MARKET COMMENTS


Dec E-mini S&Ps (ESZ16 -0.14%) this morning are down -3.75 points (-0.18%). Monday's closes: S&P 500 +2.22%, Dow Jones +2.08%, Nasdaq +2.43%. The S&P 500 on Monday closed sharply higher on the improved prospects for Mrs. Clinton to win Tuesday's U.S. presidential election after the FBI on Sunday said she did nothing illegal in the handling of her emails. There was also strength in mining stocks after the price of copper climbed +1.96% to a 7-3/4 month high.


Dec 10-year T-notes (ZNZ16 +0.06%) this morning are up +3 ticks. Monday's closes: TYZ6 -13.0, FVZ6 -7.75. Dec 10-year T-notes on Monday closed lower on reduced safe-haven demand with the rally in stocks and on increased expectations for a Fed rate hike with the higher odds for Mrs. Clinton to become president after the FBI's announcement on Sunday absolving her of legal responsibility for her email server.


The dollar index (DXY00 +0.03%) this morning is down -0.022 (-0.02%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.0001 (-0.01%). USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is up +0.31 (+0.30%). Monday's closes: Dollar index +0.716 (+0.74%), EUR/USD -0.0100 (-0.90%), USD/JPY +1.34 (+1.30%). The dollar index on Monday closed higher on the improved prospects for a Clinton win in Tuesday's U.S. presidential election, which boosted U.S. stocks and bolstered the chance for a Fed rate hike next month. USD/JPY rallied on reduced safe-haven demand for the yen after stock prices rallied sharply.



Dec crude oil prices (CLZ16 -0.53%) are down -7 cents (-0.16%) and Dec gasoline (RBZ16 -0.50%) is -0.0038 (-0.28%). Monday's closes: Dec crude +0.82 (+1.86%), Dec gasoline -0.0096 (-0.70%). Dec crude oil and gasoline on Monday settled mixed with Dec gasoline at a 1-1/2 month low. Crude oil prices were undercut by the rally in the dollar and by reduced gasoline supply concerns after Colonial Pipeline restarted its largest gasoline line that had been closed for 6 days after a fire and explosion in Alabama. Crude oil prices were boosted by a 5.0 magnitude earthquake that struck near Cushing, OK, delivery point of WTI futures, which prompted some pipeline operators to shut down operations there as a precaution. Crude oil prices were also boosted by comments from OPEC Secretary General Barkindo who said that Russia is "on board" with an OPEC agreement to limit production to help rebalance the market.The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
