Today we discuss a weak US equity market session yesterday as sentiment bounced more than expected in August, at least according to the Conference Board US Consumer Confidence survey. We also look at a far better expansion in Job openings than expected and an interesting measure of "sticky CPI" that continues to rise in the US. In commodities, we discuss the drop in oil prices, and plans possibly afoot in Europe to cap power prices. The equities focus is on BYD, Chinese lithium names, and MongoDB. Today's pod features Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.
