  • Macro: It was a mildly positive session for equities yesterday as the EuroStoxx600, the Nasdaq climbed by 23bps and the S&P500 all ended the day modestly in the green, little moved by Fed Powell’s speech during the day. Today in the US we get more jobs market data with Initial and Continuing Jobless claims. We also have five Fed members (Harker, Barkin, Goolsbee, Mester and Kashkari) speaking. In Europe we have French, German, UK and Eurozone Composite and Services PMIs as well as Eurozone Producer Price information. And in the UK and Ireland we have New Car registrations and the Unemployment Rate, respectively.
