Markit Economics are updating us with the Flash PMIs for February on this Wednesday, so let’s take a look.
Flash Manufacturing PMI data run begins at 8 o’clock with French data. German stats will be released a half an hour later and the whole bloc’s figures are set for publication at 9 AM. Both Services and Manufacturing sectors remain in the expansion territory as PMIs stand well above the 50 level.
UK employment report for January will be released at 9:30 in the morning and it’s a known Sterling mover. Claimant count increased more than expected in the final month of last year, but unemployment rate stood steady at 4.3%, which is the lowest level since 1975.
Then there’s another high importance event for Sterling traders as Bank of England Governor Mark Carney will give evidence to Treasury committee at a quarter past 2 PM.
Flash US PMIs for February are set for publication at 2:45 PM GMT. Both Services and Manufacturing measures remain above the 50 level and no significant moves are expected.
US existing homes sales for January will be available fifteen minutes later. Sales slowed down more than expected in the final month of last year as they dropped from a downwardly revised rate of 5.78 million.
A high importance publication regarding the US economy wraps up this agenda at 7 PM GMT when FOMC release their January monetary policy meeting minutes.
I’m Kiays Khalil and that’s it for Wednesday’s agenda, but do click back for Thursday’s overview. Bye for now.
