There has been no follow through to yesterday's rebound effort, which is perhaps the biggest reason for the drop in the futures market this morning. The inclination to sell quickly into strength is undercutting investor sentiment once again along with concerns about economic prospects.
The latter have shown up this morning in weakening commodity prices -- copper futures are down 3.1% to $3.91/lb and WTI crude futures are down 4.8% to $104.73/bbl -- and strengthening prices in the Treasury market. The 2-yr note yield is down 10 basis points to 3.12% while the 10-yr note yield is down 11 basis points to 3.20%.
The weakness in gasoline futures (-2.1% to $3.71/gal) is also telling, as it comes on top of reports that President Biden is calling on Congress to suspend the national gas tax. Doing so could help provide some price relief at the pump, but at the same time, the lower prices would stoke demand. Reports indicate this proposal could hit a wall in Congress.
Corporate news is limited today and is not serving as a market driver. A potential driver, though, will be Fed Chair Powell's Semiannual Monetary Policy Report to the Senate Banking Committee at 9:30 a.m. ET. Nervousness ahead of the report, and Q&A session, is likely contributing to this morning's cautious-minded tone.
