Here's the latest market news, hand-curated by our research team. The Big Story [shutterstock_474915178] Oil majors Exxon Mobil, Chevron and Occidental among others rose more than 5%, following a jump in crude prices as sources said the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies are eyeing their biggest production cut since the start of the pandemic.

Traders will be watching what today holds for the second most traded precious metal. Economic data • US JOLTs job openings, factory orders, API weekly Crude oil stock • EU PPI Earnings • Acuity Brands Crypto • Crypto began the month strong, rebounding along with stocks, but the bounce is still timid as sentiment remains poor. This morning Bitcoin is trading at around USD19'600, above its average price of the last 5 days. • Popular Ethereum NFT project Moonbirds will adopt community governance through a DAO—or decentralized autonomous organization that will let members vote on proposals. It is set to launch in early 2023.

Energy and tech stocks were the top gainers. And Tesla saw huge selling pressure, declining 7% as it reported total deliveries that missed estimates. In forex, the pound moved higher after the UK government made a tax U-turn. CHF weakened following softer September inflation readings in the country. And precious metals ended higher; gold rose 2.2% while silver spiked 8.6%. This morning, Asian stocks and US equities futures continue to rise as betting on the Federal Reserve's hawkishness abated. And the Australian central bank surprised markets by announcing a smaller-than-expected rate increase; AUD weakened in consequence. Chart Of The Day September Inflation in Switzerland surprised to the downside, with month-over-month change coming in at -0.2% (vs +0.2% forecasted). The decline in MoM change comes on the back of falling prices for fuels, heating oil, hotels and supplementary accommodation. Nonetheless, prices still grew 3.3% from a year ago, surpassing the Swiss National Bank's 0-2% target.
