# The post-election Donald Trump victory was seen taking a breather, hitting the pause button.
# Blame it on US Bond yields are expressing concerns about inflation in the wake of Donald Trump’s 2024 election win.
Yields were spiking as the bond market continued to worry about what a Trump presidency could mean for the Federal Reserve’s battle with inflation.
Rising US bond yields. (The yield on the 2-year Treasury note was up to 4.367%. The 10-year yield was up to 4.472%).
# According to CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, futures traders are currently pricing in a 64% chance the Fed will cut the Federal Funds rate by a half-percentage point at its next meeting in December and a 36% probability it will hold rates steady.
# COMEX Gold drops towards $2562 per ounce, the lowest in one month, amid pressure from a rally for the US dollar.
# WTI crude oil futures slips towards $67.03 per barrel as concerns about weak demand from China weighed on the market.
NEED TO KNOW:
# Tumbling oil prices at $67 a barrel is the biggest positive catalyst.
# Having said that, Nifty is unlikely to move North as Dalal Street evaluates bearish outlook amidst FII exodus crossing Rs 29,533 crore this November.
Please note, the FIIs camp have pulled out a record Rs 1.25 lakh crore from Dalal Street since Nifty hit its peak at 26277 mark on September 27th.
# Massive destruction to Nifty bulls’ confidence seen after Nifty slipped below 200-DMA in last week’s trade.

1) Weak leads from Wall Street in Friday’s trade, with the S&P 500 dropping 1.3%, the Dow falling by 305 points, and the Nasdaq losing 2.2%.
2) Wall Street fell after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the Fed is in no rush to cut rates citing the economy’s strength, a solid labor market, and persistent inflationary pressures.
3) The post-election Donald Trump’s victory rally lost steam.
4) Rising US bond yields. (The yield on the 2-year Treasury note was up to 4.367%. The 10-year yield was up to 4.472%).
