EQUITIES: Fresh Session Highs For E-minis On Tsy Bid & Canada Tariff News

Apr-15 14:18

E-minis trade to fresh session highs but remain within the ranges observed in recent sessions.

  • The Tsy rally, driven by the previously covered comments surrounding SLR reform, will have factored into the move in stocks, given recent U.S. asset correlations.
  • Elsewhere, news of Canadian tariff exemptions for some U.S. goods will also have provided further support.
  • Financials perform well in the wake of today’s big bank earnings.
  • First resistance of note in S&P 500 e-minis comes in at the 20-day EMA (5,505.38)
