The Week Ahead - Focus Offshore


US markets will be driven by offshore events this week. The slowing offshore is tied to reckless Fed policy and central bank braking. The following releases then are key: EU PPI (6/6) and EU Retail Sales (6/7), German Factory Orders (6/7) and Ind Production (6/8), Germany CPI (6/10) and China’s Trade Balance (6/10).

Higher price figures may get a pass due to the recent slip in commodity prices, in turn giving central banks license to hold fire.
