Market Focus

Technology companies led a rebound in U.S. equities on Thursday after a report showing U.S. stocks were mixed after investors were whipsawed in part by volatile trading in high-risk assets such as Bitcoin amid lingering concerns about the outlook for inflation. Oil rose for the first time in four trading sessions.

The S&P 500 closed little changed after erasing earlier gains when Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harker said the central bank should speak about reducing bond buying sooner rather than later. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 finished lower, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained as investors shifted from growth to value favorites such as Boeing. Bitcoin resumed its selloff Friday after China reiterated a warning that it intends to crack down on cryptocurrency mining as part of an effort to control financial risks.

European shares climbed earlier on prospects of easing lockdowns and as services data signaled a recovery. Asian shares were mostly higher, although they slipped in China.

China has long expressed displeasure with the anonymity provided by Bitcoin and other crypto tokens, and warned earlier in the week that financial institutions weren’t allowed to accept it for payment. China is home to a large concentration of the world’s crypto miners, programmers who use massive computing power to verify transactions on the blockchain.

The global economic revival, the risk of a significant pickup in inflation and Covid-19 flareups in some parts of the world continue to shape market moves. Stocks have been volatile this week, with speculative ardor cooling as minutes from the latest Fed meeting flagged the possibility of a debate at some point on scaling back stimulus measures. Still, better-than-forecast jobless claims data on Thursday buoyed sentiment.

     

Main Pairs Movement:

The dollar outperformed its Group-of-10 currency peers Friday as a gauge of output at U.S. manufacturers and service providers set a record in May, reflecting strength in the economic recovery. The euro retreated from a key level as investors cut long positions. Treasury yields were little changed, and the dollar gained. Gold dropped from its highest level in more than four months.

Among G-10 peers, the krone was the weakest and is on track to be the worst performer this week; the pound topped all this week, while the loonie was poised for a seventh straight weekly advance, the longest run since September. USD/CAD +0.1% at 1.2077; poised for a weekly drop of 0.2%.

USD/JPY +0.2% to 108.95; pair still heading for weekly drop of 0.4%; spike in activity after U.S. Markit PMIs; pair tracking Treasury yield-curve flattening.

Bitcoin is heading into the weekend in freefall again after a fresh warning from Chinese officials over cracking down on cryptocurrencies.

The largest digital currency fell as much as 10% in late Friday trading to as low as $35,636, and peer tokens also posted double-digit losses. The coin almost hit $30,000 earlier in the week, after ending May 14 at $49,100.
