Top Day Recommendations
There was more unwinding of risk on Monday on carryover selling and margin liquidation from Friday’s rout. All in all, most markets did try to find equilibrium by day’s end with the exception of the NASDAQ which legged even lower after 4:30. Overnight, the British Pound continued to grind higher into that country’s release for Q4 GDP this morning. The US calendar is fairly full with durable goods and consumer confidence slated for release. The rest of the session will be spent watching for further signs of weakness/deterioration in emerging markets and positioning ahead of Wednesday’s FOMC rate decision. To offset a possible run on the rupee, India unexpectedly raised rates last night. Crude oil can reverse its intermediate trend to negative with a lower close on Tuesday. CAD traded nicely into resistance yesterday before heading lower.
