The futures were trading higher Wednesday, after another wild back-and-forth day on Wall Street. When Tuesday’s final bell rang, the Dow Jones industrials, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all closed much lower, after the consumer confidence report came in very weak, falling to the lowest levels since February of 2021.

An early rally that faded by mid-morning was chalked up to reports that China has shortened the quarantine period for visitors coming to the country, and Beijing reported zero new COVID-19 cases for the first time since February. Another positive data point was that some major U.S. banks raised their dividends after posting positive stress-test data.

Oil was higher on reports that French President Macron informed President Biden that he was informed that the United Arab Emirates is “at maximum” output and neighboring Saudi Arabia probably can add only about 150,000 barrels a day, which will do nothing to lower soaring prices at the pump.

Yields across the Treasury curve were up once again, as the five-year note yield continues to trade higher than the 10-year security. The 30-year benchmark bond closed at 3.33%, and the 30-year mortgage was seen at 5.83%. Both gold and Bitcoin closed lower.
