TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

The prospect of lower inflation pressures has sparked a fresh move lower for commodity prices today. Sharp declines across the likes of palladium, iron ore, platinum, and copper have sent miners lower, to the detriment of UK markets in particular. Bulls will hope that Joe Biden’s plan to ramp up infrastructure spending will help drive asset prices upwards once again. However, with Chinese growth slowing, we are starting to see some of the upside throughout the sector ease somewhat.

YESTERDAY ACTIVITY

Generally, a government bond is issued by a national government and is denominated in the country`s own currency. Bonds issued by national governments in foreign currencies are normally referred to as sovereign bonds. The yield required by investors to loan funds to governments reflects inflation expectations and the likelihood that the debt will be repaid.
