The economic calendar on Tuesday looks relatively empty as just one noteworthy reading is scheduled. Namely, investors will be offered a crude oil inventories data provided by the American Petroleum Institute as usual on Tuesday. On the other hand, some central bankers are scheduled to speak today, including a speech of the Governor of the Bank of England at a conference in Toronto. Apart from that, some major American companies will publish earnings through the day.
