Contracts in the US gain slightly after a slight decline in the S&P 500 on Friday. Quotations in Asia are mixed, but in China and Japan increases are observed. The dollar remains relatively strong, although we may see another attempt to its slight weakening. It is worth to pay attention to the row material market, where rising prices of copper and oil. Generally, from above mentioned factors comes out a pretty good situation for the Warsaw market.

During today's session we will be announced of important for the local market readings. These will be the data on industrial production and retail sales for October. The market expects a slowdown readings to 0.8% y/y (production) and 4.0% y/y (retail sales). However this will mainly be an impact of seasonal effects (a smaller number of working days). In the case of construction output is expected to remain negative trend (-16.3% y/y). These data will be very important, because the market can see the uncertainty as to the condition of the national economy.
