Equity markets remain on the bullish path but are treading cautiously. For the most part, earnings before the open continue the positive trend, but Microsoft (MSFT), Meta Platforms (META) and Alphabet (GOOGL) loom large after the close. Those companies will be the key event of the day.
Interest rates remain calm and slightly doveish still, which is helping equities. The combination of a dovish WSJ article, falling yields and strong earnings can push this rally further once big tech earnings are out of the way. Energy prices continue to fall in the face of warm weather, full EU storage levels and fears for global growth. Oil is lower to $83.75. The dollar is more or less as it was, remaining flat at 112 for the Dollar Index. Bitcoin trades at $19,300, and Gold is also lower at $1,641.
European markets are lower: Eurostoxx -0.2%, FTSE and Dax both -1%
US futures are lower: Nasdaq is flat, Dow and S&P both -0.4%
