Not a pleasant day for global markets:
The global economy is under increasing stress as growth cools and trade tensions take a mounting toll. On Wednesday, the tremors were felt worldwide.
Shares on Wall Street were off sharply, only a day after they had rallied as President Trump narrowed the scope of his next round of tariffs. The S&P 500 was down 2.9 percent. And bond markets offered an ominous warning on American growth prospects, with yields falling to levels not seen in years.
The financial jitters, which continued Thursday as markets in Asia were down in early trading, came after new data showed the German economy hurtling toward a recession and factory output in China growing at its slowest pace in 17 years.
The trouble in two of the world’s manufacturing powerhouses indicated, in part, how hard both have been hit by Mr. Trump’s tariffs. And it increased concern that the United States, too, is headed for an economic reckoning.
Treasuries reaped the benefits:
Investors were intensely attuned Wednesday to downbeat economic signals from the bond market. Yields on long-term United States Treasury securities continue to plumb lows not seen in recent years. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note fell to 1.58 percent, a level it last reached in late 2016. The yield on the 30-year bond fell to 2.03 percent, the lowest level on record.
The S&P 500 fell 2.9 per cent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average suffered its worst selloff since October, 2018, tumbling 800.49 points or 3.1 per cent.
Canada’s benchmark index, the S&P/TSX Composite, fell 1.9 per cent, also its biggest one-day decline since October and erasing $47-billion from the index’s market capitalization, according to Bloomberg.
But the bond market, which has been sending gloomy economic signals for much of this year, reflected some of the biggest concerns among many investors as the rush into safe holdings raised bond prices and lowered yields.
The yield on the Government of Canada 10-year bond fell to 1.14 per cent, a 3 1/2-year low and down from a yield of 2.6 per cent in October.
TXPR closed at 584.66, down 1.58% on the day after setting a new 52-week low of 583.85. Volume was 3.33-million, second only to July 19 in the past 30 days.
CPD closed at 11.65, a new 52-week low and down 1.31% on the day. Volume of 158,542 was the fourth-highest of the past thirty days.
ZPR closed at 9.26, a new 52-week low and down 1.70% on the day. Volume of 391,261 was the second-highest of the past 30 days, beaten only by the August 13 volume of 557,210.
Five-year Canada yields were down 6bp to 1.19% today.
PerpetualDiscounts now yield 5.59%, equivalent to 7.27% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates now yield 3.21%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has widened to an astonishing 405bp, a new post-Credit Crunch record (second only to the 445bp recorded November 26, 2008, a day on which
The TXPR index was down 5.94% on the BCE news.
) and significantly wider than the 390bp the reported August 7.
