Thursday is the Services PMI day, so let’s take a closer look with the Dukascopy Economic Calendar.
Coming up first at 7 AM is the UK Nationwide House Price Index for December. Home prices have been growing for the past 3 months, but at an increasingly slower pace.
The final estimate of Euro Zone December Services PMI follows at 9, and the initial reading puts the Index at a 10-month high, driven by strong gains in the German service sector.
UK Services PMI for December will be available at half past 9. The November data surprised on the downside as the Index slipped from the 7-month high reached a month ago.
UK Net Lending to Individuals for November is out at the same time. Lending continued growing in October, but at a slower pace than the 5.2 billion increase the previous month.
Coming up next at quarter past 1 is the US ADP National Employment Change for November, and the October report noted a sustained and solid growth in employment; in particular, manufacturing jobs posted a strong increase.
The closely watched weekly update on US Jobless Claims will be available at half past 1. Initial claims stood unchanged during the week ending December 23 whereas the continuing claims rose by 7 thousand during the week ending December 16.
UK BRC Shop Price Index for December is scheduled at one minute past midnight, and the annual decline has stood at the same point 1% figure for the past 3 months.
And Australian Trade Balance for November is out at half past midnight. Trade surplus narrowed quite significantly in October as exports went down and imports increased,
