Meanwhile, U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said in his Capitol Hill speech on Tuesday that the U.S. economy is no longer overheated and that the labor market appears to be “fully back in balance.” Investors await key U.S. economic data later this week, with the initial jobless claims and consumer price index set to be announced Thursday.
