  • The Pound Sterling drops to near 1.3250 against the US Dollar (USD) in Monday’s London session after the weaker-than-expected PMI release. Meanwhile, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback’s value against its major peers, jumps to near 101.20.
  • Market expectations for the Federal Reserve (Fed) opting for a 50-bps interest rate cut for the second straight time increase as policymakers continue to remain concerned over the labor market outlook. The CME FedWatch tool shows that the probability of the Fed reducing interest rates by 50 bps to 4.25%-4.50% in November is close to 50%.
  • On Friday, comments from Fed Governor Christopher Waller indicated that there will be more rate cuts if labor market conditions worsen.
  • Investors will focus on the United States (US) preliminary S&P Global Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) data for September, which will be published at 13:45 GMT. Economists estimate the Manufacturing PMI to have increased to 48.5 from 47.9 in August. However, a figure below the 50.0 is considered as contraction. The Services PMI is expected to have declined to 55.2 from 55.7, suggesting a slight growth slowdown.
