Hi and welcome to this free post where we wanted to touch upon uranium and nuclear energy since it has been a trending topic for a couple of weeks now. We pose 3 questions which we briefly try to answer in order to give you an idea where we are and what is going on in the uranium and nuclear space.
With today’s release of the total Ifo data from the manufacturing sector we wanted to quickly touch upon the main data points we are looking at.

Energy inflation is back on the board, and it will soon spread to PPI and the other components if current trends persist. We take you through the most important take-aways from the report.
With Brent crude trading above 90$ / barrel, markets beg the question if we are about to enter a new bull run in energy markets – indicators could very well point towards it. But watch out for the elephant in the room: Uranium.
We are well under way in our Services Week with our focus on Services and in this note we wanted to highlight the issues central banks could face in a scenario in which manufacturing outpaces services.
Our services week is hot and running, where we share our take on the rebound in manufacturing amidst a weakening in the services sector. Today we will share some of the takes we have looked at, as well as what lies ahead
The Chinese stimulus measures presented last week could provide generalists with another reason to jump the Energy bull train. Does this mean that the energy optimism is close to peak?

Big BRICS meeting in South Africa this week … So inviting Saudi Arabia et al. into the club is one big positive EV right? Well not necessarily

Welcome back to our Wednesday series where we take you through the world of global macro and what to look out for going forward.

Happy start to the week everybody, hope you have had a great weekend! Lots of things are going on in markets right now, perhaps most importantly China, so let’s dive right into that.
This week has been all about the yield curve and a potential steepener here at Steno Research. We’ll end the week on a short note for those seeking alternative ways of playing the steepener.
CPI numbers, here we go! CPI came in at pretty much consensus on all parameters so no surprise there. However, we wouldn’t want to rob you of the chance at some quick deep dives into the numbers.
As highlighted in our data dive yesterday on the curve we see the steepener case as increasingly compelling. From our portfolio, you will also know that we have been moving towards a boomer composition and in the following short note we’ll try to support that thesis.
A weaker USD, a slight rebound in the Manufacturing cycle and still tight supply has re-ignited the energy space alongside the broader commodity trend. There is certainly progress for bulls now.
Earlier this week we identified possible curtain-raisers on near-term developments in US manufacturing, and with parts of the Philly Fed Survey backing our findings, what can be expected for equities?
The sudden weakness in the USD adds to the list of positives for energy and commodities overall. Is the best possible bull setup now in place? We take a look.
