Analysis
The market is quiet due to the weekend, but the risk of a shutdown increases uncertainty around the employment report. The rise in home prices indicates sustained inflationary pressure, but shutdown concerns could trigger a risk-off mood. Globally, the UK's investment promotion supports sentiment in European markets, but the impact is limited.
