Economic Calendar – Canadian CPI Data in Focus
- Futures are trading mixed before the cash session opens
- The economic calendar primarily includes the Canadian CPI report and US housing market data
- Investors may also react to Home Depot’s quarterly results and possible geopolitical news
Today’s session looks to be quiet. The macro calendar doesn’t contain a large number of data releases, and investors may react secondarily to yesterday’s White House meetings regarding the war in Ukraine. In this regard, we are now awaiting details regarding the physical meeting between Putin and Zelensky and the peace guarantees negotiated within NATO. On the other hand, market attention is slowly turning towards Jackson Hole, where Jerome Powell is scheduled to deliver a speech on the prospects for current and future US monetary policy (Friday).
