Top Day Recommendations
Just Producer Price Index and the Core rate (minus food and energy) at 8:30. Stocks languished again yesterday. A second day of realization that the budget agreement in Washington could trigger the taper as early as next week. Metals had that delayed reaction mentioned the day before yesterday as gold slammed into support at 1225.
Crude could reverse its intermediate trend today with a lower close. Some are pointing to a head and shoulders formation in stocks.
Aussie dollar drop most precipitous in 28 years as BOA says that it’s more comfortable with the Aussie trading at 85 than at 90. British/Loonie spread is worth looking at. NOB should reflect curve steepening.
