EUROPEAN MARKETS


DAX – the good news is that the 2-day squeeze in European Equities recaptured the 7116 intermediate-term TREND line for the DAX; the bad news is that the DAX continues to make lower-highs and is broken on an immediate-term TRADE basis (7231 resistance); this is where being Duration Agnostic matters.

ASIAN MARKETS


JAPAN – island economy, hostage to high cost oil imports in local FX, smothered by Keynesian economic policy enters the death spiral of what didn’t work 15 yrs ago (Krugman: “Print Lots of Money”); OCT Exports -6.5% y/y is a train wreck (3yr lows) and the Yen hits a 7mth low; this remains the most un-talked about risk in Global Macro today.
