While the first part of the week was relatively calm, today’s macro calendar is exceptionally packed across both Europe and the United States. Markets will first digest PMI readings from the major European economies, before attention quickly shifts to US PCE inflation and GDP figures. Later in the session, investors will also get US PMIs and the University of Michigan consumer sentiment survey.
