Week ahead: BoE, ECB in focus
(Sharecast News) - The coming week will bring with it potentially key readings for inflation and employment that some economists believe may decide whether or not the Bank of England cuts interest rates in August. On Wednesday, the Office for National Statistics will publish consumer and producer price figures for the UK in June.
They will be followed by a reading on the next day for employment in May.
Also on Thursday, rate-setters at the European Central Bank will announce their latest policy decision.
No change in rates is anticipated but remarks by ECB president Christine Lagarde will be closely parsed for any actionable guidance.
In the US meanwhile, Tuesday will be the main day for economic data, with readings for monthly retail sales and import prices both due out.
Before that, on Monday, China's National Bureau of Statistics will release a trio of reports covering retail sales, industrial production and fixed asset investment in the Asian giant in June.
