Travel insurance demand up as skies open
CHENNAI: Journey insurance plan demand from customers is seeing a surge right after intercontinental business flights resumed standard functions on March 27. A more substantial proportion of worldwide travellers are acquiring insurance policies now as when compared to pre-pandemic ranges.
The growth in journey insurance plan bookings has enthused insurers, who are seeking at robust advancement, two several years after Covid hit the overseas journey insurance vertical owing to lockdowns and worldwide vacation limits. The US, Canada, the Uk, the UAE and Schengen countries have emerged as the major locations for Indians travelling for leisure, company and instruction.

On-line insurance policy platform Policybazaar said there is a 25{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a} enhance in bookings in the 7 days commencing from March 27 as in comparison to the previous 7 days.

Bajaj Allianz Standard Insurance coverage anticipates the travel insurance coverage penetration will go previous 35{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a}, in phrases of coverage taken to the full quantity of travellers, from close to 18{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a} in the pre-pandemic period of time. ICICI Lombard General Insurance policies sees enhanced demand from customers for vacation insurance plan in leisure and small business segments, with the leisure segment witnessing a boom thanks to revenge travel.

Stock futures point to higher open after all three benchmarks close at 6-week highs

Stock futures point to higher open after all three benchmarks close at 6-week highs

Futures on Wall Street’s main benchmarks pushed higher in pre-market trading Tuesday following a choppy previous session that saw stocks climb in the final hour to cap the day at six-week highs.

Contracts on the S&P 500 were up 0.4{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a}, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 150 points. Futures tied to the Nasdaq Composite were up 0.3{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a} after the index was buoyed by a comeback in technology stocks during the previous session. Big names in the sector — Tesla, Amazon, and Apple — each rallied during intraday trading Monday following a rough start to the year stoked by a risk-off sentiment amid a liftoff in interest rates by the Federal Reserve.

“Corporate America is in excellent shape — earnings estimates are higher in 2022 now than they were at the start of the year, which is no small feat,” LPL Financial equity strategist Jeff Buchbinder said in a note, adding, however, that the positive outlook was not without risks, particularly around the Fed’s inflation fight. Buchbinder pointed out the S&P 500 registered a 19{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a} correction when the Federal Reserve last bumped rates up three years ago.

“We saw in 2018 what can happen when the market thinks the central bank is getting too aggressive,” he said. “And certainly we would not dismiss the potential for an escalation of the war in Europe and a broader conflict.”

Also weighing on corporate earnings is a slowdown in economic expansion and a challenging margin environment set forth by wage pressures, supply chain woes, materials and labor shortages, and rising commodity price, LPL Financial noted. These factors could make big earnings upside for companies to achieve and leave valuations to do the heavy lifting — but those valuations may not offer enough support to prop the S&P 500 up to 5,000 at year-end.

F.L. Putnam chief market strategist Ellen Hazen echoed a similar view on Yahoo Finance Live Monday.

“As we see inflation across the board for companies, we expect margins to continue to be under pressure,” Hazen said.

Inflation worries are also mounting for everyday Americans. The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index due for release on Tuesday will show a timely snapshot of their thinking following the latest spike in prices. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg are looking for the index to fall to 107.0 for March following a read of 110.5 last month.

There will also be a new read on labor demand with the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) for February scheduled for release Tuesday morning. Analysts are expecting 11 million vacancies, little changed from January’s 11.26 million openings. The results will jump start a week of fresh jobs data for March, which includes ADP’s private payrolls (out on Wednesday) and the crucial jobs report (Friday).

Investors got some relief on Monday as the CBOE Volatility Index (^VIX), which measures volatility and serves as a gauge of market sentiment, dipped. Wall Street’s “fear index,” better known as the VIX, settled below 20 for the first time since January after hovering at elevated levels in recent weeks.

Meanwhile, oil prices tanked on Monday after Shanghai implemented a lockdown to curb a surge in COVID-19 infections, renewing fears of a slowdown in demand. WTI Crude Oil futures (CL=F) plunged 9.2{1b90e59fe8a6c14b55fbbae1d9373c165823754d058ebf80beecafc6dee5063a} to settle at around $103 per barrel, recording their biggest drop in two weeks.

The war in Ukraine remains on the radar for investors. The Kremlin said Monday that peace talks between Russia and Ukraine may continue this week when officials from both countries meet in Turkey on Tuesday.

“While we cannot and will not speak about progress at the talks, the fact that they continue to take place in person is important, of course,” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told reporters on a conference call.

Peskov added that no major progress had been made in the talks themselves or the possibility of a face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
