What are the main events for today?

  • We don't have much on the agenda with eyes on central bank speakers and the looming government shutdown
markets

Today we don’t have much on the agenda other than a couple of low tier economic releases and lots of central bank speakers (who are likely to repeat the same stuff).

In the European session, we have the final Eurozone consumer confidence and the Spanish business confidence. Neither of these releases is going to change anything for the markets.

In the American session, we get the US pending home sales data and the Dallas Fed manufacturing index. Again, they won’t change anything for the markets as the focus remains on the labour market data given that that is what forced the Fed to move towards neutral.
