S&P500 futures have generated some gains in the European session, portraying a risk-on mood. 10-year US Treasury yields have dropped to near 4.16%. The US Dollar Index (DXY) falls slightly to near 103.20 as investors shift focus towards the United States Q3 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, which will be published at 13:30 GMT.

As per the preliminary consensus, the US economy grew at a slower pace of 2.0% after expanding 4.9% in the third quarter of 2023. A slower growth rate would undermine the argument supporting a restrictive interest rate policy atleast until second quarter ends.
