What’s in Today’s Report:

  • It Can Pay to Think Small(est)

U.S. futures are higher as Treasury yields pull back and a sharp drop in oil prices provides relief for investors.

Oil prices are falling after reports that U.S. and Iranian negotiators discussed a phased approach to ending the war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

Economically, the BoJ Core CPI rose 1.8% y/y vs. (E) 1.5%, while German GfK Consumer Climate fell to -30.6 vs. (E) -27.1.

Today, focus will be on Jobless Claims (E: 204K) and New Home Sales (E: 615K), while markets will continue to watch Treasury yields and oil prices for signs of easing inflation pressure.

Finally, two Fed speakers are speaking today: Schmid (9:20 a.m. ET) and Hammack (2:00 p.m. ET).
