News: What you need to know about the markets | | | | China stimulus; Turkey reaction; Oil after OPEC | By Alanna Petroff | | 1. China stimulus: China is freeing up more than $100 billion to help its economy, which is facing fears of a slowdown and an escalating trade war. | | The country's central bank said late Sunday that it is set to release as much as 700 billion yuan ($107 billion) into the financial system by reducing the amount of deposits that most commercial banks are required to hold. | | The move to cut the requirement by half a percentage point comes as the Chinese government is dealing with an emerging trade war with the United States and concerns its economy is weakening faster than expected. | | 2. Turkey reaction: Currency traders are focused on the Turkish lira after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan emerged victorious in a high-stakes election on Sunday. | | The lira surged by as much as 3% on Monday. | | The struggling currency's rally could be brief. Erdogan unnerved investors during the campaign by suggesting he would seek to influence monetary policy. | | "All eyes will now be on Erdogan's appointment of ministers and markets will be watch closely if pragmatic reformists are appointed," said Paul Greer, a portfolio manager at Fidelity International. | | 3. Oil remains elevated: US crude futures were trading at nearly $69 per barrel after OPEC and other major producers, including Russia, pledged to increase production. | | OPEC and its allies are targeting a production increase of up to 1 million barrels a day. But some cartel members will struggle to increase their output. | | Oil analysts are worried that the additional supply won't be enough to satisfy rising global demand. | | 4. Stock market overview: There's a negative mood in the markets thanks to continued fears over trade. | | US stock futures declined ahead of the open. | | Many European markets dropped in early trading. Asian markets ended the day with losses, with many down by more than 1%. | | The Dow Jones industrial average gained 0.5% on Friday, but still posted a loss of 2% for the week. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both shed nearly 1% last week. | | Before the Bell newsletter: Key market news. In your inbox. Subscribe now! | | 5.
