Today’s macroeconomic calendar is relatively light. The main publications will be PMI reports from European countries, followed later by PMI data from the United States.
Despite the Epiphany holiday observed in some countries, stock exchanges generally remain open. Trading schedules vary: several exchanges in Central and Eastern Europe — where it is a public holiday — are closed, while the main Western European markets such as Euronext and the London Stock Exchange, as well as US exchanges (NYSE and Nasdaq), are operating as normal. Asian markets have also mostly been functioning without changes.
