MARKET TALK: Solid Earnings For Tech Push E-Minis Higher After Hours

MNI

After an initial show higher at the re-open e-minis are off best levels but still hang on to most of their after-hours gains which came on the back of impressive earnings beats (at least on most metrics) for the mega-cap U.S. tech names (although, some will argue this comes against a low bar), while T-Notes hold a tight range, trading on the 140 handle.

  • G10 FX tight, with holidays in the likes of Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia set to thin out liquidity during Asia-Pac hours.
  • Worth noting that the state of fiscal impasse continues in Washington.
  • Chinese official PMI data headlines the regional docket on Friday, with consensus expectations looking for fairly stable rates of expansion in both the manufacturing and non-manufacturing surveys.
