Meantime, earnings season is underway in the US, kicked off by big banks. Bloomberg TV hosts Paul Allen and Haidi Stroud-Watts spoke to Dilin Wu, Research Strategist at Pepperstone.

The Bloomberg New Economy Forum makes its debut in India, convening global public and private sector leaders in New Delhi. Bloomberg's Yvonne Man speaks to Former Australian Prime Minister/Asia Society Global President & CEO Kevin Rudd.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Saudi Arabia's main airport came under renewed attack from Houthi rebels, a day after a strike on the facility killed 12 people and heaped pressure on the Middle East's biggest economy as it prepares to host major events that seek to boost foreign investment. An unidentified projectile hit a passenger terminal at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh on Sunday, with authorities tackling a blaze, the Saudi-led coalition that's fighting Iranian-backed Houthi militants in Yemen, said in a statement. The Houthis swiftly claimed the attacks, saying they were a response to "Saudi aggression," including a strike on the airport in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa. The Saudi civil aviation authority said that the attack killed one person and injured 11. The coalition also said air defenses had intercepted a missile near the same location in the Saudi capital. The incident follows the strike on King Khalid airport on Saturday that also injured more than 300 people and marked the deadliest single event in Saudi Arabia since the Iran war began in late February. A projectile also fell near the King Fahd International Airport in Saudi Arabia's Dammam, which the Houthis also claimed as one of their attacks. Bloomberg's David Ingles and Stephen Engle spoke to National University of Singapore Middle East Institute Senior Research Fellow Jean-Loup Samaan.

And -  Higher gasoline prices probably led to quicker overall US inflation in September even as underlying price pressures moderated, supporting views that the Federal Reserve will refrain from raising interest rates this month. The closely-watched consumer price index is seen rising 0.6% after a 0.4% increase a month earlier, based on the median projection in a Bloomberg survey of economists ahead of Wednesday's Bureau of Labor Statistics release. That would mark the largest advance in five months. Bloomberg's Haidi Stroud-Watts spoke to Westpac Head of Business and Industry Economics Sian Fenner.
