Final trading day of the week on stock markets was marked with upbeat moods. Indices gained in Asia and Europe. Big gains can also be spotted on Wall Street with major US indices trading over 2% higher at press time. Risk-on moods could also be spotted on the commodity markets as well as FX markets. While recession risk remains real, a drop in US yields is helping shore up the sentiment. Moreover, revision of Michigan data for June showed that long-term inflation expectations did not increase as much as signaled by preliminary reading. Note that Powell said that results of survey data pointing to rising inflation expectations was one of the reasons that Fed decided to hike rates by 75 basis points instead of 50 basis points. As the situation turned out no to be as grim, money markets started to pare bets for a 75 basis point hike at a meeting in July.
