CLAIM OFFERHere is what you need to know on Monday, October 4:
No Time to Die is kicking up a storm in the UK and is due to do the same for the US when it is out on Thursday, so AMC apes get ready for some strong audience numbers if the UK experience is anything to go by. The equity market does feel like it is time to die though, despite a modest dead cat bounce on Friday. Things again look bleak on Monday (they always do!) if European markets are anything to go by. President Biden's much touted infrastructure deal is struggling for support just when many of the beneficiary stocks could do with a boost. Lawmakers also have to avoid the US failing to meet its debt burden, which kind of overshadows Evergrande's worries. But then the US is unlikely to default, whereas Evergrande might have some sort of controlled restructuring.
The dollar meanwhile continues to take a breather following last week's yield-induced run. It is currently trading at 1.1640 now versus the euro. Gold is at $1,754 and Oil at $76. Bitcoin is lower at $47,700, while the US 10-Year yield is also down at 1.48%. VIX is up 6% to 22.58.
