Summary:  Global rates and earnings are driving the markets it seems.


Good Morning.

Tomorrow and Friday I will be travelling to see clients, next update will follow Monday.

Global rates and earnings are driving the markets it seems.

Equities traded friendly and Dow as well as the S&P 500 closed at new records but with 0.04% and 0.18% the gains were minute. Facebook fell on worries that Apple`s privacy rules would hurt, but Nvidia could rise 6.7%. UPS gains almost 7% on strong earnings. Microsoft and Alphabet made only smaller moves on the results last night.

Robin Hood disappointed with a loss almost twice as bad as expected, shares lose 8%. Deutsche bank can beat expectations this morning.

Sterling rose to the highest levels since Q1 2020 against the Euro on diverging rate -views, UK earnings rose the most since 2008. The BOE announces rates on November 4th, the ECB tomorrow. No change is expected by the ECB and the resignation of the Berman Bundesbank Head Jens Weidman hints at dovish tones. The Euro is weak overall trading at 1.1600 against the USD.

The Australian Dollar gained on strong inflation data that raised rate expectations, with a net profit of 194 million Euros.

Gold fell below the 200day moving average and is trading near the 1780 support, Silver is near the 24 level.

Durable goods orders will be the most important event today, the Canadian Rate decision comes at 16:00 CET but no change is expected. Tomorrow the ECB will be key, and Friday the EU Prices and GDP, the US PCE, the Chicago PMI and the University of Michigan sentiment
