The global economy is expected to be in focus in Asia on Wednesday following weak US manufacturing data overnight. The data comes on the heels of disappointing figures from Europe earlier this week.
The US will remain in focus this week, with attention now turning to the ADP employment report due on Wednesday and the monthly jobs report on Friday. Moreover, slowing growth globally, coupled with the US-China trade war, has sparked yet more speculation about US Federal Reserve interest rate cuts this year.
With the China markets resuming trading only on October 8, we will sharpen our focus on Hong Kong, which witnessed its worst day of violence on Tuesday amid anti-government protests that are in their fourth month now.
