This week's U.S. elections, Federal Reserve, and Bank of England interest rate decisions have become the focal points of global markets, potentially causing significant fluctuations.

This week, the financial market is set for a "super week" with the U.S. presidential election, the Federal Reserve's rate decision, and the Bank of England's policy meeting taking center stage, potentially having a significant impact on global markets. Last week, following the UK Chancellor's Autumn Budget announcement, UK government bonds were sold off, but the pound has gradually stabilized at the beginning of this week, indicating a relief in market concerns regarding the government's spending plans. Investors are now closely watching the forthcoming key events.

U.S. Election Focuses on Swing States as Market Uncertainty Rises

The U.S. presidential election, taking place this Tuesday (November 5th), is the main focus of the market. Despite polls showing Trump slightly ahead in some states, the election outcome remains full of suspense, with the final results expected to be announced around 10 a.m. Beijing time on Wednesday. Market analysts suggest that if Trump wins, the dollar may be bolstered; if Harris wins, it could pressure the dollar. The election is expected to trigger significant volatility in the foreign exchange market, especially for currencies like the Australian dollar, New Zealand dollar, and Mexican peso, reflecting the market's varying expectations of the election result.

The swing states' election results will be crucial in determining the election's outcome. Given it may take several days to confirm the results, markets could face ongoing uncertainty in the coming days, potentially impacting stock, forex, and bond market volatility. Investors need to closely monitor developments.

Federal Reserve Decision: Possible Minor Rate Cut

The Federal Reserve will hold its November meeting on Wednesday, with the rate decision to be announced at 3 a.m. Beijing time on Friday. Last Friday's non-farm payroll report showed a moderate cooling in the U.S. labor market, significantly impacted by hurricanes and strikes. The market widely expects the Fed to cut rates by 25 basis points this time and possibly continue to cut in December. However, due to the unclear impacts of the election, the Fed is expected to adopt a cautious easing policy to maintain market stability and avoid the shocks of aggressive rate cuts.

Bank of England: Addressing Weak Economy, Potential for Further Easing

The Bank of England will announce its latest rate decision on Thursday. Previous remarks by Governor Bailey hinted at the possibility of aggressive rate cuts, with the market expecting a 25 basis point cut in November being almost certain, and further easing likely in December. Having announced the Autumn Budget, the Bank of England needs to consider the impact of government spending on the economy and the bond market in its policy-making to avoid large fluctuations in yields.

With several major events happening this week, the market is set to face high uncertainty and considerable volatility. Global investors will closely monitor the major central banks' decisions and the latest developments in the U.S. election to assess the future economic trajectory and investment strategies.
