Daily Risk On/Off Heat Map

Current Market Conditions:
Markets have moved from an early  MIXED RISK posture to a RISK-OFF positioning. I am seeing prime bond yields falling as equities sell-off  As of the European close U.S. shares are trying to stabilize. The EURUSD has been trading lower on the day.

  • Yields in prime Eurozone fixed income markets are sharply lower. The 10-yr bund is 0.906%,  -4.3% bp. Peripheral bond yields are lower.
  • The U.K.10-yr gilt yield is 2.368% -5.9 bp. BOE Gov Carney has continued to signal a Spring 2015 rate hike.
  • U.S.10-yr yield is 2.429%, -7.7bp.The Psychological focus remains on 2.50%.
  • Far East equities were mixed. China was closed for a holiday. Bourses in Europe are closing lower. U.S. shares futures are lower..

    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).
