    Initial claims for the week ending July 15 decreased by 9,000 to 228,000 (consensus 240,000). That is the lowest level of initial claims since mid-May when the S&P 500 was around 4,100 or 11.4% lower than where it is today. Continuing jobless claims for the week ending July 8 increased 33,000 to 1.754 million.

    The key takeaway from this report is that it connotes continued strength in the labor market and presumably not much fear about an imminent and material drop-off in end demand knowing that initial jobless claims are a leading indicator.

    Treasury yields turned higher in response to the data.

    The 2-yr note yield, at 4.81% just before 8:30 a.m. ET, is up nine basis points to 4.85%.
    The 10-yr note yield, at 3.78% before 8:30 a.m. ET, is up nine basis points to 3.83%.

    Nothing mixed about the yen’s performance, however. It is decidedly weak today (USD/JPY +1.3% to 141.82) following a Bloomberg report that indicates BOJ officials don’t see much of an urgent need at this point to address the side effects of the yield curve control program.
    This report comes in front of the BOJ policy meeting next week, so it has tamped down speculation about a shift in policy at that meeting.
    Japan’s June CPI was up 3.3% yr/yr, which was a little weaker than expected but still comfortably above the BOJ’s 2.0% target.

    Japan’s June National CPI 3.3% yr/yr (expected 3.5%; last 3.2%) and Core CPI 3.3% yr/yr (expected 3.3%; last 3.2%)

    South Korea’s June PPI -0.2% m/m (expected -0.3%; last 0.1%) and -0.2% yr/yr (expected 0.1%; last 3.3%)

    China is reportedly pushing plans to help stimulate demand for autos and electronic products.
    A weak post-COVID recovery has been evident in Chinese data, yet it has flowed through to trade data elsewhere, such as South Korea’s exports, which were down 15.2% yr/yr for the first 20 days of July. Imports were down 28.0% yr/yr.
