In terms of volatility risks, this week is relatively quiet. However, there are some key events and data that you need to keep a tab on.
What to watch for over the coming days:
- Central Banks:
Several Federal Reserve officials are set to speak on monetary policies this week. Minneapolis Fed president Neel Kashkari and Chicago Fed president Charles Evans, both of whom dissented against a rate rise in December are among the list of speakers. So too are outgoing New York Fed president Bill Dudley, Boston Fed head Eric Rosengren, Atlanta Federal head Raphael Bostic, St. Louis Federal President James Bullard and San Francisco head John Williams.
- Economic data:
Not many economic data to keep your tab on but U.S. inflation and retail sales reports are must watch on Friday.
- Geopolitics:
South and North Korea would hold high-level talks on 9th January, first such meeting in more than two years. Palestine Liberation Organization’s (PLO) central committee will meet on 14th January to discuss the next course of action.
Along with the above fundamentals, unscheduled Brexit commentaries, happenings in the Middle East, Spain’s Catalonia, and Korean peninsula are likely to keep influencing the market.
