the previous session. Worries over a potential U.S. recession receded after
U.S. Treasury yields rose. Nonetheless, sentiments remained fragile over
inversion of the 10‐year U.S. Treasury yield curve. Today (as of Mar 27),
Asian markets opened mostly lower on lingering concerns over the
outlook for the global economy. While Nikkei was trading lower 0.64%,
Hang Seng was up 0.39%, respectively (as at 8 a.m. IST).
As per the last close, European markets increased as easing fears about

China trade negotiations outweighed concerns about Brexit.
As per the last close, U.S markets rose after a range bound session. Rally
was attributed to a rebound by U.S. Treasury yields. A recent inversion of
the yield curve raised concerns about an impending recession.
