Financial Markets Daily Report23 septiembre 2025
Investors kicked-off the week on a cautious tone. US Treasury yields continued to tick slightly higher, following the tendency of the last sessions. Global equities were mixed, rising in the US and declining across the euro area. A study published by the ECB found eurozone consumers have been shifting away from US goods and reducing overall discretionary spending.
Commodities markets dropped, with the exception of gold, that continued to be the safe haven of investors and reached a new record-high price. Oil prices marginally decreased as concerns on oversupply outweighed geopolitical tensions. The dollar weakened against the euro, reaching 1.18 EUR/USD.
In Asia, the Chinese stock market rose after the PBoC’s decision of keeping interest rates constant, while the Japanese Nikkei 225 equity index rebounded after the large contraction from the previous session on the back of the BOJ’s decision to reduce its holdings risky assets.
