Spread Betting on U.S. Markets

Spread bets and CFDs on U.S. bonds and gold prices
Spread bets and CFDs on U.S. markets should carefully consider the economic data that has been coming out of the States this past week. MarketWatch offers a look at information that may help with spread betting on some U.S. markets:

Yields on 10-year Treasury bonds rose to 5.24% from 5.20%. The more bond yields rise, the less attractive by comparison stocks are, and the more expensive mortgages are for consumers.

Gold futures fell $2.10 to $650.60 an ounce while crude-oil futures rose 38 cents to $67.31 a barrel.
