With US markets shut for the Labor Day holiday, trading across the Northern Hemisphere was subdued. Still, Eurozone stocks closed higher on a defence boost, while European bond yields climbed ahead of a French confidence vote. Meanwhile, Novo Nordisk gained on optimism over heart disease treatments, and China’s factory activity expanded at its fastest pace in five months. In commodities, oil prices firmed ahead of this week’s OPEC meeting, while gold hovered near a four-month high.
