Today does not bring any major macroeconomic releases, giving markets a brief pause after an intense start to the week. Investors will mainly focus on a few key data points. In Canada, the labor market report will be released, in the United States the preliminary University of Michigan index will be published, and additionally, attention will be on oil sector activity and consumer credit data. The results of these releases may slightly influence current market sentiment, but overall, the day is expected to be relatively calm.
