The bond sell-off that dominated the early part of the week has been put on pause today, with yields down a little and a largely positive picture for equities. NAB\u2019s Taylor Nugent talks through what\u2019s driving this change of sentiment. He doesn\u2019t believe it\u2019s one key thing but it could be down to lower jobs numbers in the latest ADP report, sharp falls in oil prices, no big surprises in the US Services ISM and the danger of a US shutdown back on the list of concerns. All of these factors could lessen the chance of another Fed hike before Christmas, but it\u2019ll be Friday nights non-farm payrolls data that really sets the direction for the start of next week.
