Marketmind: Hunker down, it’s going to be one of those days

October 6, 2021 by David Barret Leave a Comment

October 6, 2021

A look at the day ahead from Dhara Ranasinghe.

U.S. and European bond yields are up sharply, stock market futures are deep in the red and oil is holding near multi-year highs. Yes, it’s going to be one of those days.

Inflation angst continues to grip world markets with U.S. and German bond yields rising to their highest in over three months.

A 25 basis point rate hike from New Zealand’s central bank, although long anticipated, is a reminder to edgy markets that central banks are now willing to take back post-pandemic stimulus as inflation picks up.

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand lifted its key rate to 0.5%, delivering its first rate hike in seven years. And it flagged further tightening ahead.

One of the biggest sources of unease at the moment is the relentless rise in energy prices — U.S. crude rose to its highest level since 2014, Brent crude is near three-year highs while European gas prices surged past 100 euros per megawatt hour on Tuesday, a new record.

And while the bond selloff rages, Britain is at the heart of the storm, as investors fret that a toxic mix of high inflation and weak growth is now a key risk.

So while benchmark German and U.S. 10-year bond yields rose 3-5 basis points each in Tuesday’s selloff, UK gilt yields jumped 8 bps. Deutsche Bank analysts point out this incredible stat — inflation-linked gilts now imply a 7% annual inflation print by April 2022.

Note, PepsiCo Inc said on Tuesday it would likely raise prices again early next year, as it looks to overcome supply-chain challenges that include everything from a shortage of Gatorade bottles to a lack of truck drivers.

Who said inflation was transitory?

Elsewhere, U.S. President Joe Biden said on Tuesday that his Democrats might make an exception to a U.S. Senate rule to allow them to extend the government’s borrowing authority without Republican help. That could head off an economically crippling debt default.

Key developments that should provide more direction to markets on Wednesday:

– New Japan PM Kishida off to rocky start in polling

– German industrial orders fell more than expected in August on weaker demand from abroad

– Facebook ‘operating in the shadows’ says whistleblower as U.S. lawmakers demand probes

– Bayer AG shares up 2.5% pre-market after firm won first trial over Roundup weedkiller

– Poland, Iceland central bank meets

– German industrial orders fall more than expected in Aug

– Manufacturing PMIs

– Euro zone retail sales

– US ADP payrolls

– Atlanta Fed’s Rafael Bostic, ECB’s Centeno speaks
