This week will see a similarly weighty yet thin news agenda like last week, with some items of key U.S. economic data due towards the end of the week starting on Wednesday. There is no Central Bank input coming from any other source. The market will probably be most active on Friday. Monday is a public holiday in the U.S.A., Japan, and Canada.
U.S. Dollar
It will be an important week for the greenback after Monday’s public holiday, starting with the release of the recent FOMC Meeting Minutes on Wednesday. On Thursday we will get Unemployment Claims, PPI, and Crude Oil Inventories numbers. Finally, on Friday we will get CPI and Retail Sales data.
British Pound
It will be a very quiet week for the British Pound, with nothing due except Manufacturing Production data on Tuesday.
Euro
It will be a very quiet week for the Euro, with nothing due except the President of the European Central Bank participating in a panel discussion on Thursday.
