Oct 12 ,2023

  • Synopsis:

    • Asian markets set for a negative start to Friday trade. Hang Seng futures pointing to steep losses after Nasdaq Golden Dragon index dropped 3%. Nikkei futures also pointing to opening declines as ASX pulls lower in initial trade. S&P 500 futures flat after US markets reversed lower overnight amid rebound in volatility. Australian and New Zealand yields tracking earlier Treasury curve bear steepening. FX markets steady after dollar logged its biggest gain in five weeks. Crude off earlier lows following choppy session in the wake of bearish US inventory data.

    • Yield backup in focus following short-lived bond market rebound. Disappointing Treasury auctions have compounded concerns about supply and influence of rising term premium on long-dated yields. Mixed US CPI showed hotter-than-expected headline print and pickup in services inflation, though core slowed in-line with expectations. Data reinforced Fed's higher-for-longer message and led markets to dial up odds of another rate hike to ~50% from ~30%.

    • China CPI inflation forecast to have ticked higher for a second month after recently turning negative. PPI deflation expected to have moderated further. Would fit with spate of other macro data that have added to signs China's economy is stabilizing. Authorities eyeing further steps to accelerate a recovery following reports this week central government looking at raising deficit target as it eyes boost in infrastructure spending.
