Most investors should maintain a prudent and expectant posture with the approach of the Fed meeting. This behavior should induce volatility to levels closer to their historical average after the high peaks observed in August. The weakness of Asian markets may weigh on some sectors such as oil and mining. The weakness shown by the Chinese economy continued to dictate the negative trend in the price of oil and other raw materials during the Asian session. This less favorable environment should ease the positive impact of a 12% rise in car sales in Europe during the month of August. This was the second strongest variation of 2015 and validates the recovery of this sector started in 2014 after six years of recession. The brands most distinguished during the month of August were BMW, whose sales rose 17% and 20% of Renault.
