Concerns over condition of US banking sector pressure markets
Futures markets point to a much lower opening of the European cash session today with DAX futures trading around 200 points below yesterday's cash close. This comes after a massive sell-off on Wall Street yesterday and in Asia today. Trigger for a risk-off move were concerns over the condition of the US banking sector after SVB Bank informed it incurred $1.8 billion in pre-tax loss amid a hasty sale of a $21 billion bond portfolio aimed at boosting liquidity position. This has exerted pressure on other banking shares and led to a 7.7% in KBW banking index.
US banking sector woes will likely play a major role in today's price actions with European indices reacting to Wall Street sell-off. Economic calendar for today's European morning is empty but things get more interesting in the evening with the release of jobs data from the United States and Canada. A strong NFP report could reinforce market bets for a 50 basis point rate hike at FOMC meeting in March and it could exert even more pressure on equities.
