<p>The futures traded higher Thursday, after yet another slow trading day across Wall Street and as we limp toward the end of 2022. All the major indexes closed the day on the downside, as a surge in COVID-19 infections in China dampened some of the positive reopening news that emerged over the weekend and earlier this week. Typically, much of Wall Street will not be truly back in the saddle until next Tuesday, so research and economic commentary will be somewhat muted until the financial world returns for the new year.</p>
<p>Treasury yields were modestly higher during the Wednesday session. The 30-year benchmark bond is closing in on the 4% level for the first time in over a month. The 10-year note closed at 3.88%, while the two-year finished Wednesday at 4.36%. The inversion between the securities has narrowed as we finish 2022, but bond market traders still view the ongoing inversion as a recession indicator.</p>
<p>Both Brent and West Texas Intermediate crude closed lower, after racing higher last week and to start this week. Production issues due to the storm and reports that Russia did not consult with OPEC over the price cap retaliation were cited as reasons for the weakness. Natural gas followed crude oil, down almost 10% on the same storm-related production issues. Gold and Bitcoin also closed lower Wednesday.</p>
