Daily US Opening News And Market Re-Cap: July 28

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/28/2011 08:16 -0400

Markets witnessed a risk-averse sentiment in early European trade following lack-lustre European corporate earning releases from the likes of Credit Suisse, Telefonica, Siemens, France Telecom, among many others, together with concerns surrounding a lack of progress in the US debt negotiations. Renewed market talk that the Italian finance minister, Tremonti, is set to resign further dented sentiment, although the rumour was later denied by the Italian government. The negative news flow resulted in European equities to trade lower, whereas Bunds and Gilts traded higher, with particular widening seen in the Italian/German 10-year government bond yield spread. Bunds did come under some pressure following market talk of the ECB buying in Eurozone peripheral debt, however that failed to provide any sustainable appetite for risk. Elsewhere, strength was observed in safe-haven currencies including USD, CHF and JPY, whereas the EUR traded under pressure for a vast majority of the European session. Moving into the North American open, markets look ahead to key economic data from the US in the form of jobless claims, and pending home sales reports. In fixed income, USD 29bln 7-year Note auction is also scheduled for later in the session. Markets will also keep a close eye on US corporate earnings from the likes of ExxonMobil.
