Financial Markets Appear Calm, But Liquidity May Be Drying Up
Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2017 Nov 22, 2017 - 03:04 PM GMTSPX futures are marginally higher, having made a premarket high of 2600.00 in futures which translates roughly to 2602.00 in the cash market.
Today’s market may trade in a narrow range on extremely low volume as most traders have left for the holiday.
Not so in Asia. ZeroHedge reports, “Global shares hit another record high on Wednesday, propelled higher by what increasingly more call (ir)rational exuberance, and investors’ unflagging enthusiasm for tech stocks. That said, S&P futures are unchanged the morning before Thanksgiving (at least before the market open ramp), as are European stocks (Stoxx 600 is flat), despite the euphoria in the Asian session which saw the MSCI Asia Pac index hit a new all time high...”
VIX futures are flat-to-marginally lower this morning. They plumbed yesterday’s low but did not exceed it.
TNX is also trading in a very narrow range.
USD went lower this morning, but hasn’t broken the 50-day support at 93.42.
USD/JPY, however, is starting to plumb the September lows. It appears that liquidity is drying up, but the markets are too thin to notice.

Tony
