Revised European CPI data for March
European stock market indices are set for a slightly higher opening of today's cash session. DAX futures currently trade around 40 points above yesterday's cash close. ECB members struck more hawkish tone rate hikes, making EUR the best performing G10 currency. EURUSD is approaching 1.09 for the first time in a week.
There are few interesting macro releases scheduled for today but, unfortunately, neither of them is considered to be a top-tier market-moving event. European CPI data will be a revision and therefore should not have much of an impact on the markets. However, chiefs of Fed and BoE will deliver speeches today. Powell's speech at 6:00 pm BST will be closely watched as it will be delivered during an IMF event and will touch on the topic of the global economy.
