Here is what you need to know on Monday, June 14:
The Nasdaq is waking up to the realization that it has been missing out on the party and looks set to hit fresh record highs on Monday. The setup is perfect with yields continuing to slump and the VIX also taking a snooze. The S&P 500 set a new high watermark on Friday and looks to set more in the coming days as the environment remains positive for equities. Risk will be off for this week or at least on hold until Fed day on Wednesday. Rumours are beginning to circulate that taper talk will be on the Fed agenda this week, months ahead of schedule. Bitcoin is bouncy after Elon Musk says Tesla will consider allowing it once miners reach 50% clean energy usage. Crypto shares reacted accordingly with COIN, RIOT, MARA and others all up strongly in the premarket.
President Biden continues his summer tour of Europe with a stop at the NATO Summit in Brussels. President Biden attended the G7 meeting at an English seaside resort in Cornwall and is to meet President Putin in Geneva on Wednesday.
The dollar is asleep versus the euro with the pair unchanged at 1.2110. Oil is still climbing as we enter US driving season at $71.60, Gold is lower at $1,847, and Bitcoin is nearing $40,000. Yields continue south, and the VIX is at nearly 15.
European markets hit record highs earlier, as of writing the Dax is up 0.2%, FTSE is flat, and the EuroStoxx -0.1%.
US futures are also quiet. The Nasdaq is +0.2%, while Dow and S&P are flat.
