In the United States, equity indices closed the week negatively. The S&P 500 fell -0.3% for the week, the Nasdaq just -0.1%, and the Dow Jones declined -1%. In 2025, the indices have accumulated gains of +6.4%, +6.6% and +4.3% respectively.
This week the focus will be on the June inflation data. Prices are expected to have moved +0.3% month-on-month and +2.6% year-on-year, while the core measure, which excludes food and energy, is expected to be around +2.9% year-on-year. On the other hand, the Q2 2025 balance sheet reporting season is also starting, which will be particularly important to see the real effect that companies may have had from the application of import tariffs.
Finally, US Treasury yields were little changed. The 1 year bond closed with a yield of 4.07%, unchanged from the previous week. The 3-year bond closed at 3.86%, up from 3.84% previously, and the 10-year bond advanced to 4.42% from 4.25% the previous Friday.
