>>> What to look at today - 14th of November 2023

Most Asian stocks gained before US inflation figures that are forecast to cement the notion that global interest rates are peaking. MSCI’s gauge of regional equities headed for its biggest advance in a week, with South Korea’s shares leading gains. Benchmarks in Japan and Australia also rose. The S&P 500 ticked lower Monday but still held above the key 4,400 mark. A batch of economic reports this week will help shape the direction of markets after a rally driven by bets the rate-hike cycle is almost over. US inflation probably slowed to an annual rate of 3.3% in October from 3.7% in September, according to a Bloomberg survey of economists.  Federal Reserve Vice Chair Philip Jefferson and Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee may deliver further clues on the rate path when they speak at separate events Tuesday. Treasuries were little changed in Asia, with two-year yields hovering just above 5.04%. The dollar traded in a narrow range against its major peers, while the yen stayed near the weakest level since October 2022. Stocks in Hong Kong erased gains, with tech shares leading losses, as concerns lingered over the strength of China’s economic recovery. Tech giants Tencent Holdings Ltd. announces earnings Wednesday and Alibaba Group Holdings Ltd. on Thursday. Chinese President Xi Jinping and his US counterpart Joe Biden are due to meet Wednesday on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco, and there’s some optimism their discussion will help ease tensions between the two economic giants. Oil climbed for a fourth day, the longest run of gains in more than two months, on signs the demand outlook may not be as bad as previously feared. Gold was little changed after rising on Monday. Meanwhile, investors betting rates are peaking drove the S&P 500 to an almost two-month high last week.  The Fed is “pretty much done, but rates are going to stay higher for longer just as an insurance policy,” Laila Pence, chief executive officer at Pence Wealth Management, said on Bloomberg Television. “They’re going to be a lot slower into reducing rates and that will be a little bit of unpleasant for the market next year, but they’ll deal with it.” Oil climbed for a fourth day, the longest run of gains in more than two months, on signs the demand outlook may not be as bad as previously feared.
