One indicator of a slowdown is declining commodity costs. Crude oil futures are down round -2.5%. Iron Ore is down -5% and metal rebar is down -3.21%.

Inflation numbers are due out Wednesday and are forecast to be 8.1% YoY (in response to headline CPI). However blended with a slowing international financial system, we get the feared “STAGFLATION.”

In the meantime, the S&P 500 index futures are down round 1.726% for Monday open. Asian markets already were given clobbered with the Grasp Seng down nearly -4%.

At the bond facet, the 10Y Treasury Word yield rose to a few.20% early within the morning, however has retreated to a few.1447% as of 8:40am EST.

Each inventory and bond marketplace volatility measures are expanding.

So, is it a Blue Monday impact? Or international stagflation?
