The first three days of this week almost completely lack important economic and financial data items that deserve investors’ attention. However, Thursday deserves special attention, as three US tech giants – Apple, Amazon and Facebook – are due to release their earnings reports. On the same day, the ECB and the Bank of Japan are scheduled to report their interest rate decisions. On Friday, the focus will be on the third quarter GDP of Germany, France and the EU, as well as on the US personal spending.

This week, we call your attention to a few key events, most of which are concentrated in two days, Tuesday and Thursday. In the period Tuesday to Thursday, US banks’ Q3 data are to be released. On Tuesday, China is releasing its trade balance data. Expectations here are for high external demand and somewhat weaker, though fairly good, internal demand figures. On the same day, September’s UK employment figures will grab investors’ attention. Later on, in the day, the US is scheduled to report its CPI, which marked its highest rate of increase for the last five months in August.

Weekly Market Outlook

This week marks the resumption of EU/UK trade talks on Monday. The most recent developments give grounds for concern about further postponement of the deadline for the agreement. On Wednesday, markets are expecting to see the fresh EU flash CPI numbers, against a background of limited monetary action from the ECB. One more highlight for the day is the UK’s final GDP for Q2. Global manufacturing PMIs are due Thursday. Friday draws investors’ attention to the most important data for the entire week: the US unemployment report. Some analysts see a marginal decrease in unemployment rate. This, of course, is far from certain, so surprises in these figures could result in high volatility.
