  • Markets on the rise in waiting on US inflation

    Markets on the rise in waiting on US inflation
    Jul 8 2024
    Eurizon Weekly 08.07.24 The mix of events of a political nature and of macro data was at the heart of market dynamics. In Europe, the elections in France and in the United Kingdom captured the attention of the markets, whereas US macro data were once again decisive in outlining the macro scenario on which the Fed will make its future decisions. In the UK, the elections went as expected, with a landslide victory for Labour, called to relaunch the country’s economy. In France, on the other hand, the elections failed to assign an absolute parliamentary majority to any of the parties, therefore a government coalition will have to be formed.
    This week, focus will be on the US inflation reading, due out on Thursday, after the release of European inflation data in the past few days. Stefano Cucchi of Eurizon’s Macro Research & Product Specialist team takes a closer look. Audio recorded on 08 July 2024

    Eurizon’s positioning for July 2024
    Jul 3 2024
    The baseline scenario combines stable growth in the US with a gradual reacceleration in the Eurozone. Inflation seems to be stabilising at close to the ECB’s target rate, but in the United States is still above the Fed’s target. The French elections are a source of temporary volatility.

    Markets cautious, due to politics and macro data
    Jun 24 2024
    Eurizon Weekly 24.06.24. Last week caution prevailed among investors, faced with a scenario marred by political uncertainty in France that is to some extent conditioning the markets in Europe, whereas in the US macro data are still proving rather solid. European spreads were stable, after rising on the political developments in France, and stayed effectively unchanged in the week.

  • Europe rocked by the elections, US driven by the Fed and data

    Europe rocked by the elections, US driven by the Fed and data
    Jun 17 2024
    Eurizon Weekly 17 June 2024. Last week was rife with both macroeconomic and political events. In Europe, the outcome of the elections to renew the European Parliament, while leaving potential majorities shielded from major upheavals, had important repercussions at the national levels. Considerable turbulences emerged in Europe, reflected both by the stock lists, that suffered losses in the week, and by spreads. On the other hand, government bonds performed well in the week, also thanks to lower than expected inflation in the United States, with US indices scoring gains.

  • Stock markets positive on ECB and US payrolls

    Stock markets positive on ECB and US payrolls
    Jun 10 2024
    Eurizon Weekly, 7 June 2024. Last week, important political and economic events took place. In Europe, the much-anticipated ECB meeting on the one hand confirmed investor expectations by implementing an initial policy rate cut, while the new inflation forecasts prompted a partial postponement of expectations for the ensuing path of rate reductions. Also in Europe, the elections to renew the European Parliament were held over the weekend. Although the count isn’t over yet, the outcome leans towards a likely confirmation of the current parliamentary majority, as already indicated by voting intention polls. In the US, on the other hand, May data confirmed the labour market’s good state of health, easing potential pressures on the Fed to proceed with a swifter than estimated rate cut cycle. Expectations in this sense will be revised on Wednesday, in light of the May inflation reading. Andrea Conti, Head of Eurizon’s Macro Research & Product Specialist team, takes a closer look.

    May 20 2024
    Eurizon Weekly 20 May 2024. Last week investor focus was on US macro data, and in particular on the much-anticipated April inflation reading, that was in line with expectations, showing a slight decline. The stock markets benefited most, pricing in the resilience of the US economy, devoid of excessive accelerations, and a marginal stabilisation of the level of interest rates.
