US equities rebound in late trading

On Monday, US equities bounced back in the last hour of trading to erase early losses and finish in the green. The 2-year US Treasury yield rose to nearly 4%, its highest level since 2007. However, markets remain on something of a knife edge as investors are waiting for the US Federal Reserve and other central banks to deliver outsized rate hikes given stubbornly high inflation levels. In fact, Japan just reported that inflation rose 3.0% year-on-year, slightly higher than expected. David Kohl, Chief Economist, provides a preview of the upcoming central bank meetings. Dario Messi, Fixed Income Research, talks about the Italian elections this weekend and the likely impact on local bonds as well as equities.
