Morning Report – Friday 8th October
FTSE to open at 7,085 (+7 pts)
Wall Street continued its recovery rally yesterday, after the US Senate reached a deal on a stop-gap measure to extend the debt ceiling.
The proposed agreement increases the debt limit by $480bn – enough to kick the can down the road to early December.
All eyes are on today’s non-farm payrolls number and Regency members will receive a non-farm preview detailing the likely scenarios what it means for trading the S&P 500.
S&P 500 | +0.83% | Bullish for UK stocks |
Hang Seng | +0.20% | Neutral for UK stocks |
Gold | +0.25% | Bearish for UK stocks |
AUD/JPY | +0.10% | Neutral for UK stocks |
US 10yr Yield | +3.41% | Bearish for UK stocks |
The FTSE held its ground yesterday in a relatively quiet session but could not close above the short-term resistance created by this weeks cluster of highs.
We expect volatility to increase with this afternoon’s non-farm payrolls release.
