Week’s main events (May 13 – May 17)
Investors will be watching the US Producer and Consumer Price Index data this week for signs that price pressures are finally easing after months of solid inflation that raised fears that the Federal Reserve would not cut interest rates this year. The Eurozone will release GDP data on Wednesday and April’s inflation data on Friday. Economists expect a slight increase in economic activity, while no change is expected in inflation. On Friday, China will release financial data showing how the world’s number two economy fared at the start of the second quarter. Also worth watching on Tuesday is the UK labor market data, where investors will be watching closely for signs that wage growth is fueling price pressures.
