Key events for the week ahead - Rabobank
FXStreet (Guatemala) - Analysts at Rabobank noted the week's events ahead.
Key Quotes:
"Today we have second-tier data (German trade figures) and several central bankers - the BOE’s Hauser, the Fed’s Kocherlakota and Mester, and the ECB’s Weidmann."
"They are all likely to stick to a singular meme that “Happy days are here again”; but in practice all of them will most likely act like porcupines instead, i.e., they will be thinking of spines, not showing some spine."
"Tomorrow we have Chinese CPI/PPI, US small business confidence, and some central-bank speak; Wednesday has Aussie home loans, Japanese machine orders, and UK industrial production;"
"Thursday has Aussie labour force, UK trade data, and US retail sales – the week’s data highlight; and Friday sees US PPI and Michigan confidence."
"Hopefully this all won’t prove too prickly for markets."
