Futures on the front foot at the moment, firmer on the s p 500 after yesterdays alltime high. Look at the moves in japan. The nikkei up by two point five Percentage Points and it is a twoday rally up over six fourth Percentage Points. More stimulus potentially from the japanese government. The nikkei rallied and the yen declined. Weaker japanese yen and the dollar yen trading with a 103 handle an approaching one of four. Cable rates gaining as well. The pound doing very well. It is a firmer story for risk assets, but this is what i find the most interesting. We talked about highly correlated markets, equity markets at record highs and bond yields at record lows. Today is different. Equities on the front, bond on the back, little defensive. Yields going much higher. 30 year yields up seven basis points. Yesterday, there was an auction of threey

One particular phrase,iz ize eisenhower complained when truman called him back, with a he was helping truman get his chestnuts out of fire. And reagan is going to use that same expression and he only would have gotten that through discussions with Dwight Eisenhower. Where did we take a recent course. In recent days theres been smiles in the kremlin. Theyve been warm and friendly. But i wonder if theyre smiling or if theyre laughing at us. Were now ready to talk a Nuclear Weapon treaty that will stop us from protecting our cities as theirs are already protected.

This feedback loop fuels the kind of isolationism weve seen this year from donald trump and Bernie Sanders. It helped explain why there was little talk about Foreign Policy beyond chest bumping about defeati
