<p>After the flight to safety on Friday, markets are still largely on edge as we get the new week underway. Gold is down slightly to $1,919 but it pales in comparison to the $63 gain at the end of last week to $1,932. Meanwhile, oil is steadying at $87.71 while major currencies are also mostly little changed so far today.</p><p>The dollar is seeing light movements in narrow ranges mostly, although the kiwi – and inadvertently the aussie – is higher after the NZ election results <a href="https://www.forexlive.com/news/new-zealand-shifts-right-as-christopher-luxon-named-prime-minister-20231015/" target="_blank" rel="follow">here</a>. Elsewhere, S&amp;P 500 futures are up 0.2% so that is pointing to a steadier tone ahead of European trading.</p><p>In terms of data points, there won't be much to move the needle and really offer traders anything to work with.
