Greetings,
The United States: Here is the breakdown of US durable goods orders (reported on Wednesday).

The Eurozone: The probability of a rate hike by the end of next year is now below 30%.

Emerging Markets: With Germany tightening the financial screws on Turkey, the nation’s markets remain under pressure. At some point, the government’s belligerent behavior begins to take its toll.

Equity Markets: The percentage of US M&A transactions with EBITDA adjustments hit a record high.

Credit: Unitranche spreads in middle market financing are shrinking. This will impact direct lending funds and BDCs.

United Kingdom: This chart shows the gap between the poorest and the richest regions/states for select nations. The UK stands out.

Food for Thought: Cyber attacks by industry.
