from the FT in London here's the latest
on markets it's that Friday again time
for us jobs data or a must-watch item on
the global macro calendar but this time
is a little different markets already
see a one hundred percent chance of a
rate rise from the Fed this month that
means any divergence from expectations
that US added a hundred and eighty
thousand jobs in October would have to
be huge to move the dial also in the US
watch tech stocks they've taken a hit
this week as investors figure the Trump
effect is not even across sectors
meanwhile turkeys mirrors at new record
lows made worse by the surge in oil
sterling is unusually upbeat after the
UK's brexit minister conceded the
country might need to keep paying into
the EU budget after it leaves hinting at
a soft rather than hard option news
overnight the lib dems of a new MP from
a London by-election also chips away at
the slender Tory majority at the margin
helps the case for a softer brexit
coming up the Italian referendum at the
weekend will keep euro traders and
italian bank stocks on edge
