On the Asia Pacific front, preliminary PMI data from Japan for February showed that the Manufacturing PMI came in at 47.2, lower than expected at 48.2, while the Service sector PMI was reported at 52.5. #Japan #PMI #Manufacturing #ServiceSector #EconomicIndicators

The impact on the market may create pressure for a positive outlook on the dollar and affect gold and Euro. However, in index futures, the positive balance from Meta counters the overall data effect. #FedRateCut #EmploymentGrowth #WageIncrease #MarketExpectations #ServiceSector #MetaPlatforms #MarketAnalysis

Strong employment growth and increasing wages could delay expectations for the first rate cut from the Fed. Currently, the primary scenario is set for May, but the market is beginning to consider the possibility of June. Notably, the service sector played a significant role, contributing 289 thousand to the overall employment data. #FedRateCut #EmploymentGrowth #WageIncrease #MarketExpectations #ServiceSector #MetaPlatforms #MarketAnalysis

This week, we're going to test the proportion that #CorporationTax rates have a material effect on incoming investment... as rate rises from 19%-25%.

However, all is not as it may seem; #JeremyHunt has also launched 100% #taxrelief on capital investment, which may offer some help to #manufacturing whose CapEx needs are (likely) more pronounced than the #servicesector.

Q.is whether the tax rise causes any exits from the UK by large mobile firms, or whether #sunkcosts will keep them here anyway?
