Stocks Fall as Dollar Remains Under Pressure
Dow industrials on track for third straight session of declines

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell Monday, putting the index on track for its third consecutive session of declines.
The blue-chip index fell 63 points, or 0.3%, to 21517 shortly after the opening bell. The S&P 500 shed 0.2% and the Nasdaq Co mposite was little changed.
The dollar wavered after the WSJ Dollar Index fell to its lowest close since Sept. 30 on Friday. Concern about policy direction from the White House and Capitol Hill since the failure to repeal the Affordable Care Act and investigations into contacts with Russians before November’s election have helped fuel dollar selling.
Sentiment on the dollar will stay negative until there is a string of upbeat U.S. economic data along with a hawkish Federal Reserve and a dovish European Central Bank, said Kay Van-Petersen, a macro strategist at Saxo Bank in Singapore.
The Fed is scheduled to meet this week. Economists don’t expect a change in the fed funds target rate, but the central bank could announce the beginning of its balance-sheet reduction.
The euro touched its highest intraday level since January 2015 during the early Asian trading session Monday, above $1.168, before falling back. The euro was recently down 0.2% against the dollar.
A stronger euro has knock-on effects for the European economy and can weigh on earnings expectations for export-oriented firms.
“If the euro remains at or above current levels, it is likely increasingly to have a bearing on the euro area economic outlook, weighing somewhat on GDP growth via net trade,” said Chris Scicluna, head of economic research at Daiwa Capital Markets Europe.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index fell 0.2%, weighed down by a 1.1% fall in Britain’s FTSE 100 and a 0.1% drop in Germany’s DAX.
Fresh economic data for the eurozone on Monday suggested the economy grew slightly more slowly than analysts had expected during July. The IHS Markit flash purchasing managers index, a key business survey, came in at 55.8. That is lower than the 56.2 analysts had expected, and a six-month low for the index. Any figure above 50 indicates an economy is growing.

Shares of major European auto makers were among the hardest hit on Monday, after the European Commission’s confirmation that it was assessing accusations of coordination efforts by rival companies to manipulate diesel engines to reduce emissions.
Shares in Volkswagen , Daimler and BMW fell by 2.9%, 3.6% and 3.2%, respectively.
Oil prices rose Monday after a decline on Friday as the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries continued to grapple with the growing challenges to removing what it sees as a global oversupply of oil from the market.
Saudi Arabian oil minister Khalid al-Falih said the country would limit its oil exports and added that he wanted other countries to follow suit. Despite a deal struck last year to take out almost 1.8 million barrels of crude oil from the global market, prices remain stubbornly low.
U.S. crude rose 1.3% to $46.38 a barrel Monday.
Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average closed 0.6% lower. Among the biggest stock decliners in Japan were export-reliant companies, as is often the case when the yen strengthens, since that eats into such firms’ earnings.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index rose 0.5% after its nine-session winning streak ended Friday.

Saudi Arabia Cuts Oil Exports as OPEC Looks to Stem Crude-Price Slide
Nigeria also accepts production limits at meeting of energy producers in Russia

ST. PETERSBURG—The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and big oil-producing allies made a rare acknowledgment on Monday: They are part of the reason oil prices are low.
Until now, OPEC had largely blamed U.S. shale drillers for low prices, saying American producers ramped up output as the cartel carried out a cut. But on Monday, OPEC officials said they were looking inward and contemplating a crackdown on countries that aren’t keeping their promises to cut output.
Saudi Arabia, the world’s top oil exporter, announced it would go further than cutting its production and would also limit its exports at 6.6 million barrels a day in August. Energy minister Khalid al-Falih said he wanted other countries to follow suit, noting troubling figures that showed some countries were still exporting huge amounts of oil.
OPEC also secured production commitment from Nigeria, a cartel member exempted from last year’s deal among OPEC and 10 non-OPEC producers to withhold nearly 2% of global oil supply from the market.
Crude prices rose after the meeting. Brent crude, the international benchmark, was up 1.26% at $48.92, while West Texas Intermediate, the benchmark for U.S. oil, was trading up 0.87% at $46.16.
The announcements came after a frenzy of meetings here in St. Petersburg over the weekend and a meeting of big producers such as Russia at the Four Seasons Hotel. It all amounted to an admission that prices have remained mired below $50 a barrel in part because the coalition hasn’t kept its promises so far.
“This is a collective effort,” Mr. Falih said after the meeting, saying he had spoken to countries that haven’t been cutting to “forcefully demand participation and the same level of commitment…We are not going to just sit back and watch.”
Mr. Falih is under pressure to keep the OPEC deal from falling apart and raise prices higher, the Journal has reported. The Saudi kingdom is preparing to publicly list its state oil company in 2018, and its valuation will depend in part on oil prices.
Mr. Falih has become increasingly concerned about the deal as prices kept falling in recent weeks and bad news kept rolling in, according to people familiar with the matter. It culminated last week with tanker-tracking firm Petro-Logistics reporting that OPEC output rose above 33 million barrels a day this month, up 145,000 barrels a day from a month ago.
Even if Monday’s news gives oil prices a lasting lift, OPEC still has to worry about U.S. shale producers taking advantage and throttling up their own output. That is what happened after last year’s OPEC deal, and the flood of new oil from the U.S. is one reason oil prices remain depressed.
But a new Saudi cut to its exports could have a real effect on the balance of supply and demand, said Bjarne Schieldrop, a commodity analyst with Nordic bank SEB. The kingdom exported an average of 7.2 million barrels a day from January to May, he said, so the new action would theoretically remove an additional 600,000 barrels a day from the market.
But Saudi Arabia generally has to reduce exports in the summer anyway, when it faces rising domestic demand for crude oil to be burned to create electricity for air conditioning.
The limit on Nigeria is less likely to have immediate market effects.
Nigeria has agreed to limit its production to 1.8 million barrels a day, OPEC officials said. The African country produced about 1.6 million barrels a day in June, giving it substantial room to keep increasing.
Another OPEC member exempted from last year’s deal, Libya, has a target of 1.25 million barrels a day, still higher than its June production of 820,000 million barrels a day.
Beyond Libya and Nigeria, Iraq, OPEC’s second-biggest producer, and the United Arab Emirates have been pumping more than their agreed-upon limits.
We’ve had very serious discussions with those countries that are not performing as well as others,” Mr. Falih said, saying there were unspecified “mechanisms in place to bring those countries in line.”
Analysts have warned that any new production cuts from OPEC would likely just help American shale producers. First it would cede market share to the U.S. from OPEC. Second, any price rally would likely be quickly killed by new shale production.
Mr. Falih’s focus on exports was new. He pointed to discrepancies between countries’ production and export figures, calling the difference “a matter of concern.”
For example, OPEC’s production fell by 920,000 barrels a day from October to June, according to the International Energy Agency. But its exports were only 120,000 barrels a day lower in June compared with October, according to Kpler, a ship-tracking firm.
So even with OPEC cutting production, it was still sending roughly the same amount of oil into the global market in June as it was in October, the month used as the baseline level for the production deal.
“Exports have become the key metric for financial markets and we need to find a way to reconcile credible export data with production data,” Mr. Falih said.
“We need to continue monitoring” the implementation of the cuts, said Alexander Novak, Russia’s energy minister.

Greece Returns to International Bond Markets
Greece is seeking to swap a bond coming due in 2019 for a new one that will mature in 2022

Greece said it would return to international bond markets for the first time in three years, seeking to swap a bond coming due in 2019 for a new one that will mature in 2022.
The country on Monday offered holders of a 2019 bond with a 4.75% coupon the potential option to cash in their securities; it will complete the deal if it gets enough demand for replacement bonds. It hasn’t determined the price and terms for the replacements.
The deal is expected to close Tuesday.
Greece isn’t expected to raise extra debt in the deal; the stretching out of maturities is meant as a show of confidence—and a way to deal with a big hump of debt repayments in 2019.
The 2019 bond has just over €4 billion ($4.67 billion) outstanding, and bondholders who participate in the swap will have made a hefty return: Greece will pay €102.60 per €100 face value—close to the market price on Friday. A year ago, the bond was trading below €90.
The banks mandated as joint lead managers are BNP Paribas , BofA Merrill Lynch, Citi, Deutsche Bank , Goldman Sachs and HSBC .
Athens has been shut out of international bond markets since 2010, except for a brief window in 2014. The move aims to build on the positive momentum created since the government concluded the bailout negotiations with its international creditors, recent upgrades by credit-rating firms and a rally in Greek bonds in recent weeks.
All told, Greece has about €34 billion in outstanding euro-denominated bonds in private hands—a mere 10% of its total debt load.
The government is hoping that the swap, along with a few more similar moves before the end of its bailout, could mark the beginning of the end of eight years of economic and social upheaval
Greece’s current bailout program ends in July 2018. After that, the country needs to be able to fund itself from the capital markets, or it would require another bailout to remain solvent. The European Union, including Germany, would like to bring to an end the bailouts that have caused great political friction for the currency bloc, according to EU officials.
Greece tapped the markets in 2014 with five-year and a three-year bond issues in April and July 2014. The first transaction exceeded expectations and the issue was seven times oversubscribed, raising €3 billion at a yield of 4.95%, but the next sale just found enough buyers, raising $1.5 billion. Later in 2014, Greece also persuaded some Treasury-bill holders to exchange their bills for the bonds.
Before its bailout era begun, Greece was last in the markets in April 2010, when it sold seven-year debt at a 6% yield. That issue was barely covered by investor demand, and within weeks Greece was forced to seek aid from its eurozone peers and the International Monetary Fund. It has since then agreed to three bailout programs.
Greece still has a giant volume of debt, though the lion’s share of it is owed to its rescuers, doesn’t come due for many years and sports a low interest rate.

Las ventas de casas existentes bajaron 1.8% en Junio
Existing-Home Sales Slide as Prices Surge on Tight Inventory
Sales of previously owned U.S. homes fell 1.8% in June

WASHINGTON—Sales of previously owned U.S. homes fell in June and prices jumped as strong demand overwhelmed a pinched supply of available homes.
Existing home sales fell 1.8% in June from the previous month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.52 million, the National Association of Realtors said Monday.
The median sales price in June hit a record high of $263,800, up 6.5% from a year earlier. Adjusted for inflation, prices remained about 9% below the 2006 peak.
Sales have essentially been flat since March, when home purchases reached the highest level since 2007. A number of indicators suggest demand is surging due to a strong economy and millennials entering the housing market in force for the first time.
But severe supply shortages are depressing sales.
“The demand for buying a home is as strong as it has been since before the Great Recession. Listings in the affordable price range continue to be scooped up rapidly, but the severe housing shortages inflicting many markets are keeping a large segment of would-be buyers on the sidelines,” said NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun.
There was a 4.3-month supply of homes on the market at the end of the month, down from 4.6 months a year earlier.
Existing home sale have been bumpy throughout the critical spring selling season. Sales rose modestly in May but declined in April, according to NAR.
First-time buyers are looking to make purchases, according to economists and recent housing-market data, but are finding few affordably priced homes. Owners, meanwhile, have been more inclined to stay put and renovate rather than brave bidding wars and prices that are significantly higher than what they paid a few years ago.
“The musical chairs phenomenon of people not wanting to actually list their own home because they don’t want to be buyers again means that they have to make their own homes work,” said Svenja Gudell, chief economist at home listings site Zillow.
First-time buyers accounted for 32% of sales in June, down slightly from 33% both in May and a year ago. NAR said the annual share of first-time buyers in 2016 was 35%, a significant improvement from recent years.
Foreign buyers also are putting pressure on demand. NAR revealed a surprising jump in Canadians buying U.S. properties in the year ending in March. In all, foreign buyers and recent immigrants purchased $153 billion of residential property in the U.S. in the year ended in March, a nearly 50% jump from a year earlier, according to a National Association of Realtors report released Tuesday. Foreigners purchased roughly 10% of existing U.S. homes, compared with 8% a year earlier.
Construction is showing signs of improvement, which could begin to ease supply shortages in the next year or so. Housing starts rose 8.3% in June from the previous month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.215 million, the Commerce Department said last week.

Ventas de casas usadas en EEUU caen por récord en precios
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Los volúmenes de ventas de casas usadas en Estados Unidos cayeron más de lo esperado en junio, debido a que una baja en las propiedades disponibles elevó los precios a máximos históricos.
La Asociación Nacional de Agentes Inmobiliarios (NAR, por su sigla en inglés) dijo que las ventas de viviendas usadas bajaron un 1,8 por ciento, a una cifra anual desestacionalizada de 5,52 millones unidades el mes pasado.
El ritmo de ventas de mayo se mantuvo en 5,62 millones de unidades. Economistas consultados en un sondeo de Reuters proyectaban que las ventas bajaran un 1,0 por ciento, a una tasa de 5,58 millones de unidades.
Las ventas de viviendas aumentaron en 0,7 por ciento en la comparación a junio del 2016.
Una fuerte escasez de propiedades ha afectado las ventas mensuales. El declive de viviendas disponibles generó guerras de ofertas, lo que derivó en un aumento de los precios que superó el crecimiento de los salarios.
El mes pasado, el número de casas en el mercado bajó un 0,5 por ciento a 1,96 millones de unidades. Las unidades disponibles se redujeron en 7,1 por ciento respecto a hace un año. El inventario de viviendas ha descendido por 25 meses consecutivos en la base año a año.
Como resultado, la mediana de precios de las viviendas saltó un 6,5 por ciento respecto a un año atrás, para ubicarse en junio en un máximo histórico de 263.800 dólares. Fue el sexagésimo cuarto mes seguido de aumentos de precios en la medición año a año.
Las inmobiliarias están teniendo problemas para cerrar la brecha de inventarios, en medio de los crecientes costos de la madera. La actividad de construcción también se ha visto limitada por escasez de empleados y de terrenos.
Un reporte publicado la semana pasada mostró que los comienzos de construcción de casas en Estados Unidos repuntaron en 8,3 por ciento a un ritmo de 1,22 millones de unidades en junio, aunque la cifra todavía está por debajo de su promedio histórico de 1,5 millones de unidades, una tasa que los agentes inmobiliarios dicen eliminaría la escasez de propiedades.
En un segundo informe divulgado el lunes, la firma Markit indicó que su índice de gerentes de compra (PMI) para el sector de servicios de Estados Unidos marcó una lectura preliminar de 54,2 en julio frente a 54,2 de junio. El mercado esperaba una medición de 54,1.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Los volúmenes de ventas de casas usadas en Estados Unidos cayeron más de lo esperado en junio, debido a que una baja en las propiedades disponibles elevó los precios a máximos históricos.
La Asociación Nacional de Agentes Inmobiliarios (NAR, por su sigla en inglés) dijo que las ventas de viviendas usadas bajaron un 1,8 por ciento, a una cifra anual desestacionalizada de 5,52 millones unidades el mes pasado.
El ritmo de ventas de mayo se mantuvo en 5,62 millones de unidades. Economistas consultados en un sondeo de Reuters proyectaban que las ventas bajaran un 1,0 por ciento, a una tasa de 5,58 millones de unidades.
Las ventas de viviendas aumentaron en 0,7 por ciento en la comparación a junio del 2016.
Una fuerte escasez de propiedades ha afectado las ventas mensuales. El declive de viviendas disponibles generó guerras de ofertas, lo que derivó en un aumento de los precios que superó el crecimiento de los salarios.

Halliburton advierte sobre crecimiento de plataformas en Norteamérica y acciones caen
(Reuters) - Halliburton Co reportó el lunes unos resultados sorprendentes del segundo trimestre, pero advirtió de que el crecimiento del número de plataformas petrolíferas en América del Norte estaba "mostrando señales de entrar en una meseta", lo que hacía caer sus acciones más de un 3 por ciento.
Los proveedores de servicios petroleros como Halliburton se han beneficiado de un auge de las actividades de perforación en América del Norte, pese a que el petróleo se ha mantenido por debajo de los 50 dólares.
Las plataformas en Estados Unidos aumentaron a 764 en la semana que finalizó el 21 de julio, lo que se compara con 371 de la misma semana del año pasado.
"Hoy en día, el crecimiento del número de plataformas está mostrando signos de estabilización", dijo el presidente ejecutivo de la empresa, Dave Lesar. "Esta desaceleración está ocurriendo en todos los lugares de Norteamérica".
A principios de este mes, el vicepresidente senior de desarrollo de negocios y marketing global de Halliburton, Mark Richard, dijo a Reuters que el auge de las actividades de perforación de esquisto de Estados Unidos probablemente ceda el próximo año debido a que la demanda en el sector de servicios de la industria es insostenible.
Halliburton volvió a la senda de las ganancias trimestrales y logró superar las expectativas de analistas por la mayor demanda en Norteamérica.
Los ingresos de la compañía en Norteamérica subieron un 83 por ciento a 2.770 millones de dólares en el segundo trimestre, debido al aumento de la demanda por servicios de bombeo y para construcción de pozos en la región.
La utilidad neta atribuible a Halliburton fue de 28 millones de dólares, o 3 centavos por acción, en el segundo trimestre finalizado el 30 de junio, en comparación con una pérdida de 3.210 millones de dólares, o 3,73 dólares por acción, del mismo periodo de un año antes.

Wall Street baja arrastrado por caída de Johnson & Johnson | Noticias - Página Principal | Reuters
(Reuters) - El índice S&P 500 y el Promedio Industrial Dow Jones retrocedían el lunes arrastrados por una caída de las acciones de Johnson & Johnson a media sesión en la bolsa de Nueva York, mientras que el índice Nasdaq mostraba pocos cambios a la espera de los resultados trimestrales de Alphabet.
* Las acciones de Johnson & Johnson caían un 1,45 por ciento a 133,34 dólares, luego de que la surcoreana Samsung Bioepis anunció que comenzó a vender en Estados Unidos su propia versión del fármaco Remicade.
* Los inversores también estaban atentos a los resultados trimestrales de pesos pesados del sector tecnológico ya que el reciente repunte de sus acciones ha generado dudas sobre sus precios. Amazon y Facebook reportarán sus ganancias esta semana.
* "Esta semana va a ser crítica para ver como la Fed deja de ser el principal motor del mercado y ese lugar lo ocupan los fundamentos de las compañías", dijo Matt Miskin, analista de mercados de capitales de John Hancock Investments.
* El mercado también estará atento a lo que pase en Washington y la capacidad del presidente Donald Trump para sacar adelante su agenda. "Por ahora, resultados mejores a lo esperado permiten al mercado surcar las incertidumbres que surgen en Washington, pero el mercado probablemente se preocupe más si las políticas finalmente no se aprueban", agregó Miskin.
* El Promedio Industrial Dow Jones Industrial caía 52,17 puntos, o un 0,24 por ciento, a 21.527,90, mientras que el S&P 500 perdía 2,86 puntos, o un 0,11 por ciento, a 2.469,68. El índice Nasdaq Composite caía 1,73 puntos, o un 0,03 por ciento, a 6.386,03.
* Nueve de los 11 principales sectores del S&P 500 estaban en terreno negativo, liderados por los de servicios públicos y telecomunicaciones.

PMI Composite Flash
Released On 7/24/2017 9:45:00 AM For Jul, 2017
Prior Consensus Consensus Range Actual
Composite – Level 53.0 53.2 52.7 to 54.1 54.2
Manufacturing – Level 52.1 52.0 51.5 to 52.3 53.2
Services — Level 53.0 54.1 52.8 to 54.4 54.2
Highlights
Markit's U.S. samples are reporting the best strength, though still moderate, so far this year. The July flash for the composite rose 3 tenths from final June to 54.2 while the services index is unchanged, also at 54.2. The manufacturing PMI shows the most acceleration, up 1.2 points from final June to 53.2.
Strength in new orders, especially for services which hit a 2-year high, is the leading plus in today's report with output and employment also positives. Price data are mixed with wages up but fuel bills down and selling prices soft.
The gain for manufacturing is a special plus as are most of the readings, data that point to a pop higher for general activity this summer.

Crecimiento del PIB de China en el segundo semestre será de un 6,7 pct: centro estudios
SHANGHÁI (Reuters) - La economía de China crecería a una tasa anual de un 6,7 por ciento en el segundo semestre del 2017, una ligera ralentización respecto a la primera mitad del año, dijo el martes el Centro de Información del Estado (SIC, por su sigla en inglés).
El SIC es un centro de estudios afiliado a la Comisión Nacional de Desarrollo y Reformas, la mayor agencia de planificación económica del país. La entidad pronosticó que el crecimiento de la segunda mayor economía del mundo en 2017 sería de un 6,8 por ciento, de acuerdo al diario estatal China Securities Journal.
El SIC dijo que la baja reflejaría una serie de factores, como la ralentización del crecimiento de las exportaciones y un enfriamiento de la inversión en el mercado inmobiliario.
El PIB de China creció un 6,9 por ciento en el segundo semestre del año pasado, ligeramente por encima de lo pronosticado, respaldado por el gasto gubernamental en infraestructura y por el desempeño del mercado inmobiliario.

Ganancia de Alphabet supera estimaciones, ingresos crecen 21 pct
(Reuters) - Alphabet Inc superó el lunes los pronósticos de ingresos y utilidades trimestrales al reportar más ventas por publicidad en todas sus plataformas, buscando dejar atrás una multa récord de la Unión Europea de 2.700 millones de dólares asumiendo el cargo completo de una sola vez.
En una base consolidada, los ingresos de la matriz de Google crecieron un 21 por ciento, a 26.010 millones de dólares, en el segundo trimestre finalizado el 30 de junio, superando el promedio de estimaciones de analistas de 25.650 millones de dólares, de acuerdo a Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
La ganancia por acción fue de 5,01 dólares, por encima del promedio de las estimaciones de 4,49 dólares, y hubiera sido de 8,90 dólares si no fuera por la multa anunciada el mes pasado por la agencia antimonopolios de la UE, indicó Alphabet. Las ganancias por acción fueron de 7 dólares hace un año.
Los reguladores antimonopolios de la UE castigaron el mes pasado a Google con una multa de 2.400 millones de euros (2.700 millones de dólares) por favorecer a sus propios servicios de compra, en una estricta decisión para la primera de tres investigaciones por posición dominante.
La ganancia neta total de la compañía cayó a 3.520 millones de dólares.
Pese a las cifras anunciadas, las acciones de la compañía -que cerraron la sesión regular en alza- cayeron un 3 por ciento a 968 dólares tras el reporte de los resultados al finalizar la jornada. Hasta el cierre del lunes, los títulos habían ganado un 26 por ciento en el año.
Los ingresos fueron apuntalados por la sólida demanda de publicidad en teléfonos móviles y en YouTube, pese a la fuerte competencia que enfrenta la compañía por parte de Facebook. Los ingresos por publicidad de Google, parte mayoritaria del negocio, crecieron un 18,4 por ciento a 22.670 millones de dólares.
Los "clics pagos" -cuando un anunciante paga solo si un usuario pincha un aviso- se incrementaron un 52 por ciento. Los analistas esperaban en promedio un crecimiento del 35,2 por ciento, de acuerdo a la firma FactSet. En el primer trimestre crecieron un 44 por ciento.
Los ingresos de la unidad Otros de Google -que incluye al smartphone Pixel, Play Store, y al negocio de computación en nube- crecieron un 42,3 por ciento, a 3.090 millones de dólares.
