Week Ahead - ECB set to pause tightening cycle, a big week for earnings
US Now that Fed Chair Powell signaled that the Federal Open Market Committee will keep rates on hold at the next policy meeting, Wall Street will look to see how high growth will peak before the economy cools in Q4.  Expectations are for the advance reading of Q3 GDP to rise from 2.1% to 4.3%.  Investors will also want to see if the September income and spending data show the consumer is still in good shape, as both readings are expected to post 0.4% monthly gains.  Big earnings for the week w
