Thus, the consumer goods segment traded better than the market, ending the day with a result of + 0.14%. The energy sector corrected by 2.27%.

    Company news

    Software developer Twilio (TWLO: + 7.7%) posted strong quarterly results, with revenue growth exceeding expectations.

    Walmart’s comparable sales (WMT: -6.5%) were better than the consensus, but investors were disappointed by the weak EPS performance and the forecast that the retailer’s capex will increase from $ 10 billion to $ 14 billion this year.

    Today, global stock markets are showing mixed dynamics. Investors continue to assess the potential impact of rising bond yields on the stock market. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to the February 2020 level. From the point of view of corporate finance, in this situation, the discount rate increases, which ultimately reduces the fair value of the shares. At the same time, an increase in the yield of government bonds reflects an improvement in economic prospects, so there is no consensus among the investment community regarding the impact of this factor on the market.

    The current consensus on the fiscal stimulus package suggests that it will be approved in mid-March in the amount of about $ 1.5 trillion. Moreover, after the adoption of this package, all attention will be focused on infrastructure government spending, the project of which will be presented next month. Their estimated volume is $ 2 trillion. Rumors regarding this bill are already beginning to influence the market.

The previous trading session did not change the overall picture too much. In the short term, correction or consolidation is likely, as a bearish divergence is being formed on the RSI indicator.

The energy sector was again the leader of growth (+ 3.01%), while the IT sector was down 0.95% under the influence of weak performance in FAANG shares.

    Global stock markets are showing mixed dynamics. President-elect Joe Biden has unveiled a $ 1.9 trillion bailout package that will be funded by increasing government debt. The bulk of this amount will go to help households, including through direct payments to Americans in the amount of $ 1400. About $ 400 billion is expected to be allocated to fight the virus and a vaccination campaign. In February, Biden will unveil an addendum to the announced plan that will include infrastructure costs. However, investors were not too encouraged by this: S&P 500 futures are showing a slight decline. This is partly due to the fact that the presented program almost coincided with the expectations of market participants, who, at the same time, would like to hear more details about infrastructure costs.

    The scale of monetary stimulus, most likely, will not start to decrease soon. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell reiterated yesterday that rates will not be raised for a long time. The first hike is still expected in 2023. Powell noted that the Fed will start signaling plans to scale back its asset purchase program in advance.

    December retail sales data will be released today. A decrease of 0.2% m / m is expected after falling by 1.1% in November, which is associated with the preservation of a number of quarantine measures in the United States, restricting, in particular, the work of the catering sector. The data for January should reflect the effect of direct payments to the population at the end of December.

    JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM) will report for the past quarter today. Earnings per share, according to general market expectations, should increase by 3.89% YoY to $ 2.67, and the bank’s non-interest segment revenue will increase by about 20% yoy. This rapid growth will be driven by increased operational activity in investment banking and trading. The bank’s net interest margin is forecast to plateau in the third quarter, so a trend reversal is likely in the fourth quarter report on the back of rising 10-year US government bond yields.
