The Fed Chair remains 'data driven' and we must monitor key developments in inflation (CPI next Tuesday) and jobs numbers. ⢠US earnings continue with Walt Disney, Hilton, Uber, and MGM Resorts, which will tell us more about the state of the travel sector. For instance, are consumers still spending significantly on travel and leisure? ⢠Lastly, oil added a jaw-dropping 4%, settling at its highest level in a week on China demand hopes, and Middle East supply issues. Economic data ⢠FOMC Member Williams speak ⢠German Buba Balz speaks ⢠Crude oil inventories Earnings ⢠Walt Disney, Uber, CVS Health ⢠Wendy's, Yum!, Under Armour ⢠Affirm, Hilton, MGM Resorts Crypto ⢠Bitcoin rose more than 38% in January, its best month since October 2021. The next catalyst could be a continuation of the risk-on trade, but this is likely to depend on data on inflation and economic growth. ⢠Binance, the worldâs largest crypto exchange, will suspend USD deposits and withdrawals from today. It could be because its banking partner Signature Bank raised transaction minimums for dollar transfers.

Microsoft added almost 4% after the tech giant said it will revamp its Bing search engine with AI-powered tools. Alphabet also gained 3% plus. AI play Nvidia rose almost 4%, riding on the hot theme. Oil rose by more than 4% on China demand hopes. The dollar index (DXY) only fell slightly. EURUSD remained around the same level. Surprisingly, 10y Treasury yields jumped 4.5bps to 3.68% on inflation expectations perhaps slightly higher for longer. This morning, S&P500 futures are slightly in the green, with previous session highs remaining a key target for bulls. And markets will follow FOMC Member Williams' speech later today, which could add volatility to stocks and to the dollar. Chart Of the Day JPMorgan's Kolanovic is the latest to fall in the bear camp, calling the stock rally a 'bear-market trap', arguing that the US economy' disinflationary process could just be transitory. The reality is the situation is more nuanced as markets are digesting favorable data that is showing the economy is slowing but it is still resilient. Inflation is for now slowing, and earnings are stronger than feared, but the jobs market in the US remains too tight.
