Tomorrow, all the markets' attention will be directed to the first September report of the US Department of Labor (Payrolls). According to forecasts, unemployment fell in August from 5.4% to 5.2%. Analysts also believe that the number of people employed in non-agricultural sectors of the economy increased by 750 thousand after an increase of 943 thousand.
