MARKET COMMENTS

June E-mini S&Ps (ESM15 -0.01%) this morning are down -1.25 points (-0.06%). Friday's closes: S&P 500 +1.35%, Dow Jones +1.49%, Nasdaq +1.30%. The S&P 500 on Friday closed sharply higher on hopes for a delayed Fed rate hike after April payrolls rose by only +223,000 and March payrolls were revised lower to a 2-3/4 year low of +85,000 from +126,000. In addition, SPX Q1 earnings have been better than expected and Q1 earnings expectations are now at +0.2% y/y versus -5.6% at the beginning of the earnings season.

Jun 10-year T-notes (ZNM15 -0.13%) this morning are down -5.5 ticks. Friday's closes: TYM5 +14.00, FVM5 +11.25. Jun T-notes on Friday closed with solid gains after the lackluster April payroll report of +223,000 and the downward revision in March payrolls to +85,000 from +126,000, which reduced concerns about Fed tightening. In addition, the 10-year T-note breakeven inflation rate fell to a 2-week low.

The dollar index (DXY00 +0.34%) this morning is up +0.287 (+0.30%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.0041 (-0.37%). USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is up +0.14 (+0.12%). Friday's closes: Dollar Index +0.548 (+0.58%), EUR/USD -0.00657 (-0.58%), USD/JPY -0.022 (-0.02%). The dollar index on Friday closed slightly higher on the rally in U.S. stocks and on weakness in EUR/USD after German Mar industrial production unexpectedly fell -0.5% m/m, weaker than expectations of +0.4% m/m. However, dollar gains were limited by the April unemployment report, which bolstered speculation that the Fed will be in no hurry to raise interest rates.

Jun WTI crude oil (CLM15 -0.40%) this morning is down -26 cents (-0.44%) and Jun gasoline (RBM15 -0.25%) is down -0.0042 (-0.21%). Friday's closes: CLM5 +0.45 (+0.76%), RBM5 +0.0077 (+0.39%). Jun crude oil and gasoline on Friday closed higher on continued support from Wednesday's EIA report, which showed a -3.88 million bbl decline in EIA crude oil inventories, the first decline in 17 weeks, and a -4,000 bpd decline in U.S. crude production in the week ended May 1, the third decline in the past four weeks.
