Daily Market Snapshot: US Stocks Fall, Treasury Yields and Dollar Gain – 19 July 2024

US Stock markets were hit again in trading yesterday with the Dow joining in this time to fall off record highs and lead the way down, losing over 1% on the day. US Treasury yields and the dollar gained back some of their recent lost ground as US data came in better than expected. 

Oil markets traded in a relatively tight range with both Brent and WTI closing close to flat, and Gold dropped again from recent record levels. 

It is a quieter macroeconomic data calendar today with Retail Sales data in the UK and Canada the standouts, however newswires again look set to have a bigger influence on direction into the weekend.
