Week’s main events (May 20 – May 24)

On Wednesday, the Fed is scheduled to release the minutes of its May 1 meeting, where Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said rates are likely to remain on hold for a long time amid persistent inflationary pressures. The US, China, the Eurozone, and the UK will release PMI data for May, which should bolster optimism about the global economy. Investors should also closely monitor the New Zealand Reserve Bank meeting as the RBNZ is not yet finished with monetary policy tightening. The UK will release April Consumer Price Index data on Wednesday. Economists expect the annual rate of inflation to have slowed sharply. Several Fed officials are also scheduled to speak during the week, which could provide clues as to the US Fed’s plans for the summer.

Monday, May 20
On Monday, traders should focus on Asian indices as China will release influential data. The US session should focus on the FOMC officials’ speech. It’s a bank holiday in Canada, Switzerland, France and Germany.

Tuesday, May 21
Canada will release inflation data on Tuesday. However, no significant changes in the indicators are expected. Also, during the day, officials from the ECB, the Bank of England, and the US Federal Reserve will speak. As a rule, the speeches do not bring a sharp change in volatility but affect the medium-term trends because the probabilities of rate cuts are re-evaluated after the comments.

Wednesday, May 22
On Wednesday, investors will focus on the FOMC minutes and the New Zealand RBNZ Interest Rate Decision. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is expected to leave rates unchanged for the seventh consecutive meeting amid persistent inflation and a slowing economy. However, volatility in pairs with the New Zealand dollar could spike. As for the FOMC minutes, all analysts will examine the report for clues on when the US Federal Reserve plans to begin its rate-cutting campaign. If it clarifies that it’s worth keeping rates at the same level until the fall, it could bring some confidence to the US dollar. The UK inflation data should also be on the sheet for traders. Core inflation is expected to fall to 3.6% y/y from 4.2% y/y, while the overall rate is expected to fall to 2.3% y/y. This will be a victory over inflation, but for the GBP, it will be a negative scenario, bringing it closer to the first-rate cut from the Bank of England.
