Morning Report – Tuesday 16th November
FTSE to open at 7,344 (-8 pts)
Wall Street ended an indecisive session little-changed on Monday with traders caught between strong economic data and the prospect of tightening Fed monetary policy.
While overnight in Asia, Chinese stocks have bounced due to a rebound in property stocks and positivity surrounding talks between US President Biden and Xi Jinping, with both leaders stressing their responsibility to the rest of the world to avoid conflict.
This morning’s UK unemployment data came in slightly ahead of expectations at 4.3% for the three months to September.
Traders will be keeping a close eye on this morning’s European GDP data, along with this afternoon’s US retail sales.

Yesterday’s price action saw the FTSE print its smallest daily range in over four sessions – signalling that we’re starting to see some volatility compression.
Given the strength of the FTSE’s uptrend, probabilities continue to favour an expansive move in the direction of the trend.
