A weekend escalation in US-Iran tensions featured a failure to seal a deal in Islamabad, which led to President Trump sending the American Navy to block the Strait of Hormuz. With both sides still very far apart from an agreement, stocks and Treasuries suffered deep overnight losses before climbing back into the green prior to the opening bell. WTI trading above $105 a barrel was a substantial signal for investors to cut risk in response to heightening geopolitical angst amidst worries that supplies won\u2019t make it to key Asian export destinations, including China, Japan and South Korea. But Pakistani officials remain committed to try and bring Washington and Tehran closer to a truce, and that motivated market participants to dive in and buy the dips in equities and bonds. Asset prices have fluctuated meaningfully, and now the Russell 2000 and Nasdaq 100 benchmarks are advancing while the Dow Jones and S&P 500 indices retreat against the backdrop of most sectors declining minus technology, energy and financials. Yields, the greenback is rising slightly while commodities are mixed, with crude, natural gas, and copper ascending while silver, gold and lumber descend as sliding odds for rate reductions weigh on those materials. Defensive winds blowing throughout Wall Street have folks adding hedges as premiums on volatility protection instruments increase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Real Estate Sales Hit Slowest Pace Since June<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Residential real estate transactions dove to their slowest pace since June last month, as elevated mortgages rates and growing valuations weighed on affordability. The 3.98 million seasonally adjusted annualized units marked a 3.6% month-over-month (m\/m) decline. Additionally, it arrived beneath the 4.06 million expected and the 4.13 million from February. All regions posted contractions with the Northeast, Midwest, South and West decreasing 8.5%, 4.2%, 3.1% and 1.3% m\/m. The larger single-family segment\u2019s 0.3% m\/m drop was modest compared to the condominium\/cooperative category tanking 5.4% m\/m. Overall, prices grew 1.4% year over year (y\/y) while inventory was up to 1.36 million units, rising 3% m\/m and 2.3% y\/y. Despite the lift in supply, housing stock remains depressed relative to historical norms and that, on top of lofty costs and heavy financing charges, are weakening the outlook for the sector, which is in its fourth consecutive year of recession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Past performance is not indicative of future results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Weakening Fundamentals Have Investors Reaching for Tech<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Today\u2019s narrow stock performance features investors reaching for tech shares as weakening economic fundamentals weigh on buyer engagement in most of the other equity sectors. Participants want to be shareholders of companies that can weather elevated interest rates, climbing oil prices and a cyclical slowdown. The Magnificent 7 names match these criteria and are supporting the recovery on Wall Street from the overnight lows this morning, as profit expectations for this group are rising disproportionately relative to separate equity categories. But with earnings season almost in full swing and assets vulnerable to Washington-Tehran headlines, the bar is high for the overall market to rally significantly, even as valuations have become more accommodative. Furthermore, upcoming quarterly calls will provide significant details on how corporate margins are projected to hold up in a challenging environment of heavy fuel costs, pricier borrowing charges and tariff pressures amidst rate cut prospects that appear distant at best, as fixed-income watchers consider only a 22% chance of a single 25-basis point reduction by year-end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
International Roundup<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Jump in Chinese Debt Issuance Misses Expectations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The total value of loans extended to consumers and businesses in China increased by 2.99 trillion yuan, or $438 billion, in March, up significantly from 900 billion yuan in the preceding month but lower than the economist consensus estimate of 3.465 trillion. It was also down from the January jump of 4.710 billion yuan. Loan growth has been curtailed by the country\u2019s glut of housing. Total social financing, which measures shadow banking by including loans for households along with debt issued by domestic institutions, meanwhile, climbed 7.9% y\/y in March to 456.46 yen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Canada Building Permits Sink<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The volume of building permits as measured by the value of planned construction projects in Canada fell by $1.1 billion, or 8.4%, m\/m to $12.1 billion in February, according to Statistics Canada. Economists anticipated a 0.4% contraction following the 3.5% ascent in January. The value of residential sector projects that received permits in February climbed by $135.6 million, but the gain didn\u2019t fully offset the $1.3 billion drop in the non-residential category. In the non-residential category, the institutional group led the weakness, dropping by $987 million. The value of projects that were issued permits for commercial and industrial buildings, furthermore, slipped by $160 million and $104.7 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
