Key takeaways

Futures on US indices are rising
The end of the war in Gaza Strait
UoM data in trader's focus

U.S. index futures are rebounding today after a seller-dominated session yesterday. That said, both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 managed to claw back a good portion of their losses into yesterday’s close. PepsiCo and United Airlines rose between 3% and 4% after releasing third-quarter results.
In focus today are University of Michigan readings on consumer sentiment and inflation expectations (16:00), along with remarks from Fed officials (Goolsbee, Musalem).
Asian stocks benchmark slumped 0.8%, after technology shares pulled down stock indices in Japan and China. Chinese semiconductor producer SMIC fell 7% on news that brokerages had reduced the stock's margin financing ratio to zero, citing high valuations. A barometer of Chinese tech equities from Hong Kong is poised for its worst week since early August
Energy commodities such as crude oil and natural gas are posting very slight declines. In metals, gold is little changed, while silver is rebounding by another 1.4%.
China yesterday decided to impose export restrictions on products that contain even trace amounts of Chinese materials or metals, including rare earths. As a result, reselling a product that incorporates a Chinese component will require obtaining a special license from Beijing.
Donald Trump said it may be that Americans “simply have to stop importing the huge volume of goods from China.” He also indicated the U.S. has prepared a proposal under which Chinese aircraft flying to the U.S. would be barred from overflying Russia. Moreover, the U.S. yesterday opened an investigation into Chinese router and Wi-Fi manufacturer TP-Link, citing national security concerns.
