Global Yields Threaten European Equities
Last week we discussed the underperformance of European banks and the potential implications in the near term for risk-taking behavior.
This week, these suspicions were confirmed when price fell back below a key level, confirming a failed breakout. Similarly, the MSCI United Kingdom ETF, one of the most important economies within Europe, was unable to break above a significant resistance level around 34. Now, both are trapped below overhead supply.
If European financials and UK stocks are trapped below their pre-covid highs, it’s consistent with an environment where markets remain messier for longer and risk assets are vulnerable.
