European stock markets set for higher opening
-
ECB minutes and US Q2 GDP report revision
-
Jackson Hole agenda to be released tonight
Futures markets point to a higher opening of the European cash session with DAX futures trading more than 100 points above yesterday's cash close. EUR caught a bid ahead of the European morning trade, allowing EURUSD to climb back above 1.00 mark. Elsewhere, oil is trading slightly lower while precious metals benefit from the USD weakness.
A key event of the week - Powell's speech at Jackson Hole - is scheduled for tomorrow but full agenda of the event will be released around 1:00 am BST. While it is unlikely to trigger big market moves, it will provide some more clarity on what to expect from the event, and whether any other top central bankers are scheduled to speak.
