CONCEPT

Equity markets are influenced by multiple dynamics at the same times. Here we monitor the relationship between the Stoxx 600 and key variables to understand what's behind the latest change in stock prices.

CURRENT READINGS
  • Fading policy uncertainty & media noise are acting only as partial driver of rising stock prices at the moment, as other factors are having more influence (1-month daily correlation is at -0.30).
MARKET IMPLICATIONS

Understanding the dominant sources of short-term influence helps identify if current stock movements are driven by grounded macro realities or fleeting market sentiment.

CONCEPT

Equity markets are influenced by multiple dynamics at the same times. Here we monitor the relationship between the S&P 500 and key variables to understand what's behind the latest change in stock prices.

CURRENT READINGS
  • Fading policy uncertainty & media noise is not synchronized with stock movements, therefore uncertainty is not driving rising stock prices at the moment (1-month daily correlation is at 0.18).
MARKET IMPLICATIONS

Understanding the dominant sources of short-term influence helps identify if current stock movements are driven by grounded macro realities or fleeting market sentiment.
