TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

European equity markets fell on Monday, with the pan-European STOXX 600 down 0.8% and the German DAX falling 0.8%, after stronger-than-expected US jobs data dashed market hopes that the Federal Reserve would pause its monetary policy tightening cycle soon. Markets now expect US policymakers to hike rates by 25bps in March and May, leaving the peak at 5.0%, compared with a previous forecast of 4.9%. Elsewhere, ECB Governing Council member Ignazio Visco said on Saturday that the ECB could take a cautious approach to increasing interest rates as short-term inflation expectations had dropped sharply. Investors will also focus on results from major companies, including BP, Unilever and banks such as BNP Paribas, Societe Generale and Credit Suisse. On the data front, German factory orders rebounded 3.2% in December, easily beating expectations of a 2% growth.
