Event risk elevated. Pre-release biases are conditional on the print.

Today in plain English

Markets begin the session focused on Eurozone ecb main refinancing rate. A result above consensus would likely support the underlying macro factor while a softer print would favor the opposite reaction. Because the release has not occurred, related biases remain conditional. Nonfarm Payrolls printed 254K versus 190K expected — a upside surprise that is being reflected in the risk-sensitive tilt of SPX, NDX, DXY.
