Moving Markets: Daily News

It was a mixed bag for global equities at the start of the new trading week. European equities stumbled in response to last week's robust US jobs data, while US markets saw a significant shift away from technology stocks and towards energy, healthcare and materials. Market sentiment is being driven by expectations that the Federal Reserve will be cautious with regard to cutting interest rates this year, higher global government bond yields and a strengthening US dollar. Meanwhile, Japanese equities faced headwinds overnight amid growing expectations of an imminent rate hike. Joining us to break down the current state of the crypto world is Manuel Villegas from Next Generation Research.
