Euro-zone CPI: Friday, 9:00. The Consumer Price Index is going nowhere fast in the old continent. Subdued levels of inflation are behind the European Central Bank’s desire to reduce interest rates. Headline CPI rose by 1.1% in July and will likely remain around these levels in the preliminary read for August. Core CPI disappointed with 0.9% last month and a repeat of a sub-1% figure may weigh on the euro.
US Core PCE: Friday, 12:30. The Personal Consumption Expenditures is the Fed’s preferred measure of inflation and uses a different formula than the Consumer Price Index report (released earlier). After Core CPI surprised with 2.2% year on year in July, we may see Core PCE accelerating from 1.6% to 1.7%. The monthly figure has risen by 0.2% in the past three months.
Canadian GDP: Friday, 12:30. Canada publishes its GDP figures on a monthly basis but the upcoming release for June concludes the second quarter and has greater importance than usual. The Canadian economy has outperformed some of its peers in recent months. Can this continue? After experiencing a 0.2% expansion in May, a more moderate growth rate may be seen in June.
