DOE in focus after unexpected API build
Futures markets point to a lower opening of today's cash session in Europe, following a downbeat Asian session. German DAX is seen opening over 100 points below yesterday's cash close. US dollar dominates among G10 currencies and puts pressure on precious metals. Elsewhere, NZD is top G10 laggard following an expected 25 basis points rate hike (some were expecting a 50 bp hike).
Looking at the calendar for the day ahead, there are 2 major readings that will draw attention. ADP report on employment for September, a final hint ahead of Friday's NFP release, will be published at 1:15 pm BST and is expected to show an over 400k jobs gain. Two hours later at 3:30 pm BST, investors will be offered a DOE report on oil inventories. Note that yesterday's API reading showed an unexpected build in oil stocks.
