Daily Market Outlook, November 8, 2022
“Asian markets retain a bid tone overnight, the outlier remains Chinese equities which have failed to take the positive lead from European and US markets overnight. Overnight data from Australia showed continued deterioration in both business and consumer sentiment readings. Markets are firmly focused on political developments in the US, polling suggests that Republicans are favored to take control of the House of Representatives, the Senate races remain too close to call. With President Biden’s popularity plumbing new lows there is a decent chance that Republicans wrestle control of both houses, this result would significantly hamper the Biden’s administration to make any meaningful policy headway in the second half of his term, further frustration for the Biden administration is seen with former President Trump setting the stage for a Presidential run in 2024, this would essentially see the clock running on the 2024 race as soon as next week. Markets appear poised for a red sweep in the US which will be seen as positive for markets, weighing on the Dollar and US Yields, as the Fed will likely have to take up the baton of economic support as the fiscal impulse from the government will be significantly impeded if not totally neutralised...”
