U.S. stocks repeat intraday turn down Tesla fell more than 11% Natural gas soared nearly 50% a day

First there is the "eagle" Fed Chairman Powell, followed by the supply chain warning Tesla, the recent rebound of the US stock market has been repeatedly frustrated.

Despite the new outbreak caused by the Opichron virus, THE US GDP growth in the fourth quarter was still higher than expected. The three major U.S. stock indexes opened high collectively, but failed to rebound successfully for the second consecutive day due to intraday turns. Some blue-chip tech stocks have become the culprits. Supply chain problems are expected to continue throughout the year and Tesla, which has postponed the release of new models, opened low and went low, expanding the midday decline to more than 10%, and Tesla's sector led the decline in S&P. In addition, Apple turned down in the afternoon session, and Intel, whose earnings guidance was lower than expected, fell about 7% intraday, and chip stocks overall underperformed the market, which also increased the downward pressure on US stocks. However, after the news that fund mogul Bill Ackman recently bought 3.1 million shares, Netflix surged more than 8% intraday, becoming a rare highlight of technology stocks; Apple announced that its fourth-quarter revenue was better than expected and reached a new high after hours, and it stopped falling back after hours.

The day after Powell signaled plenty of room for rate hikes and possibly faster and earlier balance sheet reductions, the rate-sensitive 2-year Treasury yield continued to refresh nearly two-year highs, while benchmark 10-year Treasury yields fell back, at one point 1.80 percent, more than 8 basis points from Wednesday's intraday high; the dollar index moved higher, hitting the 97.00 mark for the first time in two years.

Among commodities, U.S. natural gas futures emerged as the biggest winner on Thursday, with the natural gas futures market staging a classic short-selling on the day the February contract expired, with futures prices soaring nearly 50 percent in one day and more than 70 percent intraday. Under the pressure of a stronger dollar, gold futures plunged 2% for the first time in three weeks and closed below the $1,800 psychological mark for the first time in more than two weeks; U.S. crude oil flattened more than 1% of intraday gains and turned down, and Brent crude oil both fell away from more than seven-year highs; and most industrial metals such as Rendsey fell back.

In the European market, under the hawkish posture of the Federal Reserve, the yields of government bonds in some European countries rose further, and after domestic political groups hinted that they wanted to speed up the consultation of presidential candidates, the price of Italian government bonds rebounded intraday and the yield stopped rising and fell back. Defensive sectors such as utilities weighed on the pressure to support European stocks for three consecutive days, but the rally was significantly more moderate than on Wednesday. Deutsche Bank led the rise in the pan-European stock index constituents, which unexpectedly did not lose money in the fourth quarter, recorded a sixth consecutive quarter of profit and profits almost tripled a year ago, and last year's full-year profit hit a new high in 2011. The technology sector bucked the trend, with Sap, Europe's largest software company and German enterprise software giant SAP, which agreed to buy a majority stake in U.S. financial science company Taulia.
