0742 GMT - Progress has been made to end the U.S. government shutdown, but as long as the lack of mainstream U.S. government data persists, the market will be left somewhat rudderless, First Abu Dhabi Bank's Simon Ballard says in a note. This leaves investors unclear on direction and susceptible to any near-term headline risk, the chief economist says. "Moreover, we expect rates volatility and uncertainty to remain elevated for the foreseeable future," he says. Progress has been made toward the end of the U.S. government shutdown after the Senate cleared a hurdle to advance a bill to end the shutdown, aided by a vote from a bloc of Democrats.
