Nerves fraught ahead of Jackson Hole<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The main U.S. indices closed with hefty losses Thursday despite strong earnings from chip maker Nvidia (NASDAQ:) on fears of more hawkish signals from the Federal Reserve, with Chair Jerome Powell set to speak at the later Friday.<\/p>\n

The meeting comes as the Fed faces the choice of raising interest rates again or keeping rates steady after raising them in July. The next policy meeting is in September, and while inflation readings have been cooling in the past few months, they still aren’t back to the Fed’s annual 2% target.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Thursday\u2019s weekly figures on served as a reminder that the U.S. labor market remains tight, providing no relief for the Fed.<\/p>\n

ECB pause momentum growing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Back in Europe, inflation remains an issue but momentum for a pause in the European Central Bank’s rate hiking cycle is building as recent economic data pointed to deepening economic pain in Europe.<\/p>\n

German was flat in the second quarter, an of 0.2%, data showed Friday, as the eurozone\u2019s largest economy stagnated, with a deep downturn in manufacturing output weighing on the overall economy.<\/p>\n

The earnings slate is largely empty in Europe Friday.<\/p>\n

That said, Ericsson (BS:) stock rose 0.2% after the Swedish telecom gear maker predicted intellectual property rights licensing income of around $1 billion this year after it renewed a patent cross-licensing agreement with China’s Huawei.<\/p>\n

CMC Markets (LON:) stock slumped nearly 14% after the financial derivatives dealer\u2019s full-year guidance fell short of estimates, as subdued trading conditions continued through August.<\/p>\n

Crude on course for lower week<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Oil prices edged higher Friday, but remained on course for a second consecutive week as concerns over slowing Chinese demand and increased U.S. supply as well as a stronger weighed. <\/p>\n

The dollar jumped to its strongest level since early-June earlier Friday, ahead of a speech by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at the Jackson Hole symposium. Strength in the dollar weighs on oil markets by making crude more expensive for international buyers.<\/p>\n

By 04:00 ET, the futures traded 0.8% higher at $79.65 a barrel, while the contract climbed 0.7% to $83.97. <\/p>\n

The benchmarks are set to fall between 1%-2% for the week, a second consecutive week of decline.<\/p>\n
