Yesterday's Recap

US data on June 30 showed labor demand holding up better than expected. JOLTs job openings reached 7.594 million against a 7.3 million consensus, while consumer confidence edged up to 91.2. Chicago PMI fell sharply to 56.7 from 62.7 previously, missing forecasts, and Case-Shiller home prices climbed to 1.1% y/y.

Equity markets advanced with the S&P 500 closing at 7,499.36 and Nasdaq 100 at 30,276.35. The 2-year Treasury yield rose 3 basis points to 4.10% while the 10-year held at 4.38%. WTI crude fell 1.84% to 68.22 amid inventory builds, and gold climbed 1.54% to 4,085.

ADP employment came in at 98,000, below the 113,000 consensus.

The Day Ahead

Markets await the July 2 jobs report at 8:30 a.m. ET, with payroll growth and the 4.3% unemployment rate in focus. ISM manufacturing details and any follow-up from Chair Warsh’s European Central Bank forum remarks could influence rate expectations.

Treasury auctions and oil inventory updates may add volatility to yields and energy prices. Fed speakers are limited, keeping attention on incoming labor data and its implications for the 3.63% fed funds rate.

Other Economic Notes

Home price gains and steady consumer confidence point to resilient household balance sheets despite higher borrowing costs. Manufacturing employment improved modestly in the ISM survey, yet overall factory activity cooled. Oil inventory draws and gasoline stock declines suggest tightening supply conditions that could support prices later in the summer.

Broader equity leadership by small caps and technology shares reflects optimism over growth without immediate recession signals.

Global Macro News

European indices outperformed US peers in June amid diverging policy paths. Brazil and regional partners highlighted Argentina’s widening travel deficit, indirectly pressuring USD demand in Latin America. CMA CGM’s $1.4 billion acquisition of FedEx supply-chain assets signals continued consolidation in global logistics.

Global Macro News (continued)

China’s stabilization signals and EU inflation prints at 1.9% y/y keep external pressure on US yields modest. Middle East supply concerns continue to influence energy markets and safe-haven flows into gold.

Fed Watch

Chair Warsh reiterated the Federal Reserve’s political independence and focus on returning inflation to target during his ECB forum appearance. With the fed funds rate at 3.63%, CPI at 2.31% y/y and unemployment at 4.3%, the committee maintains a data-dependent stance. Warsh’s comments reinforced that policy adjustments will hinge on incoming inflation and labor metrics rather than external political pressure.

Markets now price limited near-term easing, consistent with the committee’s forward guidance that keeps options open while inflation risks remain in view.
