Oil gains as traders await OPEC+ decision
Global equity markets kicked off the third quarter on a positive note. European stocks finished the day higher and US markets post some gains as well. Investors welcomed today’s US jobless claims data that turned out to be better-than-expected - the print fell to lowest levels in 15 months. Markets will pay a lot of attention to tomorrow’s NFP report (1:30 pm BST) - a key report of the week.
Today’s manufacturing PMIs from European countries provided an upbeat outlook for the economy of the Old Continent - most readings came in above expectations. However, final manufacturing PMI from the US for June came in below preliminary data. ISM manufacturing data for June also fell short of expectations. The headline number stood at 60.6 (vs exp. 61.0) while price pressures intensified.
