The markets were pretty quiet early last week ahead of Wednesday’s FOMC Rate Decision announcement. But it didn’t move them that much. All changed on Thursday following Donald Trump’s tweet about the coming trade deal. It set the risk-on mode. What about this week’s potentially market-moving news releases? Let’s take a look at the details.

The week behind
Wednesday’s FOMC Rate Decision brought the most attention last week, but it didn’t move the financial markets that much. Well, stocks, oil, the price of gold jumped and the dollar fell but the changes were unimpressive. The only real short-term game changer happened on Thursday in a form of a tweet from the U.S. President about the coming U.S. - China trade deal. It set the risk-on tone for the markets, and the U.K. Elections just added fuel to the fire on Friday morning. Overall, the economic numbers have been overshadowed by a single Trump’s Twitter message.

The week ahead
What about the coming week? On Monday and on Friday we will get some pretty important economic data releases in the U.S. Then the Wednesday’s Bank of Japan’s monetary policy release may cause some volatility in the financial markets. But will the Thursday’s evening People's Bank of China announcement be as important to the markets? This week’s news from Australia, Canada and the U.K. may also bring some volatility to their exchange rates. Let’s take a look at key highlights:

Monday’s PMI numbers and Friday’s GDP along with Personal Spending and Personal Income numbers will be the most important U.S. economic data releases this week.
The Japanese Yen traders should note Wednesday night in their calendar – there will be important announcements: Monetary Policy Statement, BOJ Policy Rate followed by the BOJ Press Conference.
On Thursday evening we will get the People's Bank of China Loan Prime Rate release. It may be well worth watching.
There will also be lots of domestic economic data releases from Australia, Canada and the U.K. in the coming week. And don’t miss Wednesday’s ECB’s President Lagarde Speech followed by the German Ifo Business Climate number release.

You will find this week’s the key news releases below (EST time zone). For your convenience, we broken them down per market to which they are particularly important, so that you know what to pay extra attention to, if you have or plan to have positions in one of them. Moreover, we put the particularly important news in bold. This kind of news is what is more likely to trigger volatile movements. The news that are not in bold usually don’t result in bigger intraday moves, so unless one is engaging in a particularly active form of day trading, it might be best to focus on the news that we put in bold. Of course, you are free to use the below indications as you see fit. As far as we are concerned, we are usually not engaging in any day trading during days with “bold” events on a given market. However, in case of more medium-term trades, we usually choose to be aware of the increased intraday volatility, but not change the currently opened position.

Our Market News Report consists of two different time-related perspectives. The investors’ perspective is only suitable for the long-term investments. The single economic data releases rarely cause major outlook changes. Hence, we will only see a handful of bold markings every week. On the other hand, the trader’s perspective is for traders and day-traders, because the assets’ prices are likely to react on a single piece of economic data. So, there will be a lot more bold markings on potentially market-moving news every week.
