Morning Report – Monday 7th March

FTSE to open at 6,814 (-173 pts)

Friday’s US jobs data saw non-farm payrolls accelerate (687k v 400k expected), but wage growth failed to pick up with average hourly earnings growth slowing from 5.7% to 5.1% (5.8% expected).

Overnight, Chinese stocks have plunged to a 20-month low as surging commodity prices and an escalating Russia-Ukraine crisis has damped growth expectations. While Gold has broken to 12-month high as investors become increasingly risk averse.

Looking ahead this week, key events on our calendar include Tuesday’s Apple product launch event and Thursday’s European Central Bank governing council meeting in Frankfurt.
