Sentiment was also shaped by the US House of Representatives\u2019 vote to end the country\u2019s longest-ever government shutdown, a move expected to help the Federal Reserve better assess economic conditions before its December policy meeting. Asian markets had closed mixed in the previous session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With official US data suspended during the shutdown, traders relied on private indicators, which currently point to a 65.4 percent chance of a 25-basis-point Fed rate cut, according to the CME FedWatch Tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Australia, stocks extended losses, with the S&amp;P\/ASX 200 sliding below 8,750 amid weakness in financials, energy and technology, though gold miners provided some support. The index fell nearly 1 percent to 8,719.40. Strong October jobs data, including a drop in unemployment to 4.3 percent and a larger-than-expected increase of 42,200 positions, had little impact on sentiment. The Australian dollar hovered near $0.656.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Japan\u2019s Nikkei moved higher, rising above 51,250 as gains in tech and financial stocks offset weakness among major index heavyweights. Producer prices rose 2.7 percent year-on-year in October, slightly above expectations. Elsewhere in Asia, trading was mostly muted, with small moves across major markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Wall Street, the Dow climbed while the Nasdaq drifted lower, and Europe closed broadly higher. Crude oil slumped over 4 percent after OPEC signaled a supply surplus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><br \/><br \/>Upcoming Events:<br \/><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>07:00 AM GMT &#8211; GBP GDP m\/m<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global Markets: News &amp; Data: Markets Update: Asian markets traded mixed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":79815,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[196,215,339],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79963"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=79963"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79963\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":79964,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79963\/revisions\/79964"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/79815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=79963"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=79963"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=79963"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
