Stocks were mostly weaker on Tuesday, with only the Dow managing to close in positive territory.

Before climbing back above it, the Shanghai Composite slipped below 3,000 for the first time since April on concerns the govt will step up measures to tame inflation.

As is the global trend it was risks to inflation outlook which the central bank believes to have shifted to the upside. With rates expect to stay unchanged for the near futures (CPI likely peak at 3.0%) we expect to the Cad spike briefly above channel resistance before to trend down roughly to 0.9900 support.
In Japan a wealth of data was released this morning. Most importantly was the second estimate for GDP q1 which was revised up to 1.0% q/q (annualized GDP 4.0% vs. 3.8% exp) as capex was better than expected. However, the positive data did little to prevent the Jpy selling as the overall sentiment on the Japanese economic outlook is decidedly bearish. In addition the recent massive upswing in yields will undercut any Jpy potential.
In Australia Westpac’s consumer confidence sentiment index fell to -5.6% vs. 2.7% prior reading. The data briefly weakened the Aud however the market will be especially keen on RBA Governor Stevens' speech on Friday believing that it will help them guild interest rate expectations (market are currently pricing in almost 2 25bp hike in 2008).
Data from the UK will capture the markets attention in European session. Unemployment rate is expect to stay stable whoever with claimant count on the rise the risk to labor is toward the upside. April Trade data is expected to widen reversing Marches narrowing.
