It was a busy Thursday session for the global financial markets. US Q3 GDP numbers drew interest alongside corporate earnings.

In Q3, the US economy expanded by 2.6% versus the 0.6% contraction in Q2. Economists forecast 2.4% growth. The better-than-expected headline figure delivered initial support before a crypto market pullback.

However, US corporate earnings had a more material impact. Amazon.com (AMZN) and Meta (META) delivered gloomy outlooks to leave the NASDAQ in the deep red. The NASDAQ 100 fell by 1.63% on Thursday.

Later today, US economic indicators will be back in the spotlight. Inflation, personal spending, and consumer sentiment will give the markets further clues on what to expect from the Fed. This morning, the NASDAQ 100 mini was down 92.25 points.
