Focus on ECB’s Coure, US factory orders and initial jobless claims – TDS

In a quiet session for data ahead for Europe, analysts at TD Securities suggest that the key focus will be on a scheduled speech by the ECB’s Coure to French businesses at 5 pm BST.

From the US:  “The market looks for factory orders to rise by 2.1% in August on the strength of durable goods orders, which were up 4.5% in the preliminary release. Initial jobless claims are expected to hold at 215k while a 9:15 ET speech by Fed Governor Quarles rounds out the calendar.”
