The Chinese side urgently summoned the chief minister of the Japanese Embassy in China to lodge a solemn representation, expressing strong dissatisfaction and protest. China pointed out that Japan bears historical responsibility for the South China Sea issue and has not yet settled accounts, and has no right to make irresponsible remarks. Japans egregious words and actions challenge the post-war international order and international rule of law, adhere to double standards, distort facts, undermine peace and stability in the South China Sea, and violate the common interests and wishes of regional countries.

Consumer Cyclical Stocks Drop Amid Fears of a Recession

As traders continue to pay attention to the aggressive Fed, the S&P 500 is still under pressure. A further deterrent for markets was today's Initial Jobless Claims data, which showed that 213,000 Americans applied for jobless benefits in a week. The Fed is being forced to boost rates rapidly in an effort to temper demand because the employment market is still tight.


Consumer cyclical equities, which were among the losses yesterday, are now under significant pressure. In today's trading session, shares of Expedia, Etsy, and Caesars Entertainment are down 5–8%. When customers cut down on "unnecessary" expenditures, the market gets ready for a recession.


Treasury rates are steadily increasing, which is negative for technology equities. The yield on 10-year Treasuries is now attempting to rise beyond the 3.70% mark. Such yields last seen in 2011 before this.

Among the greatest losers in the IT industry are AMD and NVIDIA. Traders worry that falling PC demand would adversely affect their performance.


The price of energy equities is rising right now. Refining stocks like Valero Energy, Phillips 66, and Marathon Petroleum are among the market leaders.


From a broad perspective, the market is still gloomy. Rising Treasury rates show that bond market participants are continuing to be ready for the Fed's aggressive rate increases. Stocks can come under greater pressure if Treasury rates reach fresh highs.
