5th Oct - EU Open: Payroll Friday

This is a joke. Free consulting to commentators who notice what I edited.

Payrolls are clearly the day's most important number (presidential elections coming in US). French, Italian and Spanish prime ministers are meeting in the evening. I expect a risk-positive day based on technicals and sentiment. 

I am currently purging my postings so that the "less immediate" articles get pushed to the weekend posts. Any wishes or complaints?

On The USD Reaction To Tomorrow's Payroll Report – ZH

Tomorrow’s payrolls may be the most important economic release until the election. It seems very possible to us that the focus will be on the UR because of its political importance, rather than NFP, despite its economic importance.
