Economic calendar: US services ISM, DOE report

9:46 am 3 August 2022

  • European indices set for flat opening

  • ISM services reading, DOE report on oil inventories

  • Taiwan situation remains on watch

Futures markets point to a flat opening of the European cash session today. Taiwan remains in the center of attention. China announced that it will hold live fire drills around the island in the coming days in response to Pelosi's visit. While tensions between the United States and China are on the rise, chances of a direct military confrontation are rather slim. Nevertheless, markets are prone to swing on news headlines and traders should keep this headline risk in mind.

Economic calendar for the day ahead is packed with services sector survey data. Majority of those will be revisions to July PMI indices but US services ISM reading at 3:00 pm BST may trigger some additional volatility. Among key earnings reporters today one can find Robinhood, Moderna or Ebay.
