That is the the overarching theme today, even in the commodities space. The greenback is running rampant with USD/JPY trading above 131.00, GBP/USD having dipped to fresh lows since June 2020 below 1.2300 (before recovering some ground) and AUD/USD testing a break below 0.7000 for the first time since the end of January.EUR/USD fell to test 1.0500 again before keeping around 1.0520-30 levels now, down 0.2% on the day.Elsewhere, bonds are still selling off on the long-end of the curve as 10-year Treasury yields climb towards 3.17%. That is weighing heavily on tech sentiment and stocks in general as the selloff in equities deepens. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures are down over 2% and European indices are also following suit with similar losses.In the commodities space, gold is down over 1% to $1,858 while oil is also down over 2% with Brent nearing $110 again.It’s pretty much markets being in a sell everything mode and that includes Bitcoin, which is down to its lowest since July last year below $33,000.
