Current Market Conditions:
European markets remain in a RISK-ON posture late Tuesday. The impetus for trade today was softer than expected U.K. inflation and mixed U.S. data. Equities are up broadly.and bond yields are lower. The EURUSD is testing below 1.3350.

Yields in prime Eurozone fixed income markets have eased. The 10-yr bund is 1.00% -2 bp. The 10-yr 1.00% line remains an obvious market benchmark. Peripheral bond yields are lower.
The U.K.10-yr gilt yield is 2.40% -3bp. A +25bp BOE rate hike is mow expected for November 2014 or February 2015, depending on data.

U.S.10-yr yield is 2.40%, +1bp. The major focus is the Yellen speech Friday in Jackson Hole. The psychological pivot has become 2.40%.

Far East equities closed higher. Bourses in Europe are ending up. U.S. share futures are higher.

The heat map color scheme of interest rates reflects yields. This aligns all the colors in the chart to reflect risk-on (green) and risk-off(red).

HIGH IMPACT NEWS: GB- BOE Minutes, US- Weekly Mortgages, Weekly Crude, Fed Minutes

Wednesday sees the latest Bank of England and Fed policy minutes.

July U.S. Housing Starts rebounded by a lot more than expected when they were released on Tuesday. Analysts credited multi-family dwellings for the surge. The impact of the data was muted by softer than expected July CPI data. The data suggest that the Fed is not behind the curve in managing inflation.

U.K. July inflation data were softer than expected and if sustained would raise doubts about a November policy tightening by the Bank of England. Gilt yields and the GBP have have fallen on the news.
