ETF Database•9 days agoMajor Stock Indices Feel The Pain of Multi-Year High Rates
A sharp rise in the yield of benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury notes sparked a sell-off in stocks that circled global markets. Debt markets are under pressure with bond prices falling rapidly, prompting investors to head toward products like inverse bonds ETFs for a piece of the pie. Japanese companies have not been spared the rout and fell to a four-week low, while crude oil traded near 4-year highs due to a plunge in Iranian exports as a result of U.S. sanctions. Closing the list, Canadian assets were favored last week on news regarding the rescue of the trilateral North American Free Trade Agreement but did not enjoy the highly anticipated inflows for long.

Potential Winners and Losers in the U.S.-Mexico Trade Deal
Following this week's trade pact between the U.S. and Mexico, the Trump Administration is aiming to arm-wrestle Canada to agree to more favorable trade terms in the U.S., particularly in matters of agriculture and dairy. President Trump has gone as far to say that he will drop the "NAFTA" name and name this week's agreement the "United States-Mexico Trade Agreement," potentially leaving Canada out in the cold. However, the deal still faces approval from Congress, which is likely to move forward only if Canada is brought on board as a trilateral agreement is paramount given the relevance across many industries, including agriculture, autos, manufacturing, steel and energy.
