Economic Calendar: two events will shake global markets this week ๐Ÿ“Œ

This week, global markets' attention will be focused on two key events. On the night from Tuesday to Wednesday, we will learn who the new President of the USA will be. Meanwhile, on Thursday, the FOMC Committee will make its decision regarding interest rates in the new political environment.

Particularly high volatility may be observed in the forex market, U.S. Treasury yields, and U.S. stock indices. Already on Monday morning, we are witnessing a significant drop in the dollar's value in the currency market. The UDXIDX index is losing 0.50% at the time of publication, a result of rising odds for a victory of the Democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris. Speculators who previously bet on Trump's win are now taking profits, and just before the official election, we are seeing much higher betting volumes and significant changes in odds. Fundamentally, however, little has changed.

Beyond this, it will also be worth watching the final PMI data for the service sector, which will be released on Tuesday, and the BoE's interest rate decision on Thursday.
