https://www.briefing.com/stock-market-update Futures slip as Treasury yields push higher
18-Apr-22 07:58 ET
Market is Closed
[BRIEFING.COM] S&P futures vs fair value: -6.70. Nasdaq futures vs fair value: -51.50.
The S&P 500 futures trade seven points, or 0.2%, below fair value as Treasury yields continue to push higher amid inflation and rate-hike expectations.
Presently, the 2-yr yield is up another four basis points to 2.49% while the 10-yr yield is up another three basis points to 2.86%. The rapid rise in the 10-yr yield, which is now up 135 basis points this year, continues to pressure the growth stocks in pre-market action.
The bank stocks, though, appear to be drawing support from the higher interest-rate environment, as well as an earnings beat from Bank of America (BAC 38.09, +0.52, +1.5%). The SPDR S&P Bank ETF (KBE 50.00, +0.63) is up 1.3% ahead of the open.
On a related note, this week will be a busy week in earnings, featuring results from seven Dow components, Tesla (TSLA 992.50, +7.50, +0.8%), and Netflix (NFLX 340.00, -1.13, -0.3%).
Separately, today's economic data will be limited to the NAHB Housing Market Index for April (Briefing.com consensus 77), which will be released at 10:00 a.m. ET.
Elsewhere, WTI crude futures remain elevated above $107.00/bbl ($107.05, +0.10, +0.1%), even as more areas in China tightened COVID restrictions, while the U.S. Dollar Index remains above 100.00 (100.60, +0.28, +0.3%).
