Marcus Today Pre-Market Podcast – Wednesday 26th April
US equities finished lower overnight, ending near worst levels. Treasury yields fell as disappointing earnings, soft economic data, and plunging deposits at the regional Republic Bank fuelled recession fears sending the market into safe-haven assets. Safe haven USD and Yen rose as market sentiment turned. 10Y treasury fell by the largest amount since March, while short-term yields climbed as the market weighs banking sector stability and the possibility of a recession with worries concerning the US debt ceiling. European shares fell, amid a round of disappointing earnings; the STOXX 600 is tracking monthly gains of over 2%. Dow Jones down 345 points (-1.02%), closing near session lows. Dow down 350 at worst. S&P 500 down 1.58%. NASDAQ down 1.98%. VIX Volatility Index up 11.1%. In Europe, Stoxx 50 -0.5% FTSE -0.3% CAC -0.6% DAX +0.1%. SPI Futures are down 38 points (-0.52%).
