Economic calendar: Oil traders remain focused on Suez

European markets seen opening flat
Ship stuck in the Suez Canal refloated, oil pulls back
US hedge fund liquidation is adding to risk-off moods

A somewhat cautious tone can be spotted on the global markets at the beginning of a new week with European stock markets expected to open more or less flat. On one hand, a ship stuck in the Suez Canal has been refloated and the waterway may be cleared today, ending disruptions for global trade. On the other hand, Archegos Capital fund has been liquidated and investors seem to be a bit scared about potential spillover effects. Nomura, a major Japanese financial holding, said that its prime brokerage unit may face losses of over $2 billion. Economic calendar is empty and two aforementioned cases may be the main drivers of today's moves on the markets. However, there are some interesting releases and events scheduled for the later part of the week, including OPEC meeting and NFP release
