Today's Fairy Tale

If you�re trying to persuade children or grandchildren to save rather than ordering them to do so, you could start with some simple numbers. If you take $5,000 in savings from a few summer jobs and put it in a Roth at age 19, it will grow to $52,006 by the time you�re 67 if it grows at a 5 percent annual rate. Wait until 25 to start with that same $5,000, however, and the balance at age 67 is just $38,808.

Things get more interesting, however, if you pledge that once a Roth is open, you�ll spend a few years helping a young adult max out the $5,500 contribution each year as long as that person earns the $5,500 necessary to make a deposit of that size. If that 19-year-old starts with $5,000 and makes the maximum contribution each year until 67, the ending balance is $1,164,985 if it grows at a 5 percent annual clip.

We have been warning for a while that not only is the high-yield credit market sending a warning but that it is critical for equity investors to comprehend why this is such bad news.

This week has seen exuberant equity markets start to catch down to high-yield's warning but today's surge in HY credit spreads to six month wides is a rude awakening.

Between outflows, a huge wall of maturities (and no Fed liquidity), and corporate leverage, the reach-for-yield just became an up-in-quality scramble. HY spreads are over 70bps wider than cycle tights implying the S&P 500 should be around 1775. ZH

Equity markets are off their lows after a miss on the NFP report today. The data put to bed speculation about an early rate hike. The data suggest that recent sluggish growth will persist. Some traders are talking about a "Goldilocks" market again. I don't see it! EURUSD is still pivoting the 1.3400 line on  weak Eurozone.



  • Yields in prime Eurozone fixed income markets are lower following  U.S. data. Yields on the European periphery remain up. EZ 10-yr 1.14%, -4bp.
  • The U.K.10-yr gilt  yield is 2.56%  -6bp. UK Mfg PMI data were a disappointment  +25bp BOE rate hike is still seen by yearend.
  • U.S.10-yr yield is 2.51%, -5bp. The psychological pivot remains 2.50%
  • Far East equities closed lower. Bourses in Europe are ending weaker. .U.S. share futures are weaker.

    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).

In the midst of the shifting sands of geopolitics.... plans are made but sometimes they go pear shaped. It still looks like there are plans to drag Russia into an open military confrontation but the casus belli might need to be tweeked. The chinless deviants running Europe haven't so much as said boo (I wonder what their swiss bank accounts look like). But still plans go wrong and information and analysis can't always be blocked. This saga is far from over. The Bay of Tonkin comes to mind. And it does nothing to enhance the status of the world's international reserve currency. In a FIAT money system without status you have nothing.

July 2014 U.S. ISM Manufacturing PMI

Today, we find more of the same, when we learn that while the headline ISM of 57.1, seemingly the highest since April 2011 and driven by the all important New Orders print of 63.4 which was the highest since December 2013, was really a figment of seasonal adjustment.

The table below shows how the ISM takes its unadjusted, actual data, based on respondents saying whether the data is "better", "same" or "worse", and applies a seasonal adjustment factor, getting the adjusted number.

sf, eurusd is an interesting one. heard a lot about base building but no one is sticking their neck out yet. you can argue market is very short and few left to sell but crosses have been supporting this one. so while you can argue for a bounce you can also argue for a fall in this pair as cross rallies has pulled the basket as a whole higher. time will tell.
reaction to nfp will be interesting. they should still sell a miss as long as its c. 200k. and as long at 13445/50 caps. you can see market buying dollar dips until we get a few misses in a row. probably needs a +260 nfp to test barrier at 3350. AHE take on added importance today as well. if we dont get higher than 0.2 might be difficult to sustain dollar gains into close.

AceTrader Aug 1: Intra-Day Market Moving News and Views EUR/USD
Reply   

01 Aug 2014 08:00GMT

EUR/USD - ... Euro languishes abv Wed's 8-1/2 month trough of 1.3366 in European morning. Price showed muted reaction to release of Markit Jul mfg PMI fm Italy, France, Germany & the EZ. The actual readings came in below market consensus (except France, Jul was 47.8 vs forecast of 47.8).

The lack of intra-day price swings in early European morning suggest further range trading wud continue as traders are keeping their powder dry until release of the key U.S. payrolls data at 12:30GMT. Offers are reported at 1.3495/05 with some stops abv there, then more offers are tipped at 1.3420/30. On the downside, some bids are touted at 1.3370-60 with continued market chatter of an option barrier at 1.3350, then stops are reported below there. Until the U.S. jobs report is out, selling euro on recovery is the way to go.

Earlier, with release of Markit Mfg PMI of several major countries in the EZ due out shortly, Reuters reported that inflationary pressures in the euro zone have risen to a 27-month high, suggesting the ECB's efforts to fend off deflation are working, an indicator designed to predict cyclical trends showed on Fri.

The Eurozone Future Inflation Gauge (EZFIG), published by the Economic Cycle Research Institute (ECRI), rose to 96.7 in June from April's 96.2.

Annual inflation in the euro zone fell to just 0.4% in Jul, its lowest since the height of the financial crisis in 2009, official data showed on Thur. Therefore, most traders wud take this reading with a pinch of salt !

Agree or Disagree? USDJPY
Reply   
Im looking more at S&P futures which have turned south in the past hour or so. (-8.5).

The USDJPY is trading about flat and is showing no correlation to the S&P.

I'm wondering if all this hysteria about a Fed tightening being fueled by the script readers in the media has gotten completely out of hand. They have become another version of the Weather Channel.

Personally, I feel a 25 to 100bp increase in the cost of money (from zero) over the next two years is not going to change a thing.

thanks Red - it is just the GBP model taking profit from this morning - based purely on the typical range we see basically.

overall it has only been marginally profitable due to getting stopped a lot so can't argue with some decent points on the day.

the only thing we have on the books now is some eurusd long... everything else has been executed in the CAD and x CAD stuff.

PAR if 1894-1900 doesnt yield a bounce to abv 1932 then we can look at a lot lower.
we trade in a market where moves are hyper accelerated. i refer back to goldmans statement a few months back that when the bond market starts pricing in a rate rise, historically it tends to happen (the bulk) of the move, over a period of a couple of months. thats a big move in a short space of time. i didnt see any reference to stocks, but possibly you could work a similar time frame.

Equity markets have sold off following the U.S. lead from yesterday. Markets remain in a mixed risk posture as credit markets in the U.S. have already priced in a Fed policy tightening. There is now a lot of room for disappointment on weaker than U.S,  jobs data in the months ahead  EURUSD is holding just below 1.3400.



  • Yields in prime Eurozone fixed income markets are steady to higher. Yields on the European periphery are up. EZ 10-yr 1.18%, 0bp.
  • The U.K.10-yr gilt  yield is 2.62%  0bp. A +25bp BOE rate hike is still expected by yearend.
  • U.S.10-yr yield is 2.58%, +2bp. The psychological pivot remains 2.50%
  • Far East equities closed lower. Bourses in Europe are weaker. . U.S. share futures are weaker.

    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).

Intra-Day Market Moving New and Views

01 Aug 2014 02:22GMT

China July's final HSBC Mfg PMI came in at 51.7 vs previous preliminary reading of 52.0.

Reuters reported China's vast factory sector posted its strongest growth in 18 months in Jul as new orders surged to multi-month highs, a private survey showed on Friday, adding to signs the economy is regaining momentum after a flurry of govt. stimulus measures.

The HSBC/Markit China manufacturing PMI climbed to 51.7 last month, up from June's 50.7 but slightly below a preliminary reading of 52.

Still, July's reading is the best outcome since January 2013. Output and total new orders both rose at the strongest rates since March 2013, while new export work increased at the 2nd-fastest pace in more than 3-1/2 years.

Friday will see the release of China�s NBS manufacturing PMI, Australia�s PPI, Japan�s manufacturing PMI, China HSBC manufacturing PMI final, U.S. unemployment rate, Markit/CIPS manufacturing PMI, unemployment rate, PCE price index, private payrolls and non-farm payrolls, University of Michigan consumer confidence and ISM manufacturing PMI.

Is it safe?

The stock market ended July with the sharpest decline in the Standard & Poor�s 500-stock index since April, while the Dow Jones industrial index fell more than 300 points, enough to eliminate all of its gains for the year.
The reasons for the losses on Thursday were not entirely clear.

�I think it�s healthy and normal at this stage of the monetary cycle,� said Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist at Charles Schwab. �After the run-up in the market we�ve had until now, I�d expect that we�d have a real correction. Whether this is the beginning of one, I don�t know, but I think it would be very healthy to have one. And a decline like this one? It�s O.K. to have it.�

Sometimes market declines are simply irrational, even if they�re not unexpected, said Richard Bernstein, formerly the chief investment strategist at Merrill Lynch and now the proprietor of his own firm and a fund manager for Eaton Vance.

�People have heard a lot about the possibility that we�re on the precipice of a correction, and they�ve gotten a little jittery,� he said. �That happens sometimes when there�s a confluence of geopolitical and economic factors, and people are on edge. But I�ve been bullish and I remain so. We�ll just have to find out in the weeks ahead who�s right and who�s wrong.
