Jobless claims, Eli Lilly results and Fed's Barkin speech
US100 struggles to break above the 200-day EMA

Yesterday's session on Wall Street and European markets performed mixed. US indices, despite strong upward momentum at the start of the cash session, closed lower intraday. The Nasdaq lost 1.05% at the close, while the S&P500 lost 0.77%. Despite the deterioration in sentiment at the end of the U.S. session, futures contracts indicate that today's session may also see an attempt to resume buying pressure. Contracts based on the DE40 are up 0.76%, while the US100 adds 0.98%.

The focus today will be on US jobless claims data, the Fed's Barkin speech, and quarterly results from Eli Lilly (Novo Nordisk's main competitor in developing an anti-obesity drug).
