Reflection on YesterdayMarch 18, 2013
Shocking plans in Europe to impose sweeping taxes on all Cyprian savings accounts to pay for a bailout of the island pulled European exchanges lower and pulled the Dow down 0.4 percent to 14,452. The euro lost nearly one percent and is back under $1.3000 at $1.2955.
But demand for safety has been limited with gold up only $10 to $1,605 and with the 10-year US Treasury yield down a modest four basis points to 1.95 percent. Lost in the session due to the Cypress news was a weak housing market index that points to unwanted bumps ahead for the new home market.
