On Monday, the People Bank of China (PBoC) will hold a meeting, where the interest rate is expected to be lowered. Also on Monday, we will have the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund. On Wednesday, the Bank of Canada (BoC) will hold its monetary policy meeting. Economists expect a double rate cut of 0.5% due to weak economic data and declining inflation. On Thursday, traders will evaluate data on business activity in key economies, while on Friday, investors&#8217; attention will be directed to inflation data in the capital of Japan, as well as the report on retail sales in Canada. Also, traders shouldn\u2019t forget that the US reporting season has started and Tesla (TSLA), Coca-Cola (KO), T-Mobile (TMUS), Boeing (BA), and semiconductor companies will report this week.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Monday, October 21<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Monday, the world&#8217;s central bank governors and finance ministers will gather in Washington for the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank to discuss how countries can cope with low growth and high debt levels. That could affect medium- to long-term trends. Investors&#8217; attention will also be directed to China&#8217;s central bank meeting. The PBoC is expected to cut rates on both 1-year and 5-year loans to stimulate the economy further. This may boost Asian indices, especially CHA50 and HK50, and indirectly, Australian AU200.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\r\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\r\n<li>\u2013 China PBoC Loan Prime Rate (m\/m) at 04:15 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 German Producer Price Index (m\/m) at 09:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US FOMC Member Kashkari Speaks at 20:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 IMF\/World Bank Annual Meetings (All Day).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Tuesday, October 22<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">No major events are expected on Tuesday. During the day it is worth paying attention to the speeches of representatives of the ECB, the Bank of England (BoE), and the FOMC.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\r\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\r\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand Trade Balance (q\/q) at 00:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US FOMC Member Daly Speaks at 01:40 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 UK BoE Gov Bailey Speaks at 16:20 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US FOMC Member Harker Speaks at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone ECB President Lagarde Speaks at 22:15 (GMT+3).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Wednesday, October 23<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Wednesday, investors will focus on the Bank of Canada (BoC) interest rate decision. The swaps market puts the probability of the BoC cutting the rate by 50 bps at about 85%, up from 55% a week ago. Such a sharp rate cut could put a lot of pressure on the Canadian dollar, especially if oil prices continue to decline (the Canadian dollar is a commodity currency). At the US session, crude oil inventory data will be in the investor&#8217;s focus. Oil prices are under pressure after falling about 7% last week as traders analyze the gloomy demand forecasts in China, the largest importer, and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\r\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\r\n<li>\u2013 Singapore Consumer Price Index (m\/m) at 08:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US FOMC Member Bowman Speaks at 16:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Canada BoC Monetary Policy Report at 16:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Canada BoC Interest Rate Decision at 16:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Existing Home Sales (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone ECB President Lagarde Speaks at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Canada BoC Press Conference at 17:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Crude Oil Reserves (w\/w) at 17:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US FOMC Member Barkin Speaks at 19:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand Gov Orr Speaks at 20:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 UK BoE Gov Bailey Speaks at 23:30 (GMT+3).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Thursday, October 24<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">Thursday, we will see a lot of statistics on business activity in the manufacturing and services sectors for key economies. Overall, the indicators are expected to improve, which may positively affect the national currency. Natural gas inventory data should also not be missed. Gas prices have been under pressure for the last 2 weeks due to lower consumption with high inventories. Rising inventories may put additional pressure on the XNG price and vice versa.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\r\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\r\n<li>\u2013 Australia Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 01:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Australia Services PMI (m\/m) at 01:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Japan Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 03:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Japan Services PMI (m\/m) at 03:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 German Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 10:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 German Services PMI (m\/m) at 10:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 11:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone Services PMI (m\/m) at 11:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 UK Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 11:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 UK Services PMI (m\/m) at 11:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Initial Jobless Claims (w\/w) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Manufacturing PMI (m\/m) at 16:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Services PMI (m\/m) at 16:45 (GMT+3).<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US New Home Sales (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Natural Gas Storage (w\/w) at 17:30 (GMT+3).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Friday, October 25<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Friday, traders should monitor Canada\u2019s retail sales data. Economists expect growth of 0.5%, down from 0.9% last month. Better-than-forecast data may briefly give the Canadian dollar fuel to strengthen. In the Asian session, traders should pay attention to the Tokyo Inflation Rate data, a leading indicator of inflation across the country. Inflation in the Japanese capital is expected to fall from 2.0% to 1.7% y\/y, which will further distance the Bank of Japan from its normalization policy and could seriously hurt the yen.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\r\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\r\n<li>\u2013 Japan Tokyo Core CPI (m\/m) at 02:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 German Ifo Business Climate (m\/m) at 11:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 Canada Retail Sales (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Durable Goods Orders (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\r\n<li>\u2013 US Michigan Consumer Sentiment (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p class=\"ag-analytics_text\">by <span class=\"author vcard\"><span class=\"fn\">JustMarkets<\/span><\/span>, <span class=\"updated\">2024.10.21<\/span><\/p>\r\n<!--a href=\"\/analytics\/daily-forecast\" class=\"ag-analytics_link\">\r\nWe advise you to get acquainted with the daily forecasts for the major currency pairs.\r\n<\/a--> <a class=\"ag-base-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/secure.justmarkets.eu\/es\/register\/?sl=1\">Open Account<\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Week&#8217;s main events (October 21 \u2013 October 25) This week will be less eventful than previous weeks.
