After yesterday’s decline, the three major U.S. futures indexes rose slightly before Thursday, reflecting the swing mood of the market in uncertainty, and U.S. bond yields resumed their rise.
Daniel Morris, chief market strategy analyst of France Pakistan asset management, said that before February this year, we were worried about raising interest rates, and then concerns about military conflict flooded the market. Now these two problems are intertwined. The challenge of the current environment is that you can’t hold cash, which is the so-called choosing the less bad ones from a pile of bad targets.
It is worth noting that Biden, who has been shouting outside the Russian Ukrainian conflict line, also personally entered Europe on Thursday. After today’s meeting with EU, NATO and G7 leaders, Biden will also visit Poland near Ukraine on Friday. Western countries are expected to take this opportunity to continue to put pressure on Russia, but there is also limited room for Europe to make concessions on the most critical energy issues.
