of a slowing of rate hikes, according to The Wall Street Journal. Meanwhile, the ECB's Mueller said he favours a substantial December rate hike. Bit of a grinch then!
The currencies remain focused on the US Dollar's demise with the brief bounce from Poland extinguished this morning. The Dollar Index is back to 106 now. Oil remains mired by conflicting thoughts. The China slowdown seems to be winning at the moment as it slips to $86.80. Gold is flat at $1,781, and Bitcoin is lower to $16,600.
European markets are mixed with FTSE and Eurostoxx both up 0.4%, while the Dax is -1%.
US futures are flat for all: Nasdaq, S&P, and Dow, come back later!
