Week’s main events (June 09 – June 13)
Market volatility is expected to remain subdued this week. This is largely due to a relatively light economic calendar and the typical seasonal slowdown in market activity during the summer months. Key data releases to watch include US inflation figures and labor market data from the United Kingdom. In the United States, inflation is expected to rise, which may prompt the Federal Reserve to delay potential interest rate cuts. This development could further strain relations between the Fed and President Trump, who has been publicly urging Chair Powell to implement rate cuts immediately. In the UK, upcoming GDP and labor market reports will be critical in assessing whether the Bank of England can maintain its current policy stance. Weaker-than-expected data may increase the probability of a rate cut before the autumn. Additionally, inflation data from China, Norway, Germany, and Mexico will also be in focus this week.
