Kontak Perkasa - Bloomberg (23/10)
-- Asian index futures rose amid speculation the Federal Reserve will
delay stimulus cuts until next year after U.S. payrolls rose less than
economists estimated in September. The dollar held declines against
Australia’s currency while crude oil fell a third day.
Nikkei
225 Stock Average futures climbed 0.4 percent to 14,770 by 3 a.m. in
Osaka and traded at 14,770 in Chicago from 14,710 in Japan yesterday.
Contracts on Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 Index jumped 0.6 percent,
signaling stocks may extend gains from a five-year high. Standard &
Poor’s 500 Index futures dropped 0.1 percent after the gauge rose in New
York. Australia’s dollar was at a 4 1/2-month high. West Texas
Intermediate oil lost 0.2 percent after sliding almost 3 percent the
past two days.
Barclays
Plc pushed out their estimate for the start of Fed tapering to March
from December after data, delayed because of the U.S. government
shutdown, showed employers added 148,000 workers in September, below the
180,000 increase projected in a Bloomberg survey. The 16-day shutdown
cut U.S. growth and cost jobs, according to an economic aide to
President Barack Obama. Australian may say today that inflation
quickened last quarter from the prior three months while Taiwan posts
factory output.
