Economic calendar: US CPI inflation in the spotlight

9:26 AM 13 February 2024
  • European indices pull back
  • GBP gains after UK jobs data, CHF drops on Swiss CPI print
  • US CPI inflation report and German ZEW index in the spotlight

European indices launched today's trading lower, in spite of a mixed trading on Wall Street yesterday and an upbeat trading in Asia earlier today. German DAX drops 0.5%, UK FTSE 100 trades 0.2% lower, French CAC40 declines 0.3% and Dutch AEX slumps almost 0.8%.

Economic calendar for today includes some noteworthy releases. UK jobs data released at 7:00 am GMT turned out to be much better than expected and triggered a jump in the GBP market. Meanwhile, a lower than expected Swiss CPI reading for January put pressure on CHF. There is one more important release scheduled for the European morning - German ZEW index for February. However, a key release of the day will come in the early afternoon - US CPI inflation print for January. US report is expected to show headline CPI dropping below 3% YoY for the first time since March 2021. Among today's earnings highlights one can find reports from Coca-Cola and Robinhood Markets.
