Week’s main events (July 15 – July 19)

Inflation data will continue to dominate the economic agenda this week. In Canada, the UK, and New Zealand, inflation is expected to decline, while inflationary pressures are expected to intensify in Japan. Traders should also keep a close eye on China’s economic data. With deflationary forces intensifying, weak economic data could lead to massive stimulus, especially during the Chinese Communist Party’s annual meeting. Also, this week, labor market statistics for Great Britain and Australia will be published. A strong labor market is usually a positive factor for the currency, as it allows the central bank to postpone rate cuts. Several big companies are due to report this week. Volatility on stock indices will increase as the reporting period moves towards the middle.

Monday, July 15
On Monday, investors will focus on China’s economic data. GDP is expected to show 5.1% annualized growth, but other data is expected to be weak. It’s worth keeping in mind that this data significantly impacts Asian indices. It’s a bank holiday in Japan.
Main events of the day:
  • – Chinese GDP (m/m) at 05:00 (GMT+3);
  • Chinese Industrial Production (m/m) at 05:00 (GMT+3);

Tuesday, July 16
On Tuesday, traders should focus on the Canada Consumer Price Index. Analysts expect that in annual terms, inflation in Canada will continue to decline, which will increase the likelihood that the Bank of Canada (BoC) will begin a down cycle as early as this fall. It might be negative for CAD. Investors will also get an update on US retail sales. This indicator shows how consumers spend money during a high interest rate period. Weak data could trigger a sell-off in the US dollar.

Wednesday, July 17
The main event on Wednesday will be the inflation data in the United Kingdom, Eurozone, and New Zealand. Analysts predict that the inflation in New Zealand will decrease from 4.0% to 3.6% y/y, in the UK is expected to see a slight decrease from 2.0% to 1.9% y/y, while in the Eurozone, analysts predict the same figures. As a rule, lower inflation is accompanied by the weakness of the national currency and vice versa. It is also worth remembering that New Zealand inflation data is published quarterly, which increases its importance.

Volatility in currency pairs with the Japanese yen will increase the likelihood that the Bank of Japan will continue to raise rates. Investors should also pay attention to the retail sales data in Canada and the United Kingdom.
