Week Beginning October 16, 2017
This week features the potentially pivotal 19th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, which begins on Wednesday. Developments during this major meeting of top government leaders in the world’s second largest economy could make a significant impact on the Chinese yuan, Australian dollar, and US dollar, among others.
The Australian dollar could also be impacted by the release of RBA meeting minutes on Tuesday and the Australian jobs report on Thursday. The week additionally features critical economic data releases potentially affecting the British pound, including UK CPI inflation data on Tuesday, key UK jobs numbers on Wednesday, and retail sales figures on Thursday.

Week Beginning October 23, 2017
This otherwise relatively light week in terms of global economic data will be dominated by two major central bank decisions – the Bank of Canada (BoC) on Wednesday and the European Central Bank (ECB) on Thursday. Clearly, the Canadian dollar and the euro will be the major focus as markets assess whether the BoC will continue its policy path to higher interest rates and if the ECB will provide any further indication of plans to taper its massive economic stimulus program.

Week Beginning October 30, 2017
This week will be an exceptionally busy one in terms of key macroeconomic events and data releases. The week begins with the Federal Reserve’s favorite inflation indicator, the PCE price index, which could impact the Fed’s policy stance and, in turn, the US dollar.
Tuesday features the Bank of Japan’s interest rate decision, monetary policy statement, and outlook report, which will be critical for the Japanese yen.
On Wednesday, the Fed will take center stage once again on the conclusion of its FOMC meeting and the release of its rate decision and policy statement. No changes are expected at this meeting – markets are currently expecting the next rate hike to occur in December – but the content of this November meeting will be important in setting expectations going forward.
Also from the US on Wednesday will be the ISM manufacturing PMI data along with the ADP private employment release, a heavily anticipated precursor to the official non-farm payrolls report. Outside of the US on Wednesday, other key releases will include the New Zealand employment figures and key manufacturing PMI data from the UK, China, and the euro area.
On Thursday, the clear focus will be on the Bank of England’s interest rate decision, monetary policy summary, and inflation report, all of which are highly likely to make a significant impact on the British pound.
Finally, on Friday, the US takes center stage once again as US non-farm payrolls data is released, along with wage growth numbers and the unemployment rate. Aside from these major US jobs figures, key services PMI data will also be released from the US, UK, euro area, and China.

After a frenzied previous week, this week slows down considerably, but still features two major central bank decisions – the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) on Tuesday and Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) on Thursday. The AUD/NZD currency pair will clearly be in focus during the week. Another major event will occur on Friday with Canada’s release of its key employment data.

From the US, PPI and CPI will be released on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, while US retail sales data also comes out on Wednesday. The euro area reports quarterly GDP on Tuesday and annual CPI on Thursday. Finally, Canada’s CPI and retail sales releases occur on Friday.
