  • It has been a very slow session across all asset classes here in Asia today, early weakness in China equities, however that now looks to have steadied as investors await headlines out of the MOF meeting on Saturday, while NFRA, MIIT and SAMR will hold a press briefing on Monday. The market has turned focus to tonight's US PPI & U. of Mich. Sentiment.
  • French bond futures gapped higher on the open following the Budget announcement with the 2025 budget featuring spending cuts and higher taxes on businesses, the wealthy and energy.
