The Week Ahead In The Global Financial Markets

From The Desk Of Joe Rios

We are now just about halfway through corporate earnings season with most companies beating forecasts. None the less, the S&P 500 closed the week flat with 0.0% change. The US Treasury 10 Year Note also ended the week with 0.0% change as both benchmarks continued to consolidate.

The US Dollar did see positive rotation flows gaining 0.7% while most foreign currencies finished the week lower. In the commodity markets Natural Gas was the volatility leader closing the week lower by

-4.3%. The Material Sector strengthened along with Copper rising 2.0% following Europe and China’s strong PMI data. In the week ahead I will continue to focus at the stock indices as corporate earnings season continues. Will the upcoming scheduled earnings data surprise Wall Street and help the S&P 500 breakout or will it drive prices lower from the recent double top technical pattern? Will it help push other risk assets out of the recent consolidation patterns? Or will it be the FOMC statement on Wednesday or Friday’s Nonfarm Employment Change data?
