Yellen opens mouth, inserts foot.

Today's slide deck: https://bit.ly/3eRPMyd   - Today we look at yesterday's ugly session in the US equity market, already in motion before it was badly aggravated by oddly direct comments on the possible need to raise interest rates from US Treasury Secretary Yellen. Her later clarifications helped reverse some of the damage, but the Nasdaq 100 is limping. Elsewhere, we look at soaring commodities prices, including perspective on copper, incoming earnings reports, disappointing precious metals (once again) and more. Today with Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX. Intro and outro music by AShamaluevMusic
