- Riskbank expected to deliver 25 bp rate hike
European index futures point to a flat or slightly higher opening for major blue chips indices from the Old Continent today. This comes after a mixed session in Asia-Pacific where major indices struggled to find a common direction. Economic calendar for the day ahead includes some interesting releases, especially from Europe. Traders will be offered flash CPI readings from Spain and Germany that will likely shape expectations ahead of reading for whole euro area tomorrow. Apart from that, investors will get another revision of US Q1 GDP data as well as weekly reports on jobless claims and natural gas storage. Riksbank is expected to deliver a 25 basis point rate hike today at 8:30 am BST.
Fed Chair Powell spoke at 7:30 am BST today - he repeated that the majority of Fed members expect 2 or more rate hikes by the end of year. He also said that recent bank failures underscore the need for stronger regulation and supervision.
