Asian equities mostly higher - MarketPulse

Asian equities mostly higher
Asia markets higher on China Trade Balance
Having suffered yesterday, Asian equities are mainly green today, with yesterday’s unloved markets in favour today. That suggests that choppy range trading and tail-chasing continue to rule the roost as equity markets, ex the FOMO-gnomes of Wall Street, search for a directional answer to sink its teeth into. Wall Street went nowhere overnight, as the US 10-year note auction passing without incident.
Overnight, some long-covering hit Wall Street on a slow news day, with the S&P 500 unchanged, the Nasdaq losing 0.36%, and the Dow Jones easing by 0.16%. In Asia, the range-trade theme continues, with futures on all three creeping higher by just over 0.05% in quiet trading.

Wall Street climbs but Asia hesitates
US equities had a mighty session overnight, powered by ISM and Non-Farm Payroll recovery hopes. However, Asia’s markets, less the sheep followers of Australia, have adopted a much more cautious tone. That is a pattern that repeated itself last week, where strong rallies on Wall Street were not replicated in Asia. Overnight the S&P 500 rose 1.44%, the Nasdaq rallied by 1.67%, and the Dow Jones finished 1.12% higher.
The schizophrenic behaviour of Wall Street last week, which spent it chasing its tail on a day-to-day basis, could be part of the reason. Doubts over the longevity of the rally overnight are as good a reason to be cautious as any. It could also be that investors globally, including Asia, are following the noise and concentrating on the seemingly effortless gains available on Wall Street. US index futures have also edged lower this morning after yesterday’s rally. Nagging Covid-19 fears in China, South Korea and Japan, mainly the latter two, may also be sapping investors’ nerves.

Asian markets ease, dollar firm as FOMC looms
Asian equities have eased over today’s session as investors reduce exposure ahead of tonight’s FOMC. Not helping sentiment was Blinken comments about Chinese aggression, and that, along with China’s ongoing tech crackdown, has made mainland exchanges today’s underperformers.
The overnight session was nondescript, with the S&P 500 edging 0.16% lower, the Nasdaq rising just 0.90%, and the Dow Jones retreating 0.39%. US index futures have edged lower with their Asian peers this morning.
The Nikkei 225 has 0.17% lower, while Samsung’s warning on semi-conductor shortages has seen the Kospi fall by 1.05%. In mainland China, the Shanghai Composite has fallen 0.50%, with the CSI 200 down 0.25%. Both indexes were sharply lower a short time ago, suggesting that China’s “national team” may be in supporting prices at the moment.

Inflation nerves return - MarketPulse

Inflation nerves return
US yields rise, boost dollar
The inflation genie I mentioned on Friday found life rather uncomfortable in its bottle, it appears, as US yields shot higher on Friday. Notably, the long end of the curve steepened markedly, and for all the noise surrounding the rise in 10-year yields, the 30-years was where the real action was.
That was enough to unwind the intra-day rallies on Wall Street, with the rotation into cyclicals at the expense of technology very much in evidence again. That left the Dow Jones higher, the Nasdaq stretchered of injured once again, and the S&P 500 left somewhere in the middle.

US bond tantrum sends equities reeling
A not dovish enough Jerome Powell overnight saw the bond tantrum return, throwing more gloom on an already wobbling equity market. The S&P 500 by 1.34%, the tech-heavy Nasdaq plunged by 2.11%, and the previously steady Dow Jones retreated by 1.11%. US index futures continue lower in Asia, down by between 0.35% and 0.50%.
The picture is a little more mixed in Asia, but still mostly negative. The Nikkei 225 has fallen by 1.50%, with the Kospi down 0.85%. In China, though, markets have reversed an initial selloff and are now in the green. The Shanghai Composite and CSI 300 are both 0.10% higher now, although the Hang Seng is down 1.05%. The China outperformance can be laid at the National People’s Congress door, which has stated it wishes to explore joining the RCEP and deepen trade with South Korea, an important economic player in the region. It is also expected to announce massive investments to become more technology-independent.

Asian equities move modestly higher
US markets played catchup to the Asian rally overnight, posting very impressive results overnight. The S&P 500 rose by 2.38%, the Nasdaq leapt 3.01%, and the Dow Jones rallied by 1.95%. Some profit-taking is evident in Asia, though, with the markets taking a breather. The futures on all three indexes lower by between 0.20% and 0.30%.
Having led the world higher yesterday, by virtue of being the first region to open, Asian markets are only recording modest gains today, not helped by the US index futures also easing slightly. The exceptions are South Korea and Taiwan, who were on holiday yesterday. The Kospi has jumped by 1.86%, and Taipei is 1.60% higher. On Tuesday, South Korean and Taiwan Manufacturing PMI’s rose further into expansionary territory.

Asian equities ease with Wall Street
Wall Street fell again overnight, as bullish momentum temporarily ebbs, spurring investors to lighten risk. The S&P 500 lost 0.44%, the Nasdaq slipped 0.72%, and the Dow Jones eased by 0.44%. US index futures have continued a downward trajectory this morning, with all three major indices lower by around 0.35%.
The US malaise has spilt over into Asian markets, which are tracking lower today. The Nikkei 225 has fallen 1.25%, with the Kospi down 0.70%. Mainland China’s Shanghai Composite is 0.60% lower, with the CSI 300 falling 0.75%. The Hang Seng is down 1.05%.
Much the same pattern is repeating regionally, with Singapore down 1.30%, Thailand down 0.70% with Jakarta 0.05% lower. Only Malaysia is bucking the trend, climbing 0.15%. Australian markets are enduring a tough day, with the ASX 200 and All Ordinaries down 1.40%.
