Canadian GDP, the Fed's Williams and the G20 highlight the calendar

What's on the agenda

Newsflow on Friday will be dominated by the G20 meetings but the marquee event isn't until Saturday when Trump and Xi meet. However we will be watching for any leaks about a deal or anything related to it.

In terms of economic data, the lone top-tier release is Canadian September GDP at the bottom of the hour. The consensus is for 0.1% m/m growth and a rise of 2.3% y/y. It will also mark Q3 GDP, which is forecast at a 2.0% annualized pace.

The Fed will also be in focus with Williams to speak on the global economy in New York at 1400 GMT (9 am ET).

In terms of US data, there is the Chicago PMI at 1445 GMT and the Baker Hughes rig count at 1800 GMT.
