The growth of PMIs for purchasing managers for the manufacturing and service sectors, as well as the consumer sentiment index also triggered a decline in demand for defensive assets - gold and government bonds, increasing the tendency of investors to buy risky assets of the US stock market.
The final consumer sentiment index of the University of Michigan at the end of November amounted to 96.8 against the October level of 95.5, which is also higher than the forecast of 95.7.
