Separately, the Mortgage Bankers Association reported more Americans applied for mortgages last week, with refinance activity also rising. Achillion Pharmaceuticals rose after Tuesday's 24 percent drop as biotechnology shares were hit by worries insurers and drug-benefit managers might try to restrict drug costs; Cal-Maine Foods fell after the egg producer reported quarterly earnings short of estimates. The Dow and S&P 500 rose to intraday records, before losing losing steam in the final moments of trading. Dialing back from a 62-point jump, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 6.04 points to 18,030.21, another record close. Boeing led blue-chip gains that included 11 of 30 components. Erasing a 5- point gain, the S&P 500 shed a fraction to finish at 2,081.88, with energy leading sector losses that included seven of its 10 major industry groups. Rebounding from Tuesday's decline, the Nasdaq gained 8.05 points, or 0.2 percent, to 4,773.47. Volume was light in Wednesday's shortened session before Thursday's Christmas Day holiday. Decliners pulled just ahead of advancers on the New York Stock Exchange, where 349 million shares traded. Composite volume surpassed 1.4 billion. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note used to determine mortgage rates and other consumer loans turned lower, off 1 basis point to 2.2554 percent. The U.S. dollar declined against the currencies of major U.S. trading partners and dollar denominated commodities including oil and gold fell. Crude-oil futures for February delivery dropped $1.28 to $55.84 a barrel, and gold futures for February dropped $4.50 to $1,173.50 an ounce. EUROPE & UK Smith & Nephew outperforms sluggish European markets UK's FTSE 100 rises 0.2 pct to 6,609.93 points U.K. market will remain closed on Friday Bid speculation drove up the shares of medical devices maker Smith & Nephew on Wednesday, allowing it to outpace sluggish European stock markets in a shortened session ahead of the Christmas break. The 7.7 percent jump in Smith & Nephew, after Bloomberg News reported U.S. rival Stryker was planning a takeover offer for it, allowed Britain's blue-chip FTSE 100 index to end 0.2 percent higher at 6,609.93 points. France’s CAC ended down 0.4 percent as data showing another set of record unemployment figures in France weighed on the Paris market. By contrast, data showed that British workers' productivity had a long-awaited improvement in the third quarter of this year, highlighting how Britain has managed to avoid the worst of the economic slump afflicting the euro zone. Spain’s IBEX equity index was flat, while the cash markets for both Milan and Frankfurt's DAX were closed. The DAX is up 4 percent in 2014, beating a 2 percent dip on the FTSE 100 and a flat performance on France's CAC. ASIA Asian markets mostly higher amid light trade; Tokyo rebounds Japan data shows Abenomics still struggling Asian bourses largely rose amid thin post-Christmas trading, as markets in Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia and the Philippines remain shut. With Wall Street closed for the holiday season as well, attention was on a flurry of monthly indicators released by Japan ahead of trade opening. For the month of November, Japan's industrial output posted a surprise drop, while inflation continued to slow, offering fresh signs that efforts to resuscitate the country's stalled economy aren't proceeding smoothly. Manufacturing fell 0.6 percent on-month in November, compared with a Reuters poll forecasting a 0.8 percent rise and October's 0.4 percent rise. Meanwhile, core inflation, which includes energy but not fresh food, rose 2.7 percent on-year in November, in line with expectations from a Reuters poll, but marked the fourth straight month of declines. Japanese shares closed up marginally late Friday, overcoming sluggishness in the morning session after the release of mixed data. However the yen, which traded little moved against the greenback at 120.18, limited gains. For the holiday-shortened week, the benchmark Nikkei 225 index added 0.8 percent while the broader Topix index gained 0.8 percent. Large-caps and exporters were mixed; Toyota Motor moved up 1.1 percent while Canon and Honda finished 2.5 and 1.1 percent lower. Fast Retailing, owner of clothes brand Uniqlo, lost 0.4 percent while robot maker Fanuc notched up 0.4 percent. Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group rose 0.7 percent, after one of its units, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking (SMBC), announced that it would be buying Citigroup's Japanese retail banking business for about 40 billion yen ($333 million) on Thursday. South Korea's Kospi index edged up to a two-and-half-week high, after being shut on Thursday for the Christmas holiday, while the junior Kosdaq index lost early gains to slip 0.3 percent. Energy plays threw away early gains despite oil prices moving up in Asian trade after news that a rocket hit a storage tank at Libya's biggest oil port. S-Oil and SK Innovation lost 0.2 and 0.3 percent each. China's Shanghai Composite index jumped nearly 3 percent on Friday, with brokerages leading gains after authorities further eased liquidity conditions for banks. A local media report said that the Chinese central bank is planning to include inter-bank lending by non-bank financial institutions as a part of the calculated deposit base. Hence, Citic Securities rose the maximum allowable of 10 percent while Haitong Securities and Founder Securities piled on 9.9 percent each. The stock market in Hong Kong is closed for Christmas and will reopen for trade on December 29. In Southeast Asia, Malaysia's benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI index surged to a two-week high on the back of rallying banking shares. Among gainers, Hong Leong Financial Group bolstered 2.2 percent. Underperforming the region, Singapore's Straits Times index eased 0.1 percent while Thailand's SET index fell 0.5 percent ahead of the central bank's latest economic review.

On the supply side, data suggested an increasing glut as U.S. data showed crude inventories unexpectedly rose by 7.3 million barrels last week to their highest December level on record. Front-month Brent crude prices were trading at $60.50 at 0319 GMT, up 26 cents, while U.S. WTI's front-month contract was up 32 cents at $56.16 a barrel in thin trading as many countries were still on Christmas holiday. Uncertainty around whether Brent can hold above $60 or not and lower liquidity toward the end of the year meant that price volatility has risen to levels this month last seen in 2012. Brent is down more than a percent for the week, while U.S. crude was heading for a smaller 0.7 percent drop. Gold inches up in thin trade, eyes 2nd straight weekly drop Gold gained 1 percent in thin post-Christmas trading on Friday as the dollar slipped against a basket of major currencies, but the metal was headed for a second straight weekly drop, underscoring the bearishness in the market. Spot gold gained 1 percent to $1,184.81 an ounce by 0341 GMT, moving away from a three-week low of $1,170.17 hit earlier in the week. Liquidity was thin as key markets in the region such as Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore were closed on Friday. The U.K. market will remain closed, although New York will be open. The dollar index was 0.2 percent lower after climbing to a near nine-year peak earlier this week.

  • Monthly Economic Update
    122 Winnebago Street, Decorah, IA 52101 309 HWY 150 N, West Union, IA 52175 1-877-566-9468 Text: 563-412-4770 [email protected] Visit us at www.knoxfin.com In this month’s recap: stocks stay in rally mode, helped by hints that the U.S. and China may be closing in on a phase-one trade deal; hiring bounces back; key real estate indicators look stronger. Monthly Economic Update Presented by Jason Knox, AIF®, CRC®, December 2019 THE MONTH IN BRIEF The S&P 500 rose 3.4% in November and attained a series of record closes in the process. Earnings results helped stocks, as did intermittent signals that the first stage of a U.S.-China trade agreement might be near at hand. Job creation improved, and consumer spending lived up to market expectations; consumer confidence and business activity, not so much. Housing indicators communicated good news, and the rally in stocks made the commodity sector look less attractive. DOMESTIC ECONOMIC HEALTH Were the U.S. and China close to signing off on the first phase of a new trade deal? According to officials from both countries, the answer was yes. When would this phase- one deal be finalized? No definite answer emerged. On November 8, President Donald Trump said that such an agreement was near, and six days later, White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow said that negotiators were “getting close” to an accord. On November 26, China’s commerce ministry announced that trade representatives had “reached a consensus” on remaining issues, and President Trump said that negotiators were in the “final throes of a very important deal.” Still, November ended without any announcement that a phase-one pact had been reached.2,3 The Department of Labor’s latest employment report found that the economy generated 128,000 net new jobs in October.

The market was hit by a perfect storm in 1H21 with persistently high Covid-19 cases, multiple lockdowns, ESG concerns and political uncertainty.

We expect recovery stocks to see renewed interest in 4Q and the market to re-rate to our KLCI target of 1,604 pts, after an anticipated lacklustre 3Q21. We provide six trading themes for 2H21F in this report; our top Shariah sector picks are Islamic banking, healthcare, media, oil & gas, packaging, semiconductor, EMS, transport and utilities. Our top three Shariah stock picks are Gamuda, Telekom Malaysia and Unisem. IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES, INCLUDING ANY REQUIRED RESEARCH CERTIFICATIONS, ARE PROVIDED AT THE END OF THIS REPORT.

In this case, collective behavior could be emerged form their dependency together. This article studies the collective behavior of a set of forty influential markets in the world economy with the aim of exploring a global financial structure that could be called world-stock-market network. Towards this end, we analyze the cross-correlation matrix of the indices of these forty markets using Random Matrix Theory (RMT). We find the degree of collective behavior among the markets and the share of each market in their structural formation. This finding together with the results obtained from the same calculation on four stock markets reinforce the idea of a world financial market. Finally, we draw the dendrogram of the cross-correlation matrix to make communities in this abstract global market visible.
