Factory orders highlight the US economic calendar, the Fed is now in the blackout

Bitcoin is flying today and the US dollar is stronger. There is some moderate risk aversion with yields up a couple basis points and stocks giving some back. Gold took a moonshot to a record 2135 in early Asian trading but has given it all back and is trading flat at $2068.

Economic data isn’t going to be a big driver today with only the factory orders report at 10 am ET but we’ll get ISM services and non-farm payrolls later this week.

The Fed is in the blackout period so the noise will be limited.
