Week’s main events (June 24 – June 28)

There will be several important events in the coming week. The main event will be the inflation data in Canada and Australia. Inflationary pressures are expected to fall in both, but there may be surprises. Also, the US, Canada, and UK GDP data will be released this week. This data will show how the economy works during high interest rates. Typically, GDP growth is accompanied by a stronger currency, as a strong economy allows the central bank to hold rates further to fight inflation. The Fed’s favorite measure of inflation, the Personal Consumption Expenditures  (PCE) Price Index, will be released on Friday and should show whether the emerging slowdown in inflation continues. The latest PCE reading was not in line with expectations. Another such reading could undermine the case for a rate cut soon.

Monday, June 24
On Monday, investors will focus on Germany’s Business Climate from Ifo. This data is based on approx. 9,000 monthly responses from businesses in manufacturing, the service sector, trade, and construction. Also, traders should not miss the Canada BoC Gov Macklem Speech.

Tuesday, June 25
Canada will release its inflation report on Tuesday. In annualized terms, the inflation rate is expected to decline from 2.7% to 2.6%. However, the Bank of Canada likes to focus on median figures. Also, the market participants will follow the US CB confidence report. Consumer confidence is expected to decline, which could negatively affect the US dollar.

Wednesday, June 26
On Wednesday, traders should focus on Australia’s consumer inflation data. Inflation is expected to decline from 3.6% to 3.5% annually. For the RBA, this is not enough to start lowering rates. Therefore, the Australian dollar may even become a factor in its strengthening. Also not to be missed is the weekly crude oil inventories report. Given the limited supply and growing geopolitical risks, lower inventories may significantly support the price of black gold.

The report is expected to show lower prices, but there could be surprises. Also, traders should watch Tokyo inflation data and the UK GDP report on Friday. The Tokyo inflation report is a precursor to overall inflation for the country, and the Bank of Japan is keen to see this figure rise. As for the UK, economists forecast a modest 0.6% quarter-on-quarter increase. But it will be positive for the British currency.
