1655: Reports emerging from the US that Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein will retire by the year end. Elsewhere, US markets have sprinted higher in the wake of an NFP report that may be justifiably described as a 'Goldilocks' update, one that harks back to the easy days of 2017, says analyst Chris Beauchamp at IG. "Fears of the Fed moving into higher gear with tightening have receded this afternoon, capping gains in the dollar and causing stocks to rocket. It feels like a return to the good old days, particularly when investors have just come through an ECB meeting that reiterated a commitment to loose policy. With the Nasdaq 100 clocking up a new all-time high, Beauchamp added: "If this slack in the US economy continues then the 'tightening panic' of early 2018 will be seen as an overreaction much like the 'taper tantrum' was. A healthy bounce in the S&P 500 confirms that optimism is not just confined to the tech sector. UK and European markets have pared their losses this afternoon as well with equities looking a much better bet than a month ago."
