US Dollar Up - Everything Else Down (Except Trannies) | Zero Hedge


Draghi did it (or didn't), blame him... From record intraday highs (on vapid volume) to 5-day lows in the S&P 500 as Mario Draghi cut rates even negative-er and promised to do more QEing. EURUSD collapsed over 2 big figures to 14-month lows below 1.2950. The implicit USD strength sparked selling in everything else. Treasuries pushed notably higher in yield (30Y +13bps on the week, 5Y +8bps) and held their yield highs as stocks started to collapse after Europe closed. The standard late-day machine-driven VWAP ramp lifted stocks off the lows, but S&P 2,000 remained elusive. Gold, silver, and oil all pushed lower as USD jerked higher. High-yield spreads jumped most in 6 weeks to 3-week wides and provided a warning to stocks all day. Bottom line - USD up, everything else down... (except Trannies).
