StreetAccount Summary - Asian Market Preview: Nikkei Futures (0.12%), Hang Seng Futures +0.55%, ASX SPI 200 (1.13%), S&P Futures (0.05%)

Feb 05 ,2024

  • Synopsis:

    • Asian markets set for mixed start to Monday trade. Hang Seng futures pointing to opening gains, while Nikkei futures marginally lower. ASX selling off in initial trade. US contracts flat afterhours following negative Monday session. Australian bonds under pressure following another backup in Treasury yields. FX markets steady after dollar index broke through to mid-November high. Gold a touch lower. Crude flat.

    • Bond market selloff attributed to repricing of Fed rate path with futures now pricing in ~105 bp of rate cuts in 2024 (vs ~140 bp prior to nonfarm payrolls data). Hotter-than-expected US macro data, and Fed caution on rate cuts prompting thoughts rate repricing has further to go amid risk Fed will maintain December projection of year-end funds rate of ~4.60% (implying 75 bp of cuts).

    • China imposed further curbs on share sales following heightened volatility over recent days. Previous market support pledges and rules restricting shares for short sales have failed to cauterize an equity market rout that brought mainland indexes to five-year lows. Traders have pointed to technicals and forced liquidation among factors fueling market selloff, though also suggestions of contrarian signaling from extreme pessimism and deeply oversold conditions.

    • RBA expected to leave cash rate unchanged at 4.35% today. Main interest will be extent to which RBA softens its mildly hawkish bias after Q4 CPI undershot its year-end projections. Some economists brought forward expected timing of first rate cut to Q3 while markets currently pricing in two rate cuts by end-2024. Meeting will be first under new board structure that will include votes on rate decision, as well as post-meeting press conference by Governor Bullock.
