Here are the latest developments in global markets:
Day Ahead: US JOLTs job openings & University of Michigan consumer sentiment awaited
The economic calendar will be thin in the remainder of the day and in the absence of important figures, investors may turn their focus on developments on the geopolitical and trade fronts.
US JOLTs job openings will attract the most interest later today at 1400 GMT. Particularly, the report published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics is expected to show that 6,110 million positions opened in February compared to 6,312mn seen in the previous month.
At the same time, the University of Michigan will be delivering flash estimates on the US consumer sentiment. The index is forecast to inch down to 100.6 in April compared to 101.4 in the preceding month.
Later in the day, at 1700 GMT, Baker Hughes will publish its US oil rig count report, probably adding further volatility to oil prices which peaked at new three-year highs during the European session.
Turning to public appearances, several speeches by Fed members are scheduled later today. At 1130 GMT, Boston’s Fed President Eric Rosengren will be delivering comments ahead of a speech by St. Louis’s Fed President James Bullard at 1330 GMT. Remarks by Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan will also attract attention at 1700 GMT.
In stock markets, earnings releases will continue to attract attention, with JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo being among companies to reveal Q1 2018 results.
