Economic calendar: EU leaders reach agreement

07:24 21 July 2020
  • EU leaders reached agreement on recovery fund

  • Poland and Canada report retail sales data

  • Coca-Cola and Lockheed Martin among earnings reporters

Moods on the global markets are positive ahead of the European cash session open. European leaders reached an agreement on the shape of a massive €750 billion EU post-Covid recovery fund (€390 billion in grants, €360 billion in loans). However, traders should be aware that some "buy-the-rumour, sell-the-fact" trading may occur after European cash session launches. Apart from that, there is not much on the calendar that could move the market today.
