Week ahead: Global manufacturing and US jobs market in focus

Survey results due out on Monday for factory sector conditions in China, the UK, US and euro area will set the tone for trading over the remainder of the week, with investors keen for the most up-to-date readings possible.

They will be followed later in the week, on Wednesday, by equivalent survey readings on services sector activity.

Yet the key report, as ever, will be the monthly US non-farm payrolls report scheduled for release on Friday.

Also expected during the week are interest rate decisions in Australia and Canada, on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively.
