Top Day Market News
Both retails sales and July PPI come in better than expected. Initial reflex to this is higher equities and lower bonds. Bonds have pierced daily technical support of 148.03. PPI is higher due to grain prices. Retail sales are much stronger after three consecutive months of decline. The Fed won’t be happy worth the PPI number. Currency trade is muted so far today, typical for August with the exception of the Yen. These numbers are not helpful to those looking for further stimulus by the Fed.
