In Europe, the Stoxx index of 600 leading companies was down 0.2%, but still heading for its largest weekly gain since late July. It is down about 19% for 2022. “Bank earnings start next week from Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, Wells Fargo and Citi. That’s going to be a pretty good indication because they all have big credit card businesses and they’ll give us a very good indication on the consumer,” Spencer said.

“Today, it is the US labour market report, which is likely to paint a picture of some softening, but not to an extent that can be expected to fuel any twist in the rhetoric of US central bankers. Next week, it all comes down to the US inflation release,” UniCredit analysts said in a note to clients.
