TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

Market sentiment was fragile as investors digested lower-than-expected Chinese inflation data overnight and failed US government shutdown talks. Trade relations between the US and China were still in focus after the Chinese Commerce Industry issued a statement saying that the “extensive, deep and detailed” three-day talks between the two countries had “laid the foundations” for their dispute to be resolved.

“The right kind of noise, then, but not exactly the definitive signs of actual progress the markets were hoping for given their movements in the last few days,” said Spreadex analyst Connor Campbell.
