Bottom-line: a mixed bag on the economy. won’t dissuade the Fed.
Today’s data dump offered a mixed bag on the economy, showing slumping consumption but a resilient labor market and bounce in manufacturing. That’s not necessarily great for retail stocks, obviously, but at this juncture the figures won’t dissuade the Fed from reacting vigorously to the recent beat on inflation.

Bottom-line: 전세계 물류 및 유통을 대표하는 이 친구가 전망이 어둡다고 밝힘.
FedEx plunged in post-market trading, after withdrawing its forecast and saying preliminary quarterly results fell short. Significantly worsening macroeconomic trends, both in the US and internationally, weighed on global volumes - and the company expects conditions will worsen in the second fiscal quarter. That’s a worrying sign regarding economic growth, and looks likely to pressure stocks across the board.

Yuan Takes Center Stage as Yen Slump Frenzy Recedes. Japanese authorities look to be having at least some success in stalling the yen’s collapse after making it clear 145 is a barrier they don’t want to see crossed. All that’s done is shift the focus of the dollar’s rally to other key currencies — notably the yuan and the Australian dollar.

Bottom-line: 금일 미국 국채 10년물 금리를 2년물 금리가 -44bp 역전하며 중앙은행이 인플레이션 통제를 위한 금리인상 우려가 깊어짐을 암시했고, 2년물 금리 대비 주요 만기별 국채 수익률도 역전폭을 확대하며 경제성장에 대한 우려도 커짐을 보였음. 분석에 따르면 향후 6개월래 10년물 금리와 2년물 금리 역전폭은 1980년대 수준인 -100bp에 이를수도 있다함.
A crucial part of the US Treasury yield curve risks inverting even more to a level last seen in the early 1980s as the economy inches closer to a recession, according to Allspring Global Investments. Two-year yields are likely to surge in the next six months, increasing the inversion with 10-year yields to at least 100 basis points, said Brian Jacobsen, senior investment strategist at the firm. The yield gap at that part of the curve stood at minus 44 basis points on Friday, the deepest in a month, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The sharper increase in two-year note yields relative to longer-maturity Treasury yields underscores increasing concern about how much further the Federal Reserve will have to hike interest rates to tame inflation. Other key parts of the curve are also moving further into negative territory, indicating heightened concerns among investors about a contraction in economic growth.

Futures and stocks were well in the red. US equities haven't yet seen the worse of it, BofA said, adding the "inflation shock ain't over." Treasury yields were mixed, and the dollar extended its rally.
Bottom-line: 바이든은 대만이 공격 받았다면 방어에 가담했을 것이라 답변, 하지만 여전히 하나의 중국을 존중하며 대만의 독립에 대해서는 관여치 않으며 그들의 몫이라 선을 정함.
US military forces would defend Taiwan if there was “an unprecedented attack,” President Joe Biden said, underscoring America’s commitment to the island as Chinese incursions mount near its shores. Biden, speaking in a “60 Minutes” interview that aired Sunday, distanced himself from the question of whether Taiwan is or should be independent, but followed up with a pledge when asked by interviewer Scott Pelley if US forces would “defend the island.”. “Yes, if in fact there was an unprecedented attack,” he replied, according to a trannoscript provided by the broadcaster. Still, he reiterated earlier in the interview that the US’s “One China policy” had not changed. “We agree with what we signed onto a long time ago. And that there’s One China policy, and Taiwan makes their own judgments about their independence. We are not moving -- we’re not encouraging their being independent,” he said. “That’s their decision.”

Bottom-line: 정책 입안자들이 경제를 연착륙 시킨 경우는 거의 없었음에도 불구 시장 참여자들은 이러한 믿음을 가지고 있음. 이는 완전한 판단 착오며, 이에 따라 다가 올 경기침체가 만기가 긴 국채의 매수 강도를 높이게 될 것임.
The global economy is hurtling toward a recession and that makes Treasuries a buy, according to Jupiter Asset Management. Longer-maturity sovereign bonds in both the US and Australia are good value as the market is overly optimistic about the ability of policy makers to engineer a gentle slowdown, said Harry Richards, a fund manager at Jupiter Asset in London. “This idea of a soft landing is a complete fallacy,” he said in an interview. “There are very few historical examples where that’s been achieved.”

Bottom-line: 한 때 피난처로 부각됐던 엔화에 대한 최대 규모의 매도 포지션이 구축되고 있음. 미국의 물가지표 이후 중앙은행의 100bp 금리인상까지 거론되는 가운데 일본 중앙은행의 금리를 유지할 것으로 보이기 때문에 금리 차이에 따른 통화 약세 베팅이 강도를 더하고 있음.
Hedge funds ramped up bearish yen bets to a three-month high on expectations Japan would languish in a world where developed market peers are racing to hike interest rates. Leveraged funds added 18,836 net short contracts last week -- the largest increase since last March, data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission show. The positions came during a turbulent week for markets, driven in part by hotter-than-expected US consumer prices that turbocharged expectations of aggressive Federal Reserve rate hikes while the Bank of Japan is seen standing pat. The yen has tumbled 20% against the dollar this year, the worst-performer among Group-of-10 currencies as the widening yield gap between policy rates in the US and Japan spur investors to ditch the once-haven asset. That spread is set to expand even further this week with the Fed seen potentially considering a full percentage point hike at its policy meeting, while the BOJ is overwhelmingly expected to maintain rock-bottom rates.

Bottom-line: 여러 차례 금리인상에도 불구 잡히지 않는 물가로 인해 100bp의 금리인상론이 대두되면서 정책금리에 민감한 2년물 국채 수익률은 2007년 10월 이후 최고치, 10년물 국채 수익률은 2011년 이후 최고치를 기록함.
The 10-year Treasury yield briefly rose above 3.50% for the first time since 2011 on Monday, with the bond market extending its bearish run ahead of another jumbo rate hike expected this week by the Federal Reserve to bring down inflation. The 10-year yield jumped as much as 6.6 basis points to 3.516%, breaking above a psychological level that held in mid-June. Still the main selling pressure in the Treasury market remained focused on the policy sensitive two-year note with the benchmark rising as much as 9 basis points to 3.96%, marking a fresh high since October 2007. Traders have wagered that another three-quarter point hike at this week’s Fed review is largely a done deal. Talk has emerged of a 100-basis point move to rein in price pressures that have shown little signs of easing even after the recent round of rate increases.

Bottom-line: 예상을 뛰어넘은 물가와 페덱스의 경고가 말하는 현실과 달리 미국 기업의 이익 추정치는 역사점 고점에서 얼어붙어 있음. 이는 올해 -19% 하락한 지수, 긴축적 통화정책, 기업 이익률 하락 우려와 이익 추정치가 마주하기엔 아주 멀리있다고 모건스탠리와 골드만삭스가 공히 주장함.
After a hotter-than-expected inflation print and FedEx Corp.’s shocking profit warning, top Wall Street strategists see mounting risks for US earnings and equity valuations. Both Morgan Stanley’s Michael J. Wilson and Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s David J. Kostin said headwinds to profitability are building, highlighting tighter monetary policy and pressure on company margins as key concerns. According to Wilson, who has been one of the most vocal bears on US stocks, “there is still a long way to go before reality is fairly priced.”. While analysts’ estimates for US company earnings have been moderating recently, they are still near record highs -- despite a 19% slump for the S&P 500 benchmark this year. Revisions “are often glacial,” amid dependence on corporate guidance and due to the relatively defensive nature of the US index, Morgan Stanley’s Wilson wrote, warning of volatility ahead.

US stocks pushed higher in late trading, having fluctuated much of the day as traders geared up for another super-sized Fed hike.
Bottom-line: 아시아 주식을 염가 할인에 구매하려는 투자자들은 여전히 창 밖을 서성이고 있음. 전일 미국 증시 반등. 그리고 달러 강세가 완화 될 경우 이들이 구매에 나설 수 있지만, 만일 미국 중앙은행의 금리인상 이후 침체 위협과 달러 강세가 재점화 될 경우 이들은 창 밖에 더 머물러 있을 것임.
Bargain hunters don’t seem to be showing up for Asia stocks even as the MSCI Asia Pacific Index falls to its lowest level in more than two years. A window may open up for them on Tuesday. US stocks rose, which can help lead their Asia counterparts higher. The Bloomberg Spot Dollar Index fell, which may help ease the downtrend in Asian currencies and the shares denominated in them. Otherwise, a coming Fed rate hike this week will probably be a bearish backdrop. It will raise the odds of a recession in the US and around the world. Higher yields will keep the dollar on its upward path. Then bargain hunters will then have to wait a while longer.
