Shares traded mostly higher in Europe following a positive start on Wall Street on Tuesday as traders returned from the three-day weekend to some upbeat earnings from Goldman Sachs and Bank of America to send the S&P 500 up 0.81% and the Nasdaq +1.53%. Janet Yellen’s Senate hearing confirmed that that stimulus is the order of the day and ‘fiscal sanity’ will be discussed, but not yet. She stressed that worrying about battered finances and raising taxes – the ‘who’s going to pay for it all’ question that MMT’ers say we should not be asking – would be for another day once the economy has recovered. By some measures that could mean years, but it underlines that the new administration is pushing for maximum relief and a period of fiscal expansion. I doubt she’ll ever admit to fully embracing MMT, but we in many ways already there.

Unanue made the comments on “Mornings with Maria” one day after Treasury Secretary nominee Janet Yellen’s Senate testimony on Capitol Hill where she reportedly said President-elect Joe Biden and his economic team are currently focused on providing quick relief for American families hit by the coronavirus pandemic and its economic fallout, not raising taxes.

GOLD, CRUDE OIL PRICE OUTLOOK:
Gold prices are working on a three-day rally to US$ 1,850, up nearly 2.5% from Monday’s lows
WTI crude oil prices jumped 2% on Yellen’s push for fiscal stimulus, which raises reflation hopes
A weakening US Dollar and stimulus hopes may continue to support commodity prices
Gold prices climbed for a third day as the US Dollar fell alongside Treasury yields, alleviating pressure on precious metal prices. Last night, US Treasury Secretary nominee Janet Yellen boosted market confidence by showing her support for Biden’s US$ 1.9 trillion stimulus package in the Senate confirmation hearing. Yellen’s comments revitalized hopes for reflation and brightened the prospects for economic recovery, sending risk assets broadly higher alongside gold and crude oil prices.
