(Thursday Market Open) Equity index futures are pointing to a higher open as signs of weakness in the labor market may let the Fed take their proverbial foot off the economic brake. Potential Market Movers Earlier this week, the JOLTS job openings were higher than expected but lower than the previous month. This morning the Challenger Jobs Cuts report saw an uptick in corporate layoff announcements and the initial jobless claims also came in higher than expected. Equity index futures rose after the Challenger report as a possible indicator that tomorrow’s Employment Situation report may be weaker than the consensus for 250,000 jobs added during June. Though it may seem odd to see job losses as good news, the overheated hiring market has led to wage inflation and weaker corporate earnings. But signs that the labor market is weakening, and inflation is abating could prompt the Fed to be less aggressive in future rate hikes. It’s news that appears to be helping investor confidence. The Cboe Market Volatility Index (VIX) was lower once again this morning testing its recent lows around the 26.5 level.

With the Jamaican equities market becoming more attractive due to the increased participation of investors, it is expected that more Caribbean companies will choose Jamaica as their destination to raise equity capital and potentially tap the debt markets. Following the cross-listing of Guardian Holding Limited (GHL) on May 5, Massy Holdings Limited expressed similar interest to cross-list its ordinary shares on the Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE). Although both companies were already listed on the Trinidad and Tobago Stock Exchange (TTSE), their market multiples were extremely low when compared to some of their Jamaican counterparts in similar industries who trade on the JSE. This new window of cross-listings opens the door for more Caribbean investors to extract value from the various companies which operate across the region. Neither GHL nor Massy have stated any intentions to raise additional equity capital on the JSE at the moment, but that might change in the coming months as both firms expand aggressively. " .
