U.S. President Joe Biden, alongside UK Prime Minister Sunak, stepped foot in Israel, leading international efforts to de-escalate the Middle East conflict.

In contrast, the Australian dollar dipped on disappointing job figures, adding uncertainty ahead of the RBA’s November rate decision. Meanwhile, the Japanese Yen hovers at a level that could trigger intervention, leaving investors bracing for significant swings in the pair.

Fed Governor Christopher Waller expressed scepticism about pausing rate hikes, emphasising the importance of closely monitoring the evolving economic conditions across different US regions.
