>>> What to look at today - 17th of May 2022

Asian stocks rose Tuesday amid a jump in some technology firms and as investors assessed China’s efforts to stamp out Covid. An Asian share index rose for a third day -- it’s longest winning streak since mid-March. US and European futures bounced back after a Wall Street drop.  China’s tech companies jumped on optimism Beijing may ease up on a yearlong clampdown following a meeting between regulators and corporate giants. Meanwhile, Shanghai reported three days of zero community transmission, a milestone that could lead officials to start unwinding a punishing lockdown. Flareups elsewhere in China showed how hard it is to tackle the omicron strain. A challenging global economic outlook amid elevated food and fuelcosts and tightening monetary settings continues to shape sentiment. Oil has jumped to about $114 a barrel and an index of agricultural prices is at a record high. Treasury yields climbed and the dollar held a retreat. Cryptocurrencies weathered the latest stablecoin turbulence, leaving Bitcoin near $30,000. US data Monday showed New York state manufacturing activity unexpectedly shrank in May for the second time in three months. That followed Chinese figures revealing a collapse in economic activity due to Covid-linked curbs.
The economic reports have fanned concerns of a downturn in the global economy alongside persistent price pressures that are forcing the Federal Reserve and a slew of other central banks to tighten monetary policy.
