Global Markets: Shares in Europe and Asia declined on Friday following the sharp sell-off on Wall Street yesterday. Monetary policy remains a key dictator of market sentiment. Global bond yields have surged in recent weeks as investors react to interest rate hikes from the Fed and the Bank of England. The European Central Bank has yet to follow suit, but momentum appears to be building for a summer hike. US stocks dropped sharply on Thursday amid a broad sell-off, as investor sentiment cratered in the face of concerns that the Federal Reserves interest rate hike the previous day would not be enough to tame surging inflation. The focus now shifts to the U.S. Labor Departments closely watched monthly employment report on Friday for clues on labor market strength and its impact on monetary policy.
