The historic US government shutdown, now the longest on record, is expected to prolong the interruption of official US economic data releases. As a result, private sector data will gain prominence, with key updates coming from the ADP employment report and the NFIB Small Business Optimism Index. In Europe, significant updates will include the UK's GDP and labor market data, alongside the Eurozone's industrial production figures. Meanwhile, in Asia, investors will closely monitor China's comprehensive data release, which includes industrial production, retail sales, property prices, and credit metrics. Japan will also reveal its latest GDP estimates. The US earnings season, though slowing, will feature reports from Cisco, Disney, and Applied Materials, while major international companies like Tencent, Alibaba, Softbank, Sony, Siemens, Munich Re, and Allianz will also present their earnings.
