Equities weaker heading into U.S. holiday weekend

Friday, July 1–Jim Wyckoff’s Morning Markets Report

Global stock markets were mostly lower overnight. U.S. stock indexes are pointed toward lower openings when the New York day session begins, on this first trading day of the month and of the second half of 2022. Potential U.S. and/or global economic recessions are on the front burner of the marketplace at present, and that’s bearish for equities. The major central banks have signaled to the marketplace that tamping down inflation is more important than keeping economies growing. “We can see the foundations are being set for recession,” said one market participant in a Dow Jones Newswires story. The Russia-Ukraine war also remains a significant drag on trader and investor risk sentiment.

In overnight news, the Euro zone reported its consumer inflation in June rose to a record high of 8.6%, year-on-year. That compares to a rise of 8.1% in May and expectations for a June rise of 8.4%on the year.

The key outside markets today see Nymex crude oil prices higher and trading around $108.00 a barrel. The U.S. dollar index is higher in early U.S. trading. The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note is fetching 2.954%.

U.S. economic data due for release Friday includes the U.S. manufacturing purchasing managers index (PMI), the ISM report on business manufacturing, the global manufacturing PMI, construction spending and domestic auto industry sales.

GRAINS

U.S. grain futures prices were mixed to firmer in early U.S. pre-market trading. Short covering from recent losses was featured overnight. It will likely be a quieter, pre-holiday trading day in the grains Friday. However, next Tuesday (the July 4 holiday is Monday) is historically a very important trading day in the grain futures markets. Existing price trends can be accelerated or reversed as weather patterns in early July can make dramatic shifts.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I am not a futures broker and do not manage any trading accounts other than my own personal account. It is my goal to point out to you potential trading opportunities. However, it is up to you to: (1) decide when and if you want to initiate any traders and (2) determine the size of any trades you may initiate. Any trades I discuss are hypothetical in nature.

Here is what the Commodity Futures Trading Commission

(CFTC) has said about futures trading (and I agree 100%):

1. Trading commodity futures and options is not for everyone. IT IS A VOLATILE, COMPLEX AND RISKY BUSINESS. Before you invest any money in futures or options contracts, you should consider your financial experience, goals and financial resources, and know how much you can afford to lose above and beyond your initial payment to a broker. You should understand commodity futures and options contracts and your obligations in entering into those contracts. You should understand your exposure to risk and other aspects of trading by thoroughly reviewing the risk disclosure documents your broker is required to give you.
