CHINA

China’s stock markets have just posted their biggest falls since the last week of August, despite a late (and somewhat suspicious) rally.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite shed 2.7%, having been down 4% in late trading, as traders reacted to the slowdown in business investment, and subdued factory growth, in August.

This latest data follows a 13% tumble in imports last month, adding to concerns that the Chinese economy is softening fast.

Analysts at Mizuho Bank reckon the slowdown could encourage the US Federal Reserve to leave interest rates on hold this week:

RUSSIA

Russia’s largest port operator has just reported a sharp fall in profits and revenues, highlighting its weak econony. 

Pre-tax profits at Global Ports halved in the first six months of 2015, as revenue shrank by 25%.

EROPAH

Good morning, and welcome to our rolling coverage of the world economy, the financial markets, the eurozone and business.

It’s going to be an exciting week. Economists and investors are already looking towards Thursday’s Federal Reserve meeting, when America’s interest rates could be raised for the first time since the crisis began.

On balance, the Fed is expected to sit tight again, given the recent ructions in the global economy, but no-one knows for sure.
