Wednesday preview: Iran, Ukraine, Global PMIs in focus
(Sharecast News) - Financial markets' focus in the middle of the week will be on geopolitics, with top level officials from the US, Ukraine and Europe set to meet in London. The aim will be to try and agree on a common ceasefire proposal to then present to the Kremlin.
In parallel, the US and Iran will hold 'expert level' talks, in an attempt to defuse the threat to regional stability on account of Tehran's nuclear programme.
Against that backdrop, at 0800 GMT S&P Global will release the result of its Purchasing Managers' Indices for April in the euro area covering manufacturing and services.
Comparable surveys for the UK and US will follow at 0830 GMT and 1345 GMT, respectively.
Earlier, at 0600 GMT, ONS will publish UK public sector net borrowing data for the month of March.
Bank of England chief economist Huw Pill will deliver a speech at 1030 GMT.
He will be followed by BoE Governor Andrew Bailey at 1715 GMT.
