Week’s main events (June 24 – June 28)
There will be several important events in the coming week. The main event will be the inflation data in Canada and Australia. Inflationary pressures are expected to fall in both, but there may be surprises. Also, the US, Canada, and UK GDP data will be released this week. This data will show how the economy works during high interest rates. Typically, GDP growth is accompanied by a stronger currency, as a strong economy allows the central bank to hold rates further to fight inflation. The Fed’s favorite measure of inflation, the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, will be released on Friday and should show whether the emerging slowdown in inflation continues. The latest PCE reading was not in line with expectations. Another such reading could undermine the case for a rate cut soon.
