Wall Street trades lower after upbeat Trade in Goods balance data❗
- US indices return to declines after Christmas break
- Tesla loses nearly 6% amid further production restrictions in China
US500 loses 0.6% and the market sellers look to push the main US benchmark to levels below 3,800 points. The US100 slips below 10,900 points and is trading 1.2% below the bar. The US30 is doing much better, trading down 0.2%. The bullish momentum sustained during the European session was negated after the reading of Trade in Goods balance. A huge drop in the US goods deficit, the largest since 2009, triggered a deterioration in market bullishness. Better goods deficit data could support U.S. GDP in Q4 2022, which could herald the Fed's maintaining a more hawkish stance.
