JP Morgan outlines cross-asset performance as of last Friday in one chart
The highlights are the two main themes that have dominated market trading in the first two months so far this year: US dollar weakness and selling pressures on bonds.
While signs of inflation ticking upwards and central banks moving towards tightening monetary policy are reasons given for the recent bonds - both corporate and government-linked - selloff, the dollar continues to weaken in 2018 as it did in 2017 as well.
The start of today isn't the brightest for the dollar too, it's down against the rest of the major currencies on the day - except the swissie.
If Q1 2018 ends with the dollar index lower, it'll be the fifth consecutive quarterly decline - last seen in 2007-08.
