The Aussie share market is eyeing a fall of 0.5% at the open.

For the first day of October in the U.S. it was a bumpy one, with equities briefly dipping into the red after a U.S. stimulus vote was delayed to next Thursday, with traders hoping it would be done sooner.

What to watch today:

• On the economic side, retail sales are out today and are expected to fall 4.2%.
• The oil price has fallen 4% to US$38.
• Gold rebounded, lifting 0.9% to US$1,912. 
• The iron ore price lifted 2%. 

Trading ideas:

• Alumina (ASX:AWC) was upgraded by Citi as a buy with a new $1.80 target.
• SSR Mining (ASX:SSR) was initiated as a UBS buy with a $33 target, following its merger with Alacer.
• Sezzle (ASX:SZL), Netwealth (ASX:NWL) and Paradigm Biopharmaceuticals (ASX:PAR) are all showing bullish charting signals according to Trading Central.
