Global Weekly Indicators

Summary

Next week is going to be a very lean one, when it comes to talking about economic indicators in developed countries. However, it is going to be full of conferences featuring members of central banks worldwide. In the US, investors will focus on the FOMC minutes from the 17-18 June meeting. Moreover, several Fed speakers will attend the Jackson Hole Economic Summit (Evans, Lockhart and Plosser), while others will be delivering speeches at different events (Lacker, George, Fischer and Evans). In Europe, the ECB will release its monthly report, while the bank’s Cœuré and Nowotny will deliver speeches. Furthermore, next week’s Eurogroup and ECOFIN meetings will review the financial and macroeconomic stability developments in the euro area, including monitoring of individual Member States (more specifically, the Greek adjustment programme) and some aspects of banking union. Economic releases will include May’s job openings and consumer credit in the US, May’s industrial production, current account and exports in Germany and June’s CPI, producer prices and trade balance in China.
