Busy central bank week ahead
This week brings a flurry of key events for market participants. Central bank decisions from Canada, the EU, and the Swiss National Bank are in focus. A potential rate cut by Switzerland could inject fresh volatility into markets, although the Swiss Franc might continue its strengthening trend. The Canadian Dollar remains weak against most other currencies, with the USD gaining momentum against the Loonie. Meanwhile, the EUR continues to rally, pushing markets higher. In the US, CPI data will be closely watched. Will inflation continue to decline, further shaping the Fed's policy outlook?
Market talk
Crypto markets seem to start the fresh week with slight profit taking for now. Bitcoin and Ripple might continue to face some headwinds. Furthermore also the JPY is losing some steam. The Japanese Yen still remains in positive territory and all pairs might run lower at some point. Stock markets also continue their positive sentiment but candlesticks stay small. The year- end rally might still be in play.
