FX.co ★ European Markets Set for Muted Open

European equity markets are set to open largely unchanged on Monday, as the session anticipates minimal activity in terms of regional economic and earnings announcements. This week is poised to be more eventful, however, with the release of flash PMIs for the Eurozone, Germany, France, and the UK, alongside important inflation and GDP figures from the region. Investors are also keenly observing a busy week of U.S. corporate earnings, particularly with Nvidia, a leader in AI chip manufacturing, releasing its report on Wednesday. Additionally, a substantial amount of U.S. data, which was delayed due to a shutdown, is expected to be unveiled, including the September jobs report on Thursday. In premarket activity, futures for both Euro Stoxx 50 and Stoxx 600 appeared steady to slightly lower.
