The US will be quite modest in terms of publishing macro statistics. However, there still will be room for analysis. Firstly, take a look at the Market services and production PMI and the leading indicator index for March.

The JPY against the USD looks weak and will remain like this for some time. For a broader understanding of what is going on in the Japanese economy, check out base inflation statistics for March and the production PMI. Inflation might demonstrate growth, which will support the JPY.





GBP: any good news matters





GBP: any good news matters




The GBP is again falling: the GBP/USD pair might renew the local lows. This week, what matter are the British retail sales statistics for March and the CCI for April. Any positive news will support the GBP.
