The FTSE MIB fell 0.3% to around 41,800 on Friday, giving back gains from the previous session, as investors awaited the release of the US jobs report for August. The report is seen as pivotal after a series of labor indicators pointed to a softening US labor market, reinforcing bets on a possible Fed rate cut in September. On the domestic front, Italian retail sales were unchanged in July, missing forecasts of a 0.4% rise and cooling from a 0.7% increase in June, signaling weaker consumer demand heading into the second half of the year. Across the bourse, luxury and consumer names were among the early laggards, with Moncler down 2.3% and Ferrari slipping 0.9%. Utilities also underperformed, including Hera (-0.7%) and Telecom Italia (-0.7%). Italian banks also traded mostly in the red. For the week, the index is on track for a second consecutive loss.
