Economic calendar: Fed and ECB speakers, retail sales from Canada

8:45 AM 22 November 2022
  • European indices set for flat opening

  • Canadian retail sales for October, API report on US oil inventories

  • Speeches from 3 Fed and 3 ECB members

European index futures point to a flat opening of the cash session on the Old Continent today. This comes after a downbeat Wall Street session yesterday and an upbeat trading in China today. Antipodean currencies - AUD and NZD - are G10 top performers while US dollar lag the most. Weakening of USD provides a lift for precious metals with gold trading 0.3% higher at press time. Major cryptocurrencies are trading little changed with Bitcoin holding below $16,000 mark.

Economic calendar for the day ahead is light but not as light as it was yesterday. Traders will be offered jobs and industrial production data from Poland in the morning as well as rate decision from Hungarian central bank in the early afternoon. When it comes to North American session, the only noteworthy readings are Canadian retail sales and API report on oil inventories. However, major currencies, especially EUR and USD, may see some volatility throughout the day coming from central bankers' speeches.
