This week will be less eventful than the previous week, but there are still a few important economic events that investors should pay attention to. One of the main events this week will be the publication of data on the PCE index, which is on the US Federal Reserve’s list of monitored inflation indicators. The Fed may have surprised markets by cutting rates by a larger-than-expected 50 basis points at its September meeting. Still, it’s worth noting that policymakers have yet to declare victory over inflation. However, this week’s most essential events will be the RBA and SNB meetings. The SNB is expected to cut the rate by 0.25%, while the RBA would prefer to leave rates unchanged amid slowly declining inflation. Investors should also evaluate the Australian inflation data, which will be released on Wednesday, and PMI data, which will be released on Monday and will show the state of the economy of the leading countries.

Flash PMI data, released on Monday, will provide the latest snapshot of the global economy. Economists expect manufacturing activity data to continue to decline, which could support currencies as it increases the likelihood of a rate cut. It’s a bank holiday in Japan.

چهارشنبه, September 25
On Wednesday, investors’ focus should be on Australian inflation data. The annual inflation rate is expected to decline from 3.5% to 2.8% y/y. This will sharply increase the probability that the RBA will cut the rate in November, which could negatively affect the aussie against the US dollar. Also, traders should pay attention to Wednesday’s Swedish Central Bank meeting. The Riksbank is expected to cut the rate from 3.5% to 3.25%, which could negatively influence the Sweden krona (SEK) against major currencies.

Their comments are worth evaluating from a medium-term perspective.

جمعه, September 27
Due out on Friday, the Fed’s favorite inflation indicator will show whether price pressures continue to ease. Economists expect August’s Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index to show a 2.5% annualized rate. A rise in this indicator could support the US dollar, but it also works in the opposite direction. Also, on Friday, traders’ interest will be directed to the data on inflation in Tokyo, which is considered a leading indicator of inflation. Inflation in Tokyo is expected to fall from 2.4% to 2.0%, which may become a problem for the Bank of Japan policy and hurt the yen.
