After experiencing some erratic trading over the final days of 2023, it appears that global markets have stabilized to start 2024. Later in the day, S&P Global will make changes to the December PMI data for the US, Germany, the UK, and the Euro area. ISM Manufacturing PMI, JOLTS data for November On Wednesday, the US FOMC Minutes and Job Openings data may increase market volatility later in the day.
December saw a 2% monthly loss for the US Dollar (USD) Index, which measures the USD's performance against a basket of six major currencies, as dovish Federal Reserve (Fed) wagers dominated the market. The benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield decreased by 10% during that same time frame. The 10-year yield is below 3.9% and the USD Index is stable at 101.50 in the early hours of Tuesday.
