James Rossiter, the head of global macro strategy at TD Securities, notes that the UK's PM Boris Johnson has requested that Parliament be prorogued from the week beginning September 9 until October 14.

• “The Queen is likely to grant this request later today.
• This means that Parliament will not sit during these dates, and will have less of a window to prevent No Deal Brexit.
• We believe this actually increases the odds of a deal being done by the end of October, and decreases the odds of an "accidental" No-Deal Brexit. We continue to think No Deal odds are around 40%.”
