Key takeaways
  • Light calendar as the U.S. shutdown curbs data flow; focus shifts to UoM sentiment.

  • Canada jobs and Italy IP could sway FX/rates; U.S. inflation expectations seen unchanged.

  • Fed’s Goolsbee and Musalem may colour near-term rate-cut expectations.

Today’s macro calendar is relatively light, and the U.S. government shutdown is dragging on, limiting the number of U.S. data releases. Today’s University of Michigan survey should offer a read on how the shutdown and labour-market uncertainty are shaping household sentiment.
