FXStreet notes that the S&P 500 Index has rebounded off September’s correction but has also pulled back from October’s highs around 3,550. Nathan Peterson from Charles Schwab expects the index to remain rangebound while the VIX is set to stay within a 25-30 range as well.
“The VIX has been in a trading range of roughly 25-30 over the past six weeks and it’s likely to stay within this range until after the elections.”
“If there is uncertainty around the outcome of the elections this could result in an uptick in the VIX, but it feels to me like the higher probability is that the VIX heads back down towards the low 20s by mid-November, and potentially even lower than that (18-20).”
“It feels to me that the most likely scenario between now and the elections is that the S&P 500 remains sandwiched within a range of roughly 3,400 (which coincides with the 50-day SMA) and that October high of 3,550, so my near-term outlook calls for choppy, sideways action.”
The Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas reported Monday its general business activity index for manufacturing in Texas rose to 19.8 in October from an unrevised 13.6 in September, pointing to expansion in Texas factory activity for the third straight month. This was the highest reading since October 2018 as well.
According to the report, the production index, a key
measure of state manufacturing conditions, came in at 25.5 in October, up 3.2
points from September, indicating a slight acceleration in output growth. The new orders index rose 5.2 points to 19.9, and the growth rate of orders
index increased 1.1 points to 14.3. The shipments index edged up 0.4 points to
21.9, while the capacity utilization index climbed 5.5 points to 23.0. Meanwhile,
the employment index fell 5.8 points to 8.7, suggesting less robust hiring.
The U.S.
Commerce Department announced on Monday that the sales of new single-family
homes fell 3.5 percent m-o-m to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 959,000
units in September.
Economists had
forecast the sales pace of 1,025,000 last month.
August’s sales
pace was revised down to 994,000 units from the originally reported 1,011,000 units.
According to
the report, new home sales in the South, the largest area, fell 4.7 percent
m-o-m in September. Sales in the Northeast tumbled 28.9 percent m-o-m, while
sales in the Midwest decreased 4.1 percent m-o-m. Meanwhile, sales in the West increased
0.7 percent m-o-m.
FXStreet notes that NZD/USD closed above the top of its recent range at 0.6682 on Friday, which should trigger a short-term base to open up a move back to medium-term resistances at 0.6791/6806, according to the Credit Suisse analyst team.
“NZD/USD closed just above key short-term resistance at 0.6682/93 on Friday, although the market is struggling to so far follow through on this break this morning. Nevertheless, the break above here should trigger a small base, which should lead to an acceleration of upside momentum and open the door to 0.6737/52 next, then a key cluster of medium-term resistances at 0.6778/6806 – the recent and current year highs as well as the 78.6% retracement of the December 2018/March 2020 fall.
“A break above 0.6806 would complete a major medium-term base to open up significantly higher levels, with 0.6860 just the next initial resistance.”
U.S. stock-index futures plunged on Monday amid news that talks between the White House and House Democrats on a new fiscal stimulus package remained at a stalemate and the U.S. hit a new daily record for coronavirus cases.

FXStreet notes that S&P 500 is seen finely balanced near term and needs to hold 3420/15 to maintain an upward bias with resistance seen at 3477. The VIX though has moved sharply higher this morning and the Credit Suisse analyst team watches resistance from the 31.18 late September high.
“The S&P 500 continues to hold the 38.2% retracement of its September/October rally at 3420, but is unable to make a decisive break higher and with the US election getting closer the immediate outlook stays finely balanced.”
“For now, we continue to look for 3420/15 to try and hold with resistance seen at 3477 initially, above which is needed to clear the way for a move back to 3516, then the potential downtrend from early September, today seen at 3536. Above 3550 remains needed to open the door to a challenge on the 3588 record high.”
“The VIX has moved sharply higher this morning and we watch resistance from the 31.18 late September high. Above here would mark a base to warn of a more concerted move higher, with resistance then seen next at 36.25.”

The Chicago
Federal Reserve announced on Monday the Chicago Fed national activity index
(CFNAI), a weighted average of 85 different economic indicators, came in at 0.27
in September, down from an upwardly revised 1.11 in August (originally 0.79),
pointing to slower growth in economic activity than in the previous month but
still slightly above the average. That was the lowest reading since the sharp decline
in April.
Economists had
forecast the index to come in at 0.39 in September.
At the same
time, the index’s three-month moving average fell to +0.51 in September from
+0.71 in August.
According to
the report, three of the four broad categories of indicators used to construct
the index made positive contributions in September, but three of the four
categories declined from August.
Production-related
indicators made a negative contribution of -0.24 to the CFNAI in September,
down from +0.31 in August. Meanwhile, the contribution of the personal
consumption and housing category to the CFNAI improved to +0.09 in September
from a neutral value in August. Employment-related indicators contributed +0.35
to the CFNAI in September, down from +0.71 in August. The contribution of the
sales, orders, and inventories category to the CFNAI decreased to +0.07 in
September from +0.10 in August.

USD firmed against most of its major counterparts in the European session on Monday as U.S. stimulus hopes waned, while coronavirus worries intensified.
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), measuring the U.S. currency's value relative to a basket of foreign currencies, rose 0.22% to 92.97.
Talks between the White House and House Democrats on a new fiscal stimulus package didn't make much headway. The U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on Sunday the House could pass a relief package this week but "that's up to [Senate Majority Leader] Mitch [McConnell] as to whether it would happen in the Senate and go to the president's desk, which is our hope and prayer." Pelosi also added that she sent the White House a list of remaining concerns she had on Friday and hopes to get answers on those issues on Monday. However, CNN reported, citing sources, that McConnell privately had urged the White House not to strike a stimulus deal before the election because there was no support among Senate Republicans to pass it.
Meanwhile, coronavirus cases in the U.S. hit a single-day record of 85,085 on Saturday. Overall, the number of COVID-19 infected people in the country has increased to 8,637,109, the most in the world, according to the latest data from Johns Hopkins University. The U.S. death toll from coronavirus has reached 225,239, also the most in the world.
The White House chief of staff Mark Meadows acknowledged on Sunday that the U.S. is not going to control the coronavirus pandemic. "We’re not going to control the pandemic,” he told CNN. “We are going to control the fact that we get vaccines, therapeutics and other mitigations.”

FXStreet reports that analysts at Credit Suisse note that EUR/USD remains capped at the top of its short-term channel but with support at 1.1786/82 ideally holding to keep the broader risk skewed higher.
“EUR/USD extends its near-term consolidation following the rejection from the top of its short-term trend channel, today seen at 1.1900 but with daily MACD still positive and with our broader view still that weakness from the beginning of September is a corrective phase only, we maintain our view that the risks are skewed to the upside from here.”
“Immediate resistance is seen at 1.1867, above which should see a move back to 1.1880/81, then 1.1900/01, with the next key resistance seen at the 1.1918/30 corrective price high and 78.6% retracement of the September fall. This latter area remains seen as the barrier to a fresh challenge on the 1.2011 high.”
“Immediate support moves to 1.1825, with a move below 1.1786/82 needed to mark a near-term (minor) top for a fall back to the lower end of the short-term channel, today seen at 1.1727.”
FXStreet reports that economist at UOB Group Lee Sue Ann assessed the latest inflation figures in New Zealand.
“Consumer prices in New Zealand rose 0.7% q/q in the third quarter, reversing a 0.5% q/q decline in the second quarter, but less than the 0.9% q/q forecast”
“The Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) in August had projected inflation would slow to just 0.3% by the end of 2021, and has signalled it is prepared to provide more stimulus through negative interest rates if needed.”
Bloomberg reports that President Xi Jinping opened a meeting in Beijing this week to map out the next phase of economic development, just days before one of the most contentious U.S. elections in history will produce a president resistant to China’s ascent no matter who wins.
The country’s 14th five-year plan is expected to center around technological innovation, economic self reliance and a cleaner environment. Communist Party officials will also set goals for the next 15 years as Xi seeks to deliver on his vow for national rejuvenation by gaining the global lead in technology and other strategic industries. The meeting is closed to the press, and key decisions likely won’t be made clear before it wraps up on Thursday.
If China’s economy -- which is already recovering swiftly from the coronavirus shock -- can stick to the growth trajectory of recent years, it’ll surpass the U.S. within the next decade. The prospect of ever deeper frictions with the U.S. underpins Xi’s strategy to accelerate plans to shield China from swings in the world economy.
FXStreet reports that economists at Danske Bank forecast the USD/CNY pair at 6.60 on a twelve-month view but there are downside risks to their outlook.
“We think two factors explain the move. The outperformance of the Chinese economy amid better control over the coronavirus and higher interest rates than the US; and the increased likelihood of a Biden win, reducing the risks of an uncontrolled, damaging trade war that would ensue under a second term Trump presidency.”
“We see potential for more strength if indeed the US election turns out to provide a clear Biden win, creating downside risk to our twelve-month USD/CNY forecast of 6.60. Among upside risk for the cross is a surprise Trump win and/or a muddy election result as well as renewed rising tensions between US and China, but also between China and Taiwan where tensions have built lately.”
Reuters reports that polling firm YouGov and the Centre for Economics and Business Research said that a measure of consumer confidence among people in Britain fell for the first time in six months in October as worries mounted about new COVID-19 restrictions.
Concerns about household finances and property values pushed down the index to 101.3, down 1.1 points from September.
"The first fall in the Consumer Confidence Index in six months may prove to be a turning point in consumer sentiment as the reality of a second wave sets in," Kay Neufeld, head of macroeconomics at Cebr said.
FXStreet reports that FX Strategists at UOB Group do not expect USD/CNH to grind lower and test the 6.6030 region in the next weeks.
Next 1-3 weeks: “We have held a negative view in USD since last Friday, 16 Oct. In our latest narrative from Wednesday, we indicated that USD ‘is still weak but the next major support at 6.6030 may not come into the picture so soon’. USD subsequently dropped to a low of 6.6275 before rebounding. Downward momentum is beginning to slow and this coupled with rather oversold conditions suggests 6.6030 could be out of reach this time round. That said, only a break of 6.6980 (no change in ‘strong resistance’ level) would indicate the risk for further USD weakness has eased.”
According to the report from ifo Institute, German business climate Index came in at 92.7 in October, weaker than last month's 93.2. Economists had expected a decrease to 93.0.
Meanwhile, the current economic assessment arrived at 90.3 points as compared to last month's 89.2 and 89.8 anticipated.
On the other hand, the expectations index – indicating firms’ projections for the next six months, came in at 95.0 for October, up from the previous month’s 97.4. Economists had expected a decrease to 96.5.
Following the release , the Ifo institute’s Economist Klaus Wohlrabe said that the economy is growing more nervous amid rising coronavirus infections.
RTTNews reports that data from the statistical office INE showed that Spain's producer prices continued to fall in September.
Producer prices declined 3.3 percent year-on-year in September, slower than the 3.5 percent decrease seen in August.
On a monthly basis, producer prices grew 0.3 percent, reversing a 0.2 percent drop in the previous month.
Among sub-groups, energy prices showed the biggest annual fall of 10 percent in September. Prices of intermediate goods dropped 1.6 percent.
FXStreet reports that cable needs to break above 1.3120 to allow for the continuation of the upside pressure, suggested FX Strategists at UOB Group.
Next 1-3 weeks: “After GBP surged to a high of 1.3135, we indicated last Thursday that ‘there is room for further GBP strength towards 1.3250 but it is left to be seen if GBP can maintain a foothold above this level’. Since then, GBP has not been able to make much headway on the upside. Upward momentum is beginning to ease but only a break of 1.2990 (no change in ‘strong support’ level) would indicate that the current upside risk has dissipated. Meanwhile, in order to rejuvenate the current flagging momentum, GBP has to move and stay above 1.3120 within these 1 to 2 days or the odds for further GBP strength would diminish quickly.”

During today's Asian trading, the US dollar strengthened against most of the world's major currencies.
Demand for the dollar, as well as other "safe haven" assets, is rising due to the growing incidence of COVID-19 in the United States and Europe, with weak hopes for the adoption of a new stimulus package in the States before the November presidential election.
This week, the market is focused on the meetings of the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Japan, as well as data on the dynamics of US GDP for the third quarter.
House speaker Nancy Pelosi said Sunday that the House of representatives may pass a new stimulus package of about $2 trillion this week, but it is not known whether the Senate is ready to approve it. "We want the package to be adopted as quickly as possible, and therefore we are making concessions," Pelosi said.
Meanwhile, White house chief of staff Mike Meadows accused Pelosi of constantly " changing the rules of the game." "We continue to make one offer after another, and Nancy Pelosi continues to change the rules of the game," he said.
The ICE index, which tracks the dynamics of the US dollar against six currencies (Euro, Swiss franc, yen, canadian dollar, pound sterling and Swedish Krona), rose 0.17%.
FXStreet reports that FX Strategists at UOB Group noted that AUD/USD is expected to navigate between 0.7030 and 0.7185 in the next weeks.
Next 1-3 weeks: “There is not much to add to our latest narrative from last Thursday. As highlighted, the current movement in AUD is viewed as the early stages of a consolidation phase and AUD could trade between 0.7030 and 0.7185 for now. While AUD could test 0.7185 first, the current lackluster momentum suggests that a sustained advance above this level is unlikely.”
eFXdata reports that Danske Research discusses its expectations for ECB meeting.
"At the ECB policy meeting, we do not expect any new measures to be announced. However, with the COVID-19 spreading increasing, we expect the ECB to send its usual dovish signals, which could raise further market expectations for a December decision to increase/extend PEPP due to its open interpretation of the language. Our baseline is for the ECB to signal a readiness to act subject to incoming data in the coming 6 weeks and not a pre-commitment to expand already next week," Danske notes.
"We expect Lagarde to be questioned on the economic and inflation uncertainty and upcoming December staff projections, the content of the toolbox, effectiveness of the tools the divergence of views in the governing council," Danske adds.
RTTNews reports that final data from the Cabinet Office showed that Japan's leading index rose less than estimated in August.
The leading index, which measures the future economic activity, rose to 88.4 in August from 86.7 in July. In the initial estimate, the reading was 88.8.
The coincident index increased to 79.2 in August versus 79.4 in the initial estimate.
The lagging index fell to 91.4 in August from 92.3 in the prior month. In the initial estimate, the reading was 89.7.
