The Reserve Bank of New Zealand meets early on May 28 and is expected to cut its cash target rate by a quarter-point to 3.25%. In the United States, the release of the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index will be closely monitored, as FOMC policymakers regard it as a more precise measure of inflation compared to the CPI report. While a modest uptick is anticipated, markets have largely priced in this expectation, limiting its potential impact on volatility. Germany and Australia will also publish inflation reports, with ongoing signs of declining inflationary pressures. Meanwhile, Tokyo&#8217;s inflation data, set for release on Friday, will be of particular interest as market participants assess potential shifts in the Bank of Japan&#8217;s monetary policy stance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Monday, May 26<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">Monday is anticipated to be a low-volatility trading day due to public holidays in the UK and the US. During the Asian session, market participants will likely focus on Hong Kong&#8217;s trade balance data. Significant market-moving news is not expected.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 Hong Kong Trade Balance (m\/m) at 11:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Eurozone ECB President Lagarde Speaks at 17:30 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Tuesday, May 27<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">Tuesday\u2019s key economic release will be the Durable Goods Orders report, which provides insight into business investment trends. This data is typically subject to revisions, with the Factory Orders report, published approximately one week later, offering a more refined assessment. Overall, market volatility is expected to remain muted throughout the day.<\/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 Trade Balance (m\/m) at 09:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German GfK Consumer Climate (m\/m) at 09:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Durable Goods Orders (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US CB Consumer Confidence (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Switzerland SNB Chairman Schlegel Speaks at 19:20 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Wednesday, May 28<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">Wednesday is expected to bring heightened market activity, with several key events scheduled across major regions. During the Asian trading session, investors will closely examine Australia\u2019s inflation data alongside the Reserve Bank of New Zealand\u2019s (RBNZ) interest rate decision. Australian year-over-year consumer price inflation is expected to edge down from 2.4% to 2.3%, reinforcing the disinflation trend. The RBNZ is anticipated to reduce its policy rate by 25 basis points, with market pricing in a terminal rate in the range of 2.75% to 3.00%. Later in the day, attention will shift to the release of the minutes from the latest Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, during which the US Federal Reserve maintained its benchmark rate at 4.5%. Market response to the minutes is expected to be muted, given the widely anticipated decision and limited forward guidance.<\/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 Consumer Price Index (m\/m) at 04:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand RBNZ Interest Rate Decision at 05:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand RBNZ Rate Statement at 05:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 New Zealand RBNZ Press Conference at 06:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German Unemployment Rate at 10:55 (m\/m) (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Richmond Manufacturing Index (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US FOMC Meeting Minutes at 21:00 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Thursday, May 29<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">On Thursday, market participants will closely monitor the release of preliminary US GDP data, which is projected to indicate negative 0.3% quarterly, sharply down from positive 2.4% in the previous period. A weaker-than-expected data could provide pressure on the US dollar. Additionally, energy market traders will analyze updates on crude oil and natural gas inventories. An increase in stockpiles may exert downward pressure on these commodities, reflecting potential shifts in supply-demand dynamics.<\/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 ANZ Business Confidence (m\/m) at 04:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Consumer Confidence (m\/m) at 08:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Initial Jobless Claims (w\/w) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US GDP (q\/q) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Pending Home Sales (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 US Crude Oil Reserves (w\/w) at 18:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 UK BOE Gov Bailey Speaks at 22:00 (GMT+3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title\">Friday, May 30<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list\">Friday&#8217;s market activity is expected to be significantly influenced by two major inflation reports. The most critical release will be the US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index. This data is a preferred inflation gauge for the Federal Reserve and is closely monitored for its implications on monetary policy adjustments. While a month-on-month increase of 0.1% is anticipated, this expectation may already be priced into the market, potentially limiting any significant positive impact on the US dollar. Traders should be prepared for increased volatility around this release, as deviations from expectations could trigger notable market reactions. Traders should also pay close attention to the Tokyo inflation report, which serves as a crucial leading indicator for nationwide inflation trends in Japan. Economists are expecting a year-on-year increase from 3.4% to 3.5%. A stronger-than-expected reading could positively impact the Japanese yen, as it would likely reinforce expectations for further interest rate hikes from the Bank of Japan.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ag-analytics_title-list__strong\">Main events of the day:<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ag-analytics_list\">\n<li>\u2013 Japan Tokyo Core CPI (m\/m) at 02:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Unemployment Rate (m\/m) at 02:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Retail Sales (m\/m) at 02:50 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Japan Industrial Production (m\/m) at 02:50 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Australia Retail Sales (m\/m) at 04:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German Retail Sales (m\/m) at 09:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Switzerland KOF Leading Indicators (m\/m) at 10:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 German Inflation Rate (m\/m) at 15:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Canada GDP (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Core PCE Index (m\/m) at 15:30 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Chicago PMI (m\/m) at 16:45 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 US Revised UoM Inflation Expectations (m\/m) at 17:00 (GMT+3);<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ag-analytics_text\">by <span class=\"author vcard\"><span class=\"fn\">JustMarkets<\/span><\/span>, 2025.05.26<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"ag-base-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/secure.justmarkets.eu\/pt\/register\/?sl=1\">Open Account<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Week&#8217;s main events (May 26 \u2013 May 30) Market volatility is expected to remain subdued this week, with investors primarily focused on inflation data.
