Morning Notes
US Futures are slightly lower this morning while European stocks also trade lower by nearly -1% after yesterday’s sharp move lower in result of the FOMC minutes which suggested a rate hike in June. As probability increases of a June rate hike, the dollar strengthened which undercut crude and gold prices into late day trading. Asian stocks closed mostly lower.
