The GER40 fell to 12600 before rising 300 points to 12900, all three US Indexes gain around 0.7% and all eyes are on the FOMC. Outlier was the healthcare sector, that fell a little lower on president Biden`s declaration that the Corona epidemic was over.

China left rates unchanged as expected.
The Japanese CPI remains high at 2.8% and is seen to rise to 3% in October but there is no action expected from the Bank of Japan. The BoJ set`s rates in the night from Wednesday to Thursday but no change is expected with 97.6% probability.
In the US , confidence of Home Builders fell again and remains “Poor” at below 50. Cause are the Mortgage rates, that continue to rise: . The 30-year fixed mortgage rate was above 6% last week for the first time since 2008.

The Market will be dominated by the FOMC and any possible comments from central bankers. The Germans PPI Canadian CPI or US Building permits would have to come as a real surprise to move markets. 0.75% or 1% by the FOMC is the forefront of traders’ minds, Investors are not likely to enter the market before Thursday when the picture is a little less muddy.
