Key Economic Indicators to Watch This Week: Inflation Takes Center Stage
Market Movers of the Week from August 5th to 9th: Key Economic Events Ahead, with Inflation in the Spotlight
This week, the focus will be on a variety of economic data releases, with inflation figures taking center stage.
Among the most anticipated data are the Composite and Services PMI for the Eurozone, Italy, and Germany, as well as the final July Consumer Price Index (CPI) readings for the major European economies.
Market participants will also be closely watching China’s inflation figures to assess whether the deflationary trend is still ongoing.
Updates on German industrial production and the trade balances of the United States and China will also be key points of interest.
