EU Session Bullet Report – Stock Selloff As Borrowing Costs Set To Rise

EU Session Bullet Report

Global stock markets closed the day lower yesterday as anticipation over a December rate hike in the US gathers pace. The prospect of higher borrowing costs and slower economic growth led investors away from riskier assets resulting in a selloff

Currency markets traded in a range with the USD stabalizing following last weeks strong gains. Gold remains under pressure and remains below 1100 whilst crude oil hovers around the $44 mark. Today we have another quiet economic calendar so we can expect more range bound trading driven by technicals.

Trading quote of the day:

If you want to have a better performance than the crowd, you must do things differently from the crowd.

Sir John Templeton
