Good morning!
Futures are slightly lower. There’s not much going on on the economic front this morning, the CPI print is tomorrow morning and there’s the backdrop of the debt ceiling negotiations later this week. For context, during the 2011 debt ceiling stunt the SPY peaked at 134 in May. A deal was reached by August, and the SPY finally bottomed at 113 in September. A decline of about 15% or so that included an S&P downgrade on US long-term debt. As of now the options market isn’t indicated much concern, near term IV in SPY options is in the low teens while June is 16. Those options extending into the Summer will be something to watch if the headlines get nastier as they will be indicative of risk, as well as keeping an eye on the bond market.
Airbnb and Occidental are two of the notable companies reporting after the close.
