Week ahead: US non-farm payrolls, Tory Party conference in focus

All eyes over the coming week will be on the US non-farm payrolls report for September due out on Friday.

Consensus is for a 250,000 person increase in hiring, alongside a 0.3% month-on-month gain in average hourly earnings.

The JOLTS survey on job openings in the US covering the month of August, on Tuesday, may also prove to be a talking point.

Investors will also be keeping close tabs on another barrage of speeches from top Fed officials with Tuesday expected to see the most Fedspeak.

On home shores, the Conservative Party conference will begin on Sunday and last through to Wednesday.

The Chancellor will deliver a speech on Monday, followed by the Prime Minister the next day.

The Office for Budget Responsibility is due to provide its initial budget forecasts on Friday.

A raft of factory sector purchasing managers surveys for September covering the euro area, UK and US are due out on Monday with another set of surveys covering services expected on Wednesday.

Monday will also bring with it the results of the Bank of Japan's Tankan survey for confidence among large manufacturing sector firms.

On Tuesday, financial markets will be monitoring a reading on core consumer prices due out in Tokyo referencing the month of September.

Wednesday may see the Organisation for Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies announce a production cut of around 1.0m barrels a day, according to reports citing delegates, with reductions of 0.5m b/d and 1.5m b/d also on the table.
