- Fears of more interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve (Fed) deepen as Chicago Fed Bank President Austan Goolsbee favors further policy tightening despite easing inflationary pressures.
- Meanwhile, 10-year US Treasury yields remain subdued at around 4% as inflation remains in check after soft United States core Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) data was released on Friday.

U.S. ADP Nonfarm Employment Change
The ADP National Employment Report is a measure of the monthly change in non-farm, private employment, based on the payroll data of approximately 400,000 U.S. business clients. The release, two days ahead of government data, is a good predictor of the government's non-farm payroll report. The change in this indicator can be very volatile.
