Daily Morning Note – 17 Oct 2019
WEEKLY MARKET OUTLOOK WEBINAR
PHILLIP SUMMARY
Asian stocks were set for a mixed start Thursday after a weak U.S. consumer report triggered a rally in Treasuries. U.S. equities earlier edged lower. Futures were flat in Japan, contracts rose in Hong Kong and pointed lower in Australia, while the S&P 500 Index slid as energy and technology shares retreated. The dollar and Treasury yields slipped after an unexpected drop in retail sales boosted market pricing for an October rate cut by the Federal Reserve as earnings season ramps up.
Elsewhere, the pound strengthened amid signs a Brexit deal may be imminent, and Turkish stocks fell with the lira after the U.S. brought a criminal case against one of the nation’s largest banks. Oil rose 0.3% to $52.97 a barrel, and gold was at $1,490.15 an ounce.
