Rate decisions from SNB, Norges Bank, BoE and CBRT today
European futures markets point to a lower opening of the cash session on the Old Continent today. Moods deteriorated overnight as traders digested yesterday's FOMC decision and Powell's presser. While a key central bank decision is already behind us, there is more to come from central banks this week. Investors will be offered rate decisions from 4 central banks today - SNB, Norges Bank, CBRT and BoE. CBRT is the only one expected to leave rates unchanged while three remaining are expected to hike. Attention will be mostly on rate decisions from BoE and SNB. Apart from central banks, a weekly jobless claims report as well as regular EIA report on natural gas storage will be released.
