Anxiety about the monetary policy outlook ahead of key economic data releases dominated market sentiment on Wednesday. A slew of releases including PCE-based inflation, non-farm payrolls, unemployment and manufacturing PMI from the U.S., inflation readings from Germany, France and Euro Area, as well as the PMI readings from China are due in the coming week.
Wall Street Futures are trading with mild losses. European benchmarks are trading on a mostly negative note. Asian stock markets finished trading on a positive note.
Dollar Index has edged lower. Bond yields mostly hardened. Crude oil prices gained as supply concerns dominated following a more-than-expected decline in inventory levels in the U.S. Gold futures traded close to the flatline. Cryptocurrencies rallied following a court ruling against the SEC.
