TRA Macro Tracking Index
Current Outlook
Markets are not thrilled with the unease in the Middle East, with yields and the dollar advancing over the weekend. Not much, but also not signaling strong support coming off last week's weaker jobs report. CPI comes out this week, and the direction of travel is what investors will be looking at for guidance on Fed rate policy.
Stay tuned all week as we track the numbers!
