Thursday’s rally helped lift global stock indexes into positive territory for the week

London — European shares slipped on Friday but held most of the previous session’s gains as investors welcomed the US Senate’s temporary lifting of the debt ceiling and awaited crucial jobs data due later in the session.

By 8.20am GMT, the Euro Stoxx 50 was 0.23% weaker, while the German DAX dropped by a similar amount. Britain’s FTSE 100 rose 0.1%. In Asia, the main share benchmark was supported by advances in Chinese blue chips which rose 1.07% as trading resumed after the weeklong National Day holiday. The improved sentiment partly stemmed from a private sector survey that showed China’s services sector activity returned to growth in September.

Supporting risk sentiment was the US Senate’s approval of legislation to temporarily raise the federal government’s debt limit and avoid the risk of a historic default, though it put off until early December a decision on a longer-lasting remedy. According to a Reuters survey of economists, nonfarm payrolls likely surged by 500,000 jobs last month, which would leave the level of employment about 4.8-million jobs below its peak in February 2020.
