A preview of the calendar in European trading later
Howdy, everyone! Hope you're all doing great so far today. It's been a quiet session so far in Asia with mainly some follow through moves from yesterday's trading to note - but ranges have been tight.
The dollar pair with the biggest range so far is USD/JPY and that's a range of 27 pips. Pretty much tells you how things have been going thus far:
Anyway, here's what is coming up later in European trading:
0630 GMT - France Q4 non-farm payrolls
A minor data point, rough indicator of labour market conditions in France. Q3 reading can be found here.
0800 GMT - Spain February final CPI data
Preliminary reading can be found here. Not a major data point as it is the final reading, and also because Eurozone preliminary inflation figures have already been released earlier.
0900 GMT - Italy Q4 unemployment rate
A lagging data point, as we already had January figures released here. Not a market mover by any means.
1000 GMT - US February NFIB small business optimism index
Prior reading can be found here. A minor data point, it's an index which measures the opinion of small businesses on the economic conditions in the country.
That's all on the day in terms of data, but we do have an Ecofin meeting in Brussels on the day. The agenda can be found here.
I wish you all the best of days ahead and as always, good luck with your trading!
