We see the restart, stabilizing U.S. Treasury yields and relatively cheap valuations boosting emerging market (EM) assets after a choppy start to 2021. U.S. stocks hit record highs and 10-year Treasury yields fell to the lowest level in more than a month. Major U.S. banks reported pos...
On an unadjusted basis, new jobless claims declined by 152,833 to 612,919. Seasonally adjusted claims declined by 193,000 to 576,000 (with last week's number being adjusted upward by 25,000). Continuing claims, which historically lag initial claims by a few weeks to several months...
