McElligott: "Equities Are Exhausting, I Hate To Even Write About Them Now" After yesterday''s epic rollercoaster in rates, where we first a dual VaR shock, first in the front-end of the curve as eurodollar exploded higher sending rate hike expectations plunging, and then moved to the long end with coupon bond yields crashing, especially in Germany, where the 10Y bund saw the biggest one day drop in yields in a decade… ... today we are seeing a sharp reversal in much of yesterday''s move - to be expected after Biden''s SOTU address yesterday when he again tasked Powell with easing inflation (even if it means an even sharper economic slowdown, although Biden''s speechwriter was unfamiliar with the trade-offs of monetary policy and so this particular part wasn''t mentioned) with Dec 22 Eurodollars sinking, and leading to one of the sharpest one day drops in the past year, although we are still nowhere near where we were just last week when absolutely everyone on Wall Street was convinced the Fed would hike as much as 7 times this year alone, and who knows how much in 2023.

As the war in Ukraine and sanctions on Russia drive a relentless surge in oil prices, equities in India and South Korea are looking more vulnerable. With Brent crude crossing $110 a barrel, that clouds the outlook for two of Asia’s larger oil importers -- which are also home to the region’s worst-performing currencies this year. While stocks in Mumbai and Seoul have already taken hits from concerns over Federal Reserve interest-rate hikes and a related technology selloff, analysts see both as more susceptible to risk-off sentiment. Rising costs could squeeze companies’ profits at a time Asia’s earnings growth is lagging global peers. Higher oil prices “are particularly negative for India, Korea and Taiwan, which are large oil importers,” Morgan Stanley strategists including Jonathan Garner wrote in a note.89942389Down more than 9%, South Korea’s Kospi Index is the worst performer among major Asian benchmarks this year. India’s S&P BSE Sensex has lost 5% while the broader MSCI Asia Pacific Index is down about 6%.Bloomberg Intelligence estimates an 80-100 basis points upside risk to a 5.9% average inflation forecast for India in the year starting April if commodity prices remain high.

Futures, Treasury Yields Tumble As Ukraine News Spike Risk Off Mood In a mirror image of yesterday''s overnight bounce, S&P futures and European markets have slumped to session lows as a risk off mood prevailed as US traders got to their desks having hit overnight highs of 4,399 just before the European open, as mood soured after the conflict in Ukraine intensified amid mounting penalties against Russia, and as participants look to a heavy data-docket ahead and Fed speak including Powell later in the week. Any residual optimism was shattered after Ukrainian President Zelensky said that negotiations with the Russian side have not achieved required results while Russian Defense Minister Shoygu says Russia will continue operations in Ukraine until it achieves its goals. As a result, Nasdaq 100 contracts were down 0.9% as of 7 a.m. in New York after the cash index closed yesterday’s session with its second straight monthly decline, a trend not seen since October 2020. S&P 500 futures declined 0.7% or 30 points to 4,337 while Dow futures fell 0.7% or 230 points, reversing much of yesterday''s last hour ramp.

Stocks Bounce On "End Of US Exceptionalism" Trade Unwinds, ''Short Gamma'' & ''Plumbing'' Fears Remain Serious Threats After crashing at the Sunday night open - erasing all of Friday''s melt-up - US equity futures have staged their ubiquitous rebound (though still remain notably lower). Through SpotGamma''s options lens , the market has just simply reverted back to equilibrium after a strong short cover rally. Crucially however, Nomura''s Charlie McElligott warns that the focus in coming-days will likely be in the financial system “plumbing,” where we are seeing expected signs of risk-off - but certainly no current “stress” - in USD funding space, as markets wait for the first fallouts of the Russian liquidity lockout: Front-end FRA-OIS gapped meaningfully (USFOSC1 +8bps initial), x-currency basis swaps widened (EUBSC -20, EUXOQQC -20, JYBSC -14 - more negative means “more expensive” to borrow Dollars through FX swaps than domestically)… ...and front Mar / Apr ED$ contracts underperformed the rest of the curve contracts (EDH2EDM2 -10 initial), as these markets are beginning to reflect increased demand for- / cost of- Dollar funding ... ... but I’d say more anticipatory than anything else at this juncture (so far this morning, no abnormal flows in US bills or repo as of yet) But for now, the Nomura cross-asset strategist is “watching and waiting”?

The transaction happened at Rs 275 per share. This values the deal at Rs 16.5 crore. The stock jumped nearly 5 per cent earlier in the day.
