The first part of today shows a slight rebound in the markets. During the session in the Asia-Pacific region, we observe increases of even above 1.00%, and contracts on indexes in Europe also indicate a higher opening of the cash session. After several days of dynamic declines, today investors have a chance for at least a brief break.
In today's macro calendar, we will not find significant publications that could impact the global markets. In the USA, we will learn data on unemployment benefits for the previous week and the number of home sales in the secondary market. After the recent collapse in the primary market, it will be worth watching whether the secondary market will follow the same path.
