Stocks and currencies seesawed on Wednesday after a rocket that struck inside the Polish border fueled fears of an escalation of the war in Ukraine. European equity futures fell, as did shares in Japan, Hong Kong and Australia, amid significant volatility in intraday prices. US futures pared early declines to trade slightly higher.
The euro gained, reversing earlier losses, after US President Joe Biden said the missile was unlikely to have been fired by Russia. The yen weakened as haven demand waned. The Associated Press cited unnamed US officials as saying initial findings pointed to the projectile being fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian one.
The Polish zloty trimmed its losses against the dollar while a gauge of the greenback traded within a broad range through the day, underscoring investor uncertainty. Treasury yields saw gains after recent declines that were made in line with pricing for a slower pace of interest hikes from the Federal Reserve. Oil and gold both slipped. The cautious trading Wednesday contrasted with more upbeat sentiment on Tuesday when US shares rallied after producer price index data fell short of forecasts, easing inflation concerns.
