The British pound rose significantly against the dollar, recovering almost all the previously lost positions today, which was due to the widespread weakening of the US currency and profit-taking after a sharp decline due to the results of a survey on the subject of the referendum.

Residents of the UK at the moment tend to need the country's exit from the European Union, according to the survey, which published today in the European media. Thus, 45% of respondents in favor of the UK out of the EU, while 41% opposed this step. Other respondents have not yet decided on the choice. The survey, conducted by the YouGov Institute, was attended by about 3.5 thousand. Man. At the same time, according to TNS online survey, 43% of respondents would vote for the exit from the EU, while 41% would vote for it to stay. 11% of respondents were undecided. 1213 people were interviewed. The referendum on Britain's membership of the EU was appointed on June 23.

Later this week, the focus will be on industrial production statistics and foreign trade, which is likely to point to the weakness of the British economy. Manufacturing probably felt the most strongly negative impact from the global challenges for the manufacturing sector and uncertainty about the outcome of the referendum on EU membership. Meanwhile, the trade deficit is likely to increase slightly. The reason for this is the weak support from external demand, the deterioration of the situation in the manufacturing sector and a referendum on Britain's membership of the EU.

The US dollar was down against the euro, approaching to the lowest level since May 12th. The main pressure on the currency had a statement of Fed Yellen. She noted that the outlook for the US economy is very uncertain. "Published on Friday employment data were disappointing, causing fear, but it is important not to attach special importance to only one employment report The overall situation in the labor market is quite positive should closely monitor for signs of a slowdown in the number of jobs..", - Added the head of the Fed . Moreover, Yellen said that the course of monetary policy is not determined, given the uncertainty about the future. "If the situation in the labor market improves, inflation close to the target level, it would be appropriate to raise rates gradually. If inflation remains low, the Fed can only take limited measures to stimulate in the background of almost zero interest rates. Now the soft monetary policy remains appropriate" - he explained Yellen.

Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart said in an interview with Bloomberg Television on Monday that the Fed should wait until July before raising its interest rates further, noting that the U.S. weak labour market data for May and the referendum on Britain's membership in the European Union may weigh on the interest rate decision in June.

Atlanta Fed president also said that he expected two interest rate hikes this year.

Lockhart is not a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) this year.

Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren said on Monday that the Fed should raise its interest rate further as the U.S. economy rebounded from the weak first quarter.

"Economic conditions will continue to gradually improve, which in turn would justify further actions to normalize policy, continuing a gradual return to a more normal interest rate environment," he said.

"I expect that the U.S. central bank will gradually normalize monetary policy as the three conditions set out in the April FOMC minutes are met," Boston Fed president added.

Rosengren is a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) this year.

Stock closed higher, supported by a rise in oil prices and mining shares. Commodities were driven by a weaker U.S. dollar, which dropped on Friday's weak U.S. labour market data.

Market participants also eyed the economic data from the Eurozone. Market research group Sentix released its investor confidence index for the Eurozone on Monday. The index rose to 9.9 in June from 6.2 in May, exceeding expectations for an increase to 7.1. It was the highest level since December 2015.

A reading above 0.0 indicates optimism, below indicates pessimism.

"Investors' perception brightens with regards to both current situation and expectation values," Sentix said in its statement.

The current conditions index was up to 9.8 in June from 7.0 in May. The expectations index climbed to 10.0 in June from 5.5 in May.

German investor confidence index rose to 20.7 in June from 18.3 in May.

Oil prices rose modestly, climbing above $ 50, aided by the decline of the dollar and fears of oil supply disruptions in Nigeria. A further price growth is limited to the US data on oil production, which indicate the production recovery.

The dollar continues to fall in price today, continuing Friday's dynamics, which is associated with the publication of an extremely weak US labor market data. These findings have significantly reduced market expectations regarding the Fed's base rate increase of participants at the next meeting. Now, investors' attention is directed to the speech of the Fed's Yellen. She previously stated about the possibility of raising interest rates in the near future.

With regard to the situation in Nigeria, concerns about supply disruptions worsened after local rebels took responsibility for three successive attacks on oil infrastructure in Nigeria this weekend, promising to completely stop production.

According to experts, in recent weeks, supply disruptions from Nigeria and Canada have reduced the supply of oil on the market for more than 3 million barrels per day.

Markit Economics released its retail purchasing managers' index (PMI) for Eurozone on Monday. Eurozone's construction purchasing managers' index (PMI) rose to 50.6 in May from 47.9 in April.

On the threshold of the final hour of the Monday session the Warsaw market seems to fit in well known from the past diagram. After strong exchanges between supply and demand in previous sessions the market started the new week with calm and stability. As a result, a bit more than an hour before the end of trading the turnover on the WIG20 index does not extend PLN 250 mln, and the change in the average amounts is barely about 0.15 percent. Our concerns are: the poor response of the Warsaw Stock Exchange on the strengthening of the zloty and price increases in other emerging markets, which indicate that the positive climate to this segment - associated with the receding prospect of interest rate hikes in the United States - remains valid.

The first half of the session was unsuccessful output of the WIG20 above the level of 1,800 points. Low turnover indicates that the market suffers from a lack of activity and new ideas for the game. Therefore now appears a dangerous moment. Rebound of Wednesday's drop on Friday and return to the area of ​​1800-1789 points lead the market to the point at which on Wednesday began the panic associated with overcoming of supports levels and which led to test 1,750 points.

In the mid-session, the WIG20 index was at 1,784 points level and the counter of turnover on the WIG20 showed less than PLN 170 mln. Being over the 1,800 points did not arouse a great capital. In practice, this means that investors have to wait for a new impulse, which does not want to be delivered today from Europe and the US, where changes are modest and indicate that also the major stock exchanges continue waiting for new impetus.

Stock indices traded higher, supported by a rise in oil prices and mining shares. Commodities were driven by a weaker U.S. dollar, which dropped on Friday's weak U.S. labour market data.

"Recognizing the data we have on hand for the second quarter is quite mixed and still limited, and there is important near-term uncertainty, there would appear to be an advantage to waiting until developments provide greater confidence," she said.

Brainard noted that the U.S. labour market slowed, while there were risks to the outlook from the slowdown in emerging economies and the referendum on Britain's membership in the European Union.

Brainard is a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee.

Frankly, if China takes a time-out or a step back on the reform agenda, that will have very bad consequences for China's economy and it will flow over and not be good in terms of our bilateral economic relations," he said.

After a great Friday's session the Warsaw market in the first few minutes of trade coming back already above 1,800 points. However the turnover in the initial phase is quite low and do not exceed the rate of a million zlotys per minute in the WIG20. The largest part focuses on the KGHM shares, in terms of both, turnover and the scale of growth (+ 2.3%).

The end of Friday's trading on Wall Street did not bring surprises. As a result, the S&P500 has not changed the image of the day and does not deny the first reactions to the increase in the number of jobs outside agriculture in the US. The Tokyo Stock Exchange reacted standardly and overestimated the shares in response to the appreciation of the yen. The Chinese market, which is a part of the emerging markets, is growing and uses the receding prospect of rapid interest rate hikes in the US. The contract on the S&P500 recorded merely a cosmetic change compare to Friday's closing. Similarly, a contract for the DAX do not recorded a major change before opening of the new week. Thus, the image of the mood at the beginning of the new week can be described as a stable one.

In the macro calendar there is nothing particularly exciting. Another important event for the markets will be held in the middle of next week the meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee. The most important events of the next several hours will be today's speech by Janet Yellen, which should appear first assessment of Friday's report from the labor market. Yellen will begin his speech after the close of today's trading in Europe.

Friday shows the force of the bull side on market in Warsaw and has built a base for walking by the WIG20 over 1,800 points. But we need to keep in mind that two strong sessions on Thursday and Friday did not cover the weekly losses of the WIG20, which amounted to 2.5 percent, and confirmed the superiority of supply side. The new week will test the credibility of reflection, in order to assess whether Friday was just a rebound of Wednesday's panic, or the beginning of a new, short-term, upward trend.

European stocks swung lower Friday, locking in a weekly loss, as a much weaker-than-anticipated U.S. jobs report stoked worries about global growth.

U.S. stocks pared earlier losses to close modestly lower Friday as investors weighed implications of a dismal jobs report on the Federal Reserve monetary policy decision in two weeks.

The U.S. economy created just 38,000 jobs last month, the weakest level of hiring in nearly six years.

Also, a pair of surveys released Friday show the services side of the U.S. economy slowed in May. The weak jobs report coupled with other data, pointing to relative weakness in the economy, likely squelches prospects for a rate increase by the Federal Reserve later this month, according to analysts.

Asian shares rose on Monday and the dollar wallowed close to its lowest in nearly a month after U.S. nonfarm payrolls showed the slowest job growth in more than five years, quashing expectations for a near-term U.S. interest rate hike.

MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan .MIAPJ0000PUS was up 0.4 percent in early trade. Wall Street ended down on Friday, though off session lows, with the S&P 500 .SPX finishing within just 1.5 percent of its record closing high.

Japan's Nikkei stock index .N225 slipped 1.6 percent, after the dollar skidded 2 percent against the yen on Friday.
