  • Dow futures rise 0.5%, “terrifying data” hits tonight

    U.S. stock futures climbed ahead of the opening bell on Monday as global markets calmed and traders speculated that diplomatic efforts would help prevent an escalation in the conflict between Iran and Israel.

  • Are there fewer and fewer people wanting the huge amount of U.S. debt issued?

    Recently, the sharp rise in international gold prices has attracted the attention of investors from almost all over the world. Behind the frenzied buying in the gold market, another safe-haven asset, U.S. Treasury bonds, presents a completely different scene of depression. A series of weak performance at U.S. Treasury auctions has stoked investor concerns that the market will struggle to absorb the massive issuance of Treasury debt. In the past week, after weak demand for the US$39 billion 10-year Treasury bond auction, the bond market sell-off triggered by higher-than-expected U.S. CPI in March intensified. Investors also showed little interest in the three-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury auctions. Behind the growing caution among bond market investors is the growing belief that U.S. inflation is not yet fully under control and that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates at multi-decade highs in the coming months or even years. The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note, known as the “anchor of global asset pricing” and the benchmark for pricing borrowing rates from mortgages to corporate loans, closed at around 4.5% last…

  • Will Trump’s “hush money” case go to trial today? Will it change the outcome of the election?

    Monday Eastern Time is another landmark day in American political history: A U.S. court will hear former U.S. President Trump’s “hush money” case, which means he will become the first former U.S. president to face a criminal trial. . Although it is widely believed that the case tried on Monday is the least impactful of the four criminal prosecutions faced by Trump, it is also the only case in which Trump will face a criminal trial before the US election in November this year. If Trump is convicted, not only may he be imprisoned, but it will also make the public doubt his ability to lead the country, affect his support among middle voters, and thus may change the results of the general election in November this year. In addition, since the trial process of the “hush money case” is expected to last 6 to 8 weeks, this means that Trump will have to appear in court four days a week for nearly two months, which may delay his Campaign schedule. For this reason, the Trump campaign dismissed the trial…
