Market participants will primarily monitor developments related to President Trump\u2019s trade policies following the announcement of broad tariffs on August 1. Key central bank decisions are also anticipated from the Bank of England and Mexico\u2019s central bank (Banxico). On the data front, trade balance figures are scheduled for release from the United States, Australia, China, Canada, and Germany. In addition, Canada will publish a labor market report, while Mexico is set to release its latest inflation data shortly before the Banxico policy meeting. Meanwhile, corporate earnings season remains active, with notable reports expected from Palantir Technologies, Walt Disney, AMD, Amgen, and McDonald\u2019s.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Monday, August 04<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Monday, market attention will be centered on economic data from Switzerland, particularly the inflation report. Annual inflation is expected to remain at a historically low level of 0.1%. While this figure is unlikely to alter the Swiss National Bank\u2019s policy stance, it may contribute to increased volatility in currency pairs involving the Swiss franc (CHF). Traders should be prepared for potential short-term fluctuations driven by the market&#8217;s reaction to the data. It\u2019s a bank holiday in Canada and Australia.\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 Switzerland Consumer Price Index (m\/m) at 09:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Switzerland Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 10:30 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Tuesday, August 05<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Tuesday, investor focus will shift to the release of the Bank of Japan\u2019s meeting minutes. Should the minutes indicate that policymakers are prepared to continue raising interest rates through the end of the year, the Japanese yen may gain upward momentum. Additionally, markets will monitor services PMI data from major economies. Stronger-than-expected readings in this sector typically support national currency appreciation, while weaker data may have the opposite effect.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 Australia Services PMI (m\/m) at 02:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes at 02:50 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Services PMI (m\/m) at 03:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 China Caixin Services PMI (m\/m) at 04:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German Services PMI (m\/m) at 10:55 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone Services PMI (m\/m) at 11:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 UK Services PMI (m\/m) at 11:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone Producer Price Index (m\/m) at 12:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Trade Balance (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Canada Trade Balance (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US ISM Services PMI (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Wednesday, August 06<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">The key economic release on Wednesday will be New Zealand\u2019s unemployment report. The unemployment rate is projected to edge up from 5.1% to 5.2% year-over-year, potentially adding downward pressure on the New Zealand dollar (NZD) and increasing the likelihood of further rate cuts by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ). Japan will also publish its wage growth data, with an annualized increase of 2.5% expected, significantly higher than the previous 1% reading. This could lend support to the Japanese yen, as accelerating wage growth is a leading indicator of inflation, which the Bank of Japan closely monitors in determining future rate hikes. In addition, traders will closely watch the release of US Crude Oil Inventories, a key data point that can significantly influence global oil prices and energy market sentiment.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand Unemployment Rate (q\/q) at 01:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Average Cash Earnings (y\/y) at 02:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone Retail Sales (m\/m) at 12:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Crude Oil Reserves (w\/w) at 17:30 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Thursday, August 07 <\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Thursday, market participants will closely watch the Bank of England\u2019s monetary policy decision. The central bank is widely expected to lower its key interest rate from 4.25% to 4.00%, a move that could further pressure the British pound, which has already declined by over 3% in July. Traders will also monitor trade balance data from China, the United States, and Canada. China&#8217;s trade figures are particularly influential for Asian equity markets and commodity-linked currencies such as the Australian and New Zealand dollars. Later in the day, the Bank of Mexico (Banxico) will hold its scheduled policy meeting, with expectations for a rate cut from 8.00% to 7.75%. The Mexican peso recently touched a one-month low, driven by domestic economic concerns and renewed uncertainty surrounding trade tariffs.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 Australia Trade Balance (m\/m) at 04:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand Inflation Expectations (q\/q) at 06:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 China Trade Balance (m\/m) at 06:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German Industrial Production (m\/m) at 09:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German Trade Balance (m\/m) at 09:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 UK BoE Interest Rate Decision (m\/m) at 14:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 UK BoE Monetary Policy Statement (m\/m) at 14:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Mexico Inflation Rate (m\/m) at 15:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Initial Jobless Claims (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Canada Ivey PMI (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Natural Gas Storage (w\/w) at 17:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Mexico Banxico Interest Rate Decision at 22:00 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Friday, August 08<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Friday, attention will turn to Canada\u2019s labor market report. The unemployment rate is expected to decline slightly from 7.0% to 6.9%, while employment is forecast to increase by 15.3K, a notable slowdown compared to the previous month\u2019s gain of 83.1K. A solid report would reinforce the Bank of Canada&#8217;s recent decision to maintain its policy rate at 2.75% and could provide support for the Canadian dollar. Markets will be particularly sensitive to any signs of continued labor market resilience or emerging weakness.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 Canada Unemployment Rate (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ag-analytics_text\">by <span class=\"author vcard\"><span class=\"fn\">JustMarkets<\/span><\/span>, 2025.08.04<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"ag-base-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/secure.justmarkets.eu\/es\/register\/?sl=1\">Open Account<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ufeff\ufeff Week&#8217;s main events (August 04 \u2013 August 08) The upcoming week is expected to be relatively subdued in terms of major economic events.
