Looking for deeper insight on markets?  In tonight’s Closer sent to Bespoke Institutional clients, we begin with a look at the bearish divergence between the VIX and the S&P 500 as 2-year notes have become increasingly volatile. We also show WTI’s test of its 200-DMA as well as other similar movements in crude throughout the past 20 years. Switching over to macro data, we then show the divergence of core PCE versus other measures. We also look at today’s release of productivity and cost data. We delve a bit deeper into this to look at what could be driving the increase in productivity. We finish with a recap of today’s new orders, sales, inventories, and durable goods data.
