U.S. markets will be closed for a public holiday on Monday.

Meanwhile, the economic data from the Eurozone was mixed. Market research group Sentix released its investor confidence index for the Eurozone on Monday. The index dropped to 13.6 in September from 18.4 in August. It was the lowest level since February.

A reading above 0.0 indicates optimism, below indicates pessimism.

The decline was driven by a slowdown in the Chinese economy.

"Investors now see the slowdown in China as well as in other emerging markets as a significant burden for the euro zone's economy, which can no longer be compensated by good developments in the domestic euro zone economy or the United States," Sentix said.

Destatis released its industrial production data for Germany on Monday. German industrial production rose 0.7% in July, missing expectations for a 1.0% gain, after a 0.9% decline in June. June's figure was revised up from a 1.4% drop.

The output of capital goods increased 2.8% in July, energy output climbed 1.9%, and the production in the construction sector was up 3.2%, while the production of intermediate goods fell 0.8%.

The output of consumer goods decreased 3.7%.

The large-cap stocks' measure, the WIG30 Index, fell by 0.66%. Within the WIG30 Index components, JSW (WSE: JSW) was hit the hardest, tumbling 9.64% on news that the company's board member resigned and that Polish ING unit demanded earlier redemption of JSW's bonds worth PLN 26.3 mln.

Oil prices fell on concerns over a slowdown in the Chinese economy. China's National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) revised its gross domestic product (GDP) on Monday. The Chinese economy expanded 7.3% in 2014, down from a 7.4% growth reported earlier. It was the lowest growth since 1990.

The downward revision was driven by a weaker rise in the services sector than previously reported.

According to data released by the People's Bank of China PBoC), China's foreign-exchange reserves declined by $93.9 billion to $3.56 trillion at the end of August, compared with $3.65 trillion in July. Currency reserves have been falling from $3.99 trillion in June 2014.

The recent decline is the result of the central bank's intervention to stop to stop the yuan fall and to limit capital outflows from the country.

U.S. markets are closed for the Labour Day holiday today.

Concerns over the global oil oversupply also weighed on oil prices. Oil ministers from the Gulf region will meet this week in Qatar. The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) includes Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman. The recent oil price decline is not on the agenda.

The oil driller Baker Hughes reported that the number of active U.S. rigs declined by 13 rigs to 662 last week. It was the first fall in seven weeks.

WTI crude oil for October delivery declined to $44.52 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Brent crude oil for October fell to $47.86 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe.

Gold price slightly decreased as market participants continued to eye the U.S. labour market data. The U.S. Labor Department released the labour market data on Friday. The U.S. economy added 173,000 jobs in August, missing expectations for a rise of 220,000 jobs, after a gain of 245,000 jobs in July. July's figure was revised up from a rise of 215,000 jobs.

The U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 5.1% in August from 5.3% in July, exceeding expectations for a decline to 5.2%. It was the lowest level since April 2008.

Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% in August, beating forecasts of a 0.2% gain, after a 0.2% increase in July.

U.S. markets are closed for a public holiday today.

October futures for gold on the COMEX today fell to 1118.30 dollars per ounce.

French President Francois Hollande said on Monday that the French economy is expected to grow 1% this year and 1.5% next year. But he added that this year's growth would not be enough to reduce unemployment.

Hollande noted that the country's budget deficit is expected to be 3.8% of gross domestic product (GDP) this year and 3.3% in 2016.

The French president also said that he expects the Chinese economy to expand in the long-term period.

The CEO of Russian oil company Rosneft, Igor Sechin, said at the FT Commodities Retreat in Singapore that Russia does not want to join the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

"OPEC has lost its influence as a key market regulator, no interest for Russia to join," he said.

The European Central Bank (ECB) purchased €51.6 billion of public and private debt under its quantitative-easing program in August, compared to €61.3 billion in July.

ECB'S asset buying programme is intended to run to September 2016.

The ECB bought €42.8 billion of government and agency bonds in July, €7.5 billion of covered bonds, and €1.3 billion of asset-backed securities.

The central purchased €11.9 billion of government and agency bonds, €1.0 billion of covered bonds, and €382 million of asset-backed securities last week.

According to data released by the People's Bank of China PBoC), China's foreign-exchange reserves declined by $93.9 billion to $3.56 trillion at the end of August, compared with $3.65 trillion in July. Currency reserves have been falling from $3.99 trillion in June 2014.

Oil ministers from the Gulf region will meet this week in Qatar. The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) includes Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman. The recent oil price decline is not on the agenda.

Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and UAE are the OPEC members, while Bahrain and Oman are non-OPEC members.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said on Saturday that he said to the Emir of Qatar OPEC members should meet to discuss how to defend oil prices.

Earlier last week, Maduro said in an interview with RT that he and Russian President Vladimir Putin "had worked out a number of initiatives aimed at stabilizing the oil market".

The People's Bank of China (PBoC) Governor Zhou Xiaochuan said at G20 summit on Friday that there is no reason for the yuan to fall further.

Chinese Finance Minister Lou Jiwei said on Friday that he expects China's economy to expand about 7% for the next four or five years.

A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector.

The increase was driven by a rise in new orders, which jumped to 57.6 in August from 45.4 in July.

"A healthy August update for commercial construction is encouraging, but needs to be sustained. As new housing activity remains strong rather than achieving further growth, commercial construction and infrastructure investment needs to pick up the baton," HIA Chief Economist, Harley Dale, said.

The agriculture sector grew 4.1% in 2014, while the secondary sector increased by 7.3%.

Gold is currently at $1,122.10 (+0.06%) near a 2-1/2-week low after mixed jobs data left investors confused about probability of a rate hike by the Federal Reserve this month. Liquidity is likely to be low today with U.S. markets closed for the Labor Day holiday.

The contradicting data failed to clarify probability of a rate increase when Fed policymakers meet on September 16-17.

Richmond Fed President Jeffrey Lacker said that the payrolls number was still strong even though it missed forecasts. "It didn't change the picture for monetary policy," he said.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 272.38 points, or 1.7%, to 16102.38 (-3.3% over the week). The S&P 500 declined 29.91 points, or 1.5%, to 1,921.22 (-3.4% over the week). The Nasdaq Composite lost 49.58 points, or 1.1%, to 4,683.92 (-3% over the week).

Volatility of the U.S. dollar was low after it rose moderately amid jobs data on Friday. The U.S. economy created 173,000 jobs in August vs 220,000 expected. Meanwhile the unemployment rate fell to 5.1% from 5.3% reported previously. Average hourly earnings rose 2.2% beating expectations.

The yen fell against the greenback amid growth in stock indices in Shanghai and Tokyo. Demand for this safe-haven currency declined amid investors' optimism.

The pound little changed ahead of Thursday's Bank of England meeting. Most experts expect the bank to leave its interest rates unchanged. Minutes of the meeting are likely to show whether policymakers are concerned about China's slowing economy.

The Australian dollar slightly rose after data showed that the AiG Performance of Construction Index rose to 53.8 in August from 47.1 reported previously. A high reading of the index is positive for the AUD.
