"Morning Memo" begins below this "NOTE for NEWCOMERS" to "Morning Memo"...... Each
morning, we post a short bullet-point list of noteworthy events,
data, etc that find their way into the assessment of global markets.
It's far from complete and is not meant to be an exhaustive
reconciliation of all things that could possibly impact stocks, bonds,
currencies and commodities! Rather, it's best viewed as a cryptic memo
of "highlights", noteworthy items that took place in Asia, European and
US hours.....and color-coded 'Red' for seemingly negative impact on equity markets, 'Green' for positive.
This will also serve as a useful review mechanism, as scrolling through the series of "Morning Memo" posts over time ought to summarily highlight what generally drove price action.
We hope you find this useful and informative....and as always, that you'll share feedback!!

5:00am ET...
- Asia...equity markets generally higher, with Japan seeing a slightly stronger Yen, and China able to recover from early equity market weakness triggered by continuing upward pressure on short term money market rates. China's s-t rates climbed to over 9% before settling back to 5%.
- Thailand...a clear downside outlier, as equity markets reacted to continued anti-government protests that have been going on for several weeks.
- Taiwan...markets close at 2.5yr high as strong US GDP data raises hopes for Taiwan's tech export sector.
- Europe..opens higher.
- South Sudan....Americans evacuated as civil war fighting intensifies. Oil supply disruptions is a global risk, adding to other oil-supply risks in Nigeria and Libya.
- more later....
