Morning Juice – US Session Prep
Morning, Traders!
It is Monday the 5th of February, here are some things to look out for today.
Sentiment
As new hawkish signals from the Federal Reserve offset persistent optimism about the economy and corporate earnings, US equities were set to slightly retreat from all-time highs. The dollar continued to rise against all Group-of-10 peers following Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s hawkish remarks on CBS 60 Minutes on Sunday. Treasuries continued to decline, with two-year yields hitting a one-month high, as traders reduced bets on the possibility of an interest rate cut in March.
