Investors worry that the Fed expansion program and the upcoming stimulus plans as well as the expected tax increases will bust inflation and put pressure on the stock markets.

The EURSX50 is trading marginally lower this morning as well, down 0.25% and the FTSI is down 0.55%. Asian markets closed their overnight session near the flat line.

Oil is lower ahead of the Inventories numbers set to be released this morning, trading at $64.05 per barrel, down 1.11%, as investors fear the runup in OIL is coming to an end given the priced in economic recovery, weakening EU markets demand and proposed lockdowns and the tight market following OPEC+.
