Stephen Innes, Chief Global Market Strategist at Axi, in an explanatory note to Nairametrics, spoke on the macros that could disrupt global stocks in the coming week. He said:

“Policymakers need to bridge between this week’s positive vaccine news and mass rollout. A timetable for immunization in the US, for example, could encourage bipartisan efforts to support consumers and firms through 2021. Meanwhile, monetary policymakers can afford to maintain extreme accommodation until CPI inflation rises materially above target.

Related to ongoing policy support, social mobility restrictions will likely remain in place to varying degrees for months to come. Risk assets require carefully calibrated monetary and fiscal policy support for this period.

They will be increasingly sensitive to insufficient policy support as the virus spreads ahead of a vaccine rollout.”
