DXY holds above 102.00, fixed income contained, crude is flat after a choppy session, while spot gold reclaimed USD 4k/oz. EQUITIES European bourses (STOXX 600 +0.2%) rebounded as Tuesday's session continued, with the majority of indices set to close in the green. The FTSE 100 (-0.7%) was the outlier, as it held onto its earlier losses. The downside in HSBC (-6.0%) was the cause of the underperformance, after PBT and revenue missed estimates. Sectors were mixed. Basic Resources topped the sector pile, followed by Tech and Construction. Optimised Personal Care was the sector laggard, with Autos and Food, Beverages & Tobacco rounding out the sector laggards. Key movers include: Mercedes-Benz -3.4%, cut its FY26 guidance; Novartis +0.9%, adj. operating income and EPS beat while lifting its FY26 operating income guidance; BE Semi +10.5%, as Applied Materials plans to raise its stake to 20% (currently 9%); Reckitt -4.8%, lowered its FY26 core LFL net revenue guidance; Vistry +5.0%, appointed Helen Miles as CFO; UMG, reportedly considering going private.

Focus turns to Seagate and Visa earnings after-hours, ahead of a busy slate tomorrow, which includes the FOMC policy announcement and earnings from Microsoft and Alphabet. FX DXY extended further above the 102.00 handle in the European morning, with currency-specific newsflow light as participants await this week's slew of risk events, including the FOMC, BoJ and ECB meetings, the UK Budget and Mag-7 earnings. US data was mostly firmer: Conference Board Consumer Confidence jumped to 91.7 (exp. 81), Durable Goods Orders rose 1.8% (exp. 1.5%), though the ex-Transport measure missed slightly (0.5% vs exp. 0.6%), and New Home Sales came in at 676k. Attention also turns to the Israeli election, with exit polls due at 20:00GMT/16:00EDT.

The ECB's Bank Lending Survey showed banks tightened Q3 credit standards for firms further. The ECB is widely expected to hold rates on Thursday.

Earlier, BRC Shop Price Inflation ticked higher (2.1% vs exp. 1.6%), while The Times reported that Chancellor Healey will announce plans to raise the minimum wage by nearly 4%. EUR/GBP is a little lower around the bottom of a 0.8363-0.8377 range. USD/JPY climbed throughout the session and sits at the top end of a 157.42-157.93 range.

USD/CAD is firmer within a 1.4009-1.4036 range. FIXED INCOME Overall, a somewhat contained European session for fixed income. Bunds saw some modest outperformance, peaking at 122.28 with gains of 23 ticks at best, before waning back towards the 122.00 figure towards the European cash equity close. Modest outperformance in Bunds, a function of the pullback in Dutch TTF, after it got to within a few euros of the EUR 100/MWh mark at the start of the week. Otherwise, the ECB BLS spurred no move, but points to a continued tightening of financial conditions and factors into thinking for the ECB on Thursday, where a hold is expected. USTs, by slight contrast, spent much of the day under modest pressure. Hit a 105-30+ base and hasn’t really moved from this, though only posted downside of a handful of ticks at that low. Specifics have been somewhat light as we count down to the Fed on Wednesday. Gilts opened with gains of just over 10 ticks, and then climbed to an 85.43 peak. Upside was driven by the minimum wage reporting being digested, as it mechanically provides Chancellor Healey with a significant headroom win. However, as crude picked up across the day, Gilts fell from best, and while WTI and Brent are currently flat, this has not allowed the benchmark to return towards its earlier best, and is set to end the pre-budget session relatively unchanged.
