    • Bund yields lower in opening trade, Equity markets mostly higher in Asia.
    • Stock markets in Asia remained underpinned by hopes of a US-Sino trade deal.
    • Wall Street closed higher, helped by positive earnings at Walmart Inc. Fresh.
    • President Trump meanwhile suggested that March 1 tariff deadline is not cast in stone, so there is hope that further tariffs can be avoided.
    • Japan’s exports fell 8.4% in January, while imports declined 0.6% y/y. The contraction in exports seems consistent with escalating concern that Japan’s export sector will be dented this year by global trade frictions and the slowing in China’s economy.

    MACRO EVENTS & NEWS OF 4th March 2019.


    [​IMG]

    FX News Today
    • A report in the WSJ over the weekend that the US and China closing in on a deal, and that Trump and Xi are to meet on March 27, pushed equities up although nothing is confirmed by Beijing or Washington.
    • USA500 closed over 2800 Friday and holds gains this morning at 2813, while Nikkei closed up 1%. USD holds gains.
    • Oil big down day on Friday with a move to 55.65 from 57.50. Gold closed the week under 1300.00, with trades down at 1294.
    • Big policy week ahead, with ECB, RBA, and BoC interest rate decisions, as well as NFPs on Friday.
    • The Brexit process will remain a key focus for markets this week. Political developments in the UK last week reduced the odds for a no-deal Brexit scenario, although it has always be our conviction that this is a low-risk possibility as the UK parliament will have final say and, given the numbers and strength of view of most MPs, it is hard to conceive that a no deal would be allow to happen.
