Week’s main events (March 31 – April 04)
On the economic calendar, this week will be much calmer than the previous one, with Friday’s main event being the PCE core price index, the Fed’s favorite measure of inflation. Also, this week, inflation data from the UK, Australia, Mexico, Singapore, and Japan will be released. Inflationary pressures are expected to ease slightly. Quarterly US and UK GDP data will be released on Thursday and Friday, showing how the economy is doing during the tariff uncertainty. And, of course, traders should not forget about geopolitics: Ukraine and Russia, with the participation of the United States, are trying to move forward in negotiations, but the process is very difficult. There has also been an escalation of conflicts in the Middle East. All these factors affect investor sentiment and assets such as oil, gas, and European indices.
