MORNING BID AMERICAS-Wall Street's development gasp as rates, dollar, oil skid

A take a look at the day ahead in U.S. and worldwide markets from Mike Dolan With a still-powerful purchase the dip impulse in stocks, U.S. markets are having an uncommon bout of jitters about a slowing down economy - with Treasury yields, the dollar and oil rates all swooning over the past 24 hours.

Wall Street's tech-led bounce-ability was on display once again on Monday as the S&P 500 clawed back sharp intra-day losses to close greater on the day.

However the rates, currency and products complex is riffing greatly off additional signs of a sharp U.S. factory downturn.

While a financial stumble at this stage might be a. double-edged sword for near-record high stocks - twinning the. incomes implications with the greater chance of lower Federal. Reserve rates - the push-pull could continue approximately this week's. essential work report at least.

S&P 500 futures are back in the red ahead of Tuesday's open,. with stock losses across most of Asia and Europe today too.

On Monday, the ISM's most current U.S. manufacturing survey showed. a deeper contraction in May activity than forecast, enhancing. similarly stark readings from Chicago's equivalent factory survey. late recently and signs of an erosion of household costs in. April to boot.

The combination has been enough to drag the Atlanta Fed's. real-time GDPNow price quote back down as low as 1.8% - from as. high 3.5% a week ago and more than 4% in mid-May and its lowest. checking out all year.

The week's huge labor market soundings get in progress later. Tuesday with April job openings data.

Full-year Fed rate cut expectations have now crept back. above 40 basis points (bps) - practically 10 bps higher than a week. ago.

Both driven by and feeding off a post-OPEC slide in crude. oil costs - itself a casualty of the manufacturing. anxiety - 10-year Treasury yields fell back to their. lowest in nearly 3 weeks. Oil rates grew out of control further on. Tuesday to their most affordable considering that Feb. 6 - bringing year-on-year. gains back listed below 2% for the first time in 3 months.

And the 25 bps pullback in 10-year yields over the past week. has sufficed to zap the recently re-emerged term premium on. long-term debt holdings back listed below absolutely no again.

ELECTION OUTCOMES

The dollar was also a victim, with its DXY index. being up to the its lowest level in nearly 2 months previously. steadying. The euro briefly hit its greatest because. mid-March ahead of today's widely-expected European Central. Bank rates of interest cut, while dollar/yen recoiled to 155. for the first time because May 16.

Inspecting the dollar's fall more broadly, nevertheless, has actually been. an ongoing slide in Mexico's peso, a recoil in India's. rupee and renewed losses in South Africa's rand. after election results this week in all 3 nations.

The rupee fell dramatically to a three-week low as provisionary. results in India's protracted election revealed Narendra Modi's. BJP-led alliance was well except the super-majority weekend. exit surveys had suggested.

But the genuine hit was to Indian stocks, which tanked. more than 8% in the greatest loss in more than 4 years - after. hopes on Monday of significant reforms and costs in the event of a. two-thirds majority parliamentary were doused and knocked the. market back from record highs.

The peso, meantime, has actually racked up losses of up to 5% since. Friday after Claudia Sheinbaum's presidential election win and. near-super bulk for the left-wing Morena party. The concern. surrounds possible constitutional modifications that might take place as. well as an obvious free rein on public spending.
