Over the past week, a series of secondary economic releases were scheduled, most of which reported lower-than-expected results compared to the market consensus.

The US deal which was reached over the weekend to avoid a government shutdown may provide some initial relief to the markets, attention will soon turn to Federal Reserve Chief Jerome Powell as he speaks in a discussion later on Monday. US manufacturing activity and jobs data will also be closely watched this week, following remarks from the head of the New York Fed suggesting that policymakers should maintain higher interest rates for a period of time.
