Wall Street faces a challenging week following Friday’s sharp sell-off in the Nasdaq, extending the significant correction in the technology sector seen throughout October.

Markets are facing a particularly busy week, with several central bank meetings that could reshape interest rate expectations and increase volatility across financial markets.

Rising oil prices and higher US Treasury yields are putting pressure on gold, while markets await Friday's preliminary US PMIs for fresh clues about economic growth and the outlook for interest rates.

Wednesday's US inflation report could set the direction for the dollar, Treasury yields, gold and equities. A hotter reading would lift yields and the dollar, while a softer one would ease financial conditions and support stocks and gold.
