    European stocks close: stocks closed higher on yesterday's comments by the Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen

    Stock indices closed higher on yesterday's comments by the Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen. She said in a speech at the University of Massachusetts on Thursday that she expects that the Fed will start raising its interest rates by the end of the year, followed by a gradual pace of interest rate hikes.

    "Most of my colleagues and I anticipate that it will likely be appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate sometime later this year," she said.

    Yellen noted that the inflation will rise toward the Fed's 2% target as low oil prices are temporary.

    The Fed chairwoman also said that the slowdown in the global economy is not significant not to raise interest rates this year.

    Meanwhile, the economic data from the Eurozone was mixed. The European Central Bank (ECB) released its M3 money supply figures on Friday. M3 money supply rose 4.8% in August from last year, missing expectations for a 5.3% gain, after a 5.3 % increase in July.

    Loans to the private sector in the Eurozone climbed 1.0% in August from the last year, missing expectations for a 1.1% rise, after a 0.9% gain in July.

    French statistical office INSEE released its consumer confidence index for France on Friday. French consumer confidence index climbed to 97 in September from 94 in August. It was the highest level since October 2007.

    August's figure was revised up from 93.

    Analysts had expected the index to remain unchanged at 94.

    Oil prices trade mixed

    Oil prices traded mixed. WTI crude oil was supported by U.S. GDP data. The U.S. Commerce Department released gross domestic product (GDP) figures on Wednesday. The U.S. final GDP soared 3.9% in the second quarter, up from the revised estimate of a 3.7% growth, after a 0.2% decline in the first quarter.

    The upward revision was partly driven by an upward revision to consumer spending and business investment.

    Data by Genscape Inc. also supported oil prices. The company said on Thursday that crude stocks at the Cushing, Oklahoma, declined by more than 500,000 barrels in the week ending September 22.

    The weak consumer price inflation data from Japan weighed on oil prices. Japan's national consumer price index (CPI) remained unchanged at an annual rate of 0.2% in August.

    Japan's national CPI excluding fresh food declined to an annual rate of -0.1% in August from 0.0% in July, in line with expectations.

    WTI crude oil for November delivery increased to $45.32 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

    Brent crude oil for October declined to $48.38 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe.

    Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard reiterates that the Fed should start raising its interest rates

    Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard said in a speech on Friday that the Fed should start raising its interest rates.

    "A prudent monetary policy based on traditional central banking principles would begin normalizing the committee's policy settings gradually, since the goals of policy have essentially been met," he said.

    He added that even the Fed starts raising its interest rates, the monetary policy will remain accommodative.

    "For those who still think more accommodation is needed--do not worry! Policy will remain exceptionally accommodative through the medium term no matter how the committee proceeds," he said.

    Bullard is not a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee this year.

    Almost all of Dow stocks in positive area (25 of 30). Top looser - Caterpillar Inc. (CAT, -0.93%). Top gainer - NIKE, Inc. (NKE, +8.73).

    Almost all of S&P index sectors also in positive area. Top looser - Conglomerates (-0.0%). Top gainer - Consumer Goods (+1,3%).

    U.S. preliminary services purchasing managers' index declines to 55.6 in September

    Markit Economics released its preliminary services purchasing managers' index (PMI) for the U.S. on Friday. The U.S. preliminary services purchasing managers' index (PMI) declined to 55.6 in September from 56.1 in August, in line with expectations.

    A reading above 50 indicates expansion in economic activity.

    The decline was driven by a slowdown in new business growth and a drop in input price inflation.

    "The survey data point to sustained steady expansion of the US economy at the end of the third quarter, but various warning lights are now flashing brighter, meaning growth may continue to weaken in coming months. Although the surveys suggest the economy expanded at a 2.2% annualised rate in the third quarter, growth slowed in September and could weaken further in coming months," Markit Chief Economist Chris Williamson.

    The Bank of England's (BoE) Financial Policy Committee (FPC) said on Friday that risks to U.K. financial stability increased due to a slowdown in the Chinese and emerging market economies, but risks in relation to Greece and the Eurozone declined.

    "Overall, the FPC judges that the outlook remains challenging. While the resilience of the financial system has continued to improve, downside risks have risen," the FPC said in its statement.

    Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen expects that the Fed will start raising its interest rates by the end of the year

    The Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen said in a speech at the University of Massachusetts on Thursday that she expects that the Fed will start raising its interest rates by the end of the year, followed by a gradual pace of interest rate hikes.

    "Most of my colleagues and I anticipate that it will likely be appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate sometime later this year," she said.

    Yellen noted that the inflation will rise toward the Fed's 2% target as low oil prices are temporary.

    The Fed chairwoman also said that the slowdown in the global economy is not significant not to raise interest rates this year.

    Yellen pointed out that the decision to raise interest rates will depend on further progress toward achieving full employment and a rise in the inflation toward the 2% target.

    Foreign exchange market. Asian session: the euro remained under pressure

    The euro remained under pressure after Fed Chair Yellen's speech boosted the U.S. dollar. Janet Yellen said yesterday that the central bank would raise rates by the end of the year and noted that inflationary pressures are likely to grow in the coming years. Nevertheless she said that the decision had not been made yet and it depends on the labor market and price stability.

    The yen had a mixed session. On one hand it was weighed by inflation data. The core consumer price index fell by 0.1% in August compared to the same period last year. The index has fallen for the first time since 2013. On the other hand the yen was supported by speeches of Japan economy minister and Bank of Japan Governor. Both officials said that GDP growth trend was intact and that the core CPI fell because of low energy costs. Excluding energy the index rose by 1.1%.
