European markets seen opening flat
-
German IFO index for October
-
Facebook Q3 earnings
Futures markets point to a flat opening of the European session today. Moods during the Asian session were mixed and equities from the region struggled to find a common direction. Meanwhile, moods on the FX market were rather positive with safe haven currencies (JPY, CHF) dropping. Turkish lira reached another record low against EUR and USD after the Turkish president expelled 10 ambassadors from the country.
Economic calendar for the day ahead is quite empty. German IFO index will be released in the morning and it is the only reading from the world's top economies scheduled for today. However, investors will also be offered Q3 earnings reports from US companies, including report from Facebook (FB.US) after the close of the Wall Street session.
9:00 am BST - Germany, IFO index for October. Expected: 97.8. Previous: 98.8
9:00 am BST - Poland, unemployment rate for September. Expected: 5.7%. Previous: 5.8%
