US markets closed lower last night, with $E-mini S&P 500 Futures(DEC4) (ESmain.US)$ and $E-mini NASDAQ 100 Futures(DEC4) (NQmain.US)$ edging lower by 0.63% and 0.70% respectively. This comes after Powell's speech last night of not rushing to reduce interest rates given the economy's resilience. Traders are now currently pricing in a probability of 58.9% for a 25-basis-point rate cut, a sharp drop from yesterday's 82.8%. Among other stocks, $Leidos (LDOS.US)$ dropped the most by 13.60%. Traders should look to observe retail sales data released tonight.

Asian markets open mixed this morning. $Nikkei 225 (.N225.JP)$ drifted the highest by 0.62%. This is due to risk-on sentiment among traders after GDP data which performed as analyst's expectations. Traders should look to observe industrial production data released later. $HSI Futures(NOV4) (HSImain.HK)$ edged marginally higher by 0.19% this morning, with strength observed from the non-energy minerals sector. This comes after outperforming retail sales and unemployment rate data which came below analyst expectations. $NTES-S (09999.HK)$ climbed the most by 12.89%. However, traders should stay cautious as China's introduction on tax incentives on home and land transaction failed to excite the stock market. $FTSE Singapore Straits Time Index (.STI.SG)$ drifted marginally lower by 10%, with weakness observed in the finance sector. $UOB (U11.SG)$, $OCBC Bank (O39.SG)$ and $DBS Group Holdings (D05.SG)$ pushed slightly lower by 0.78%, 0.36% and 0.58% respectively.
