  • Bukele Claims Win in El Salvador Congressional Election

    (Bloomberg) -- El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele claimed victory for his allies in legislative elections on Sunday, as the nation waits for official results to be published.With just 0.2% of ballot sheets tallied four hours after polls closed, Bukele’s Nuevas Ideas party led with 63%, according to official TV. The Gana party, which is allied to the president, had 6%, while the Arena and FMLN, which dominated the country for decades, had 26% between them.Bukele published a tweet saying “victory” with images of fireworks exploding.A big win for Bukele would concentrate power in the 39-year-old leader, making it easier for him to advance his agenda, issue debt, and reach a deal with the International Monetary Fund. It would also alarm critics, including some U.S. lawmakers, who say the Central American nation is sliding toward authoritarianism.Since his election in 2019, Bukele has repeatedly clashed with the legislature, which until now has been controlled by his opponents, and last year even sent troops into the building.Investors are betting that with a strong result, the government will seek a deal with the IMF. That would likely include fiscal austerity to reign in a deficit that widened to more than 8% of GDP last year. Such a program would require approval from two-thirds of congress.A big victory could also set the stage for constitutional changes, a worrisome development for critics who see Bukele amassing excessive power.Why El Salvador Vote Is and Isn’t About Its President: QuickTakeVice President Felix Ulloa has said he hopes to present constitutional reforms to congress later this year, which may include changes to presidential term limits. Under current law, reforms would require approval by two consecutive legislatures, meaning not until 2024.Bukele’s attacks on corruption, and the conservative Arena party and the leftist FMLN, who between them have dominated El Salvador for decades, have helped keep his approval rating around 90% since taking office. His government also boasted about its harsh treatment of jailed gang members, winning approval of some people in one of the world’s most crime-ridden countries.

  • Bonds Rebound; Asia Stocks, U.S. Equity Futures Up: Markets Wrap

    (Bloomberg) -- Sovereign bonds extended a rebound, U.S. and European equity futures rose and the dollar dipped Monday, signaling somewhat calmer markets after the turmoil sparked by last week’s slide in government debt.Treasury yields fluctuated around 1.40% and Australian and New Zealand debt surged. Australia’s 10-year yield slid the most in a year after the central bank doubled purchases at its regular bond-buying operation, in a fresh bid to pacify fixed-income markets.The recovery in bonds helped S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 equity futures advance, while stocks in Japan, Australia and Hong Kong jumped. On Friday, the S&P 500 slipped and tech stocks staged a modest rebound as Treasuries rallied.Most Group-of-10 currencies climbed, with the Australian and New Zealand dollars among the outperformers despite data showing China’s economic recovery slowed in February. Commodities rallied as oil breached $62 a barrel.“With a lot of the move in yields due to the improving growth outlook and reopening prospects, risk appetite is holding up,” said Esty Dwek, head of global strategy at Natixis Investment Manager Solutions. “The pace and scale of the move in yields is more important than the absolute level, suggesting that as long as the move is gradual, risk assets should be able to absorb them.”Global bonds have stabilized from last week’s sharp losses after central banks from Asia to Europe provided reassurance that policy support remains in place. That’s helped to pull Treasury yields back from their highest level in a year and put a floor under stocks.Investors have become concerned about the prospect of faster inflation leading to tighter policy amid the prospective recovery from the pandemic. Traders are ramping up positioning for the Federal Reserve to start raising interest rates as soon as next year.“The market is testing the Fed and global central banks as to how serious they are here,” Al Lord, Lexerd Capital Management chief executive officer, said on Bloomberg TV. “There are growth expectations and growing inflation concerns, and that’s playing out in the markets.”Over the weekend, the U.S. House of Representatives passed President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion Covid-19 aid package.
