Good Morning:

We start the day/week/month & 4th quarter with a rally in the European equity markets.

Encouraging news from the Euro Zone’s periphery manufacturing PMI front for September is helping the markets:
Irish PMI-51.8 from 50.9
Spanish PMI 44.6 from 44.1
Italian PMI 45.7 from 43.6
Euro Zone PMI 46.1 from 46

Italian jobless rate stay steady at 10.7%.  Expected 10.8%.
This is still the highest reading since 2004.

China is closed this week-and many Asian countries are closed Monday & Tuesday (Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea).

US Futures are following their European counterparts-up 50+ points.

Oil, Gold, and Silver are all lower.

HAVE A GREAT DAY & GOOD LUCK
