Economic calendar: US Manufacturing ISM, final PMIs from Europe and Eurozone CPI flash in market spotlight 📊

8:55 AM 3 February 2025
  • Futures on European indices are losing pressured by the weakest session in six months in Asia and a sell-off across the United States equities. EU50 and DAX lose 1.9% and 1.6%, respectively 
  • Investor attention focuses on tariffs and global trade tensions; dollar strengthens; USDCAD and USDMXN lose
  • Macro focus will be on preliminary CPI and final manufacturing PMI readings from Europe and January ISM manufacturing from the United States scheduled at 3 PM GMT

U.S. indices opened the week with a downward gap, and it seems that if tariffs are not cancelled by Trump at the last minute, current conditions will allow markets to further correct the sentiment from the end of last year. The Fed estimates that the tariffs proposed at the current level will add about 0.7 percentage points to PCE inflation and reduce US GDP by more than 1.2 percentage points. We see U.S. 2-year yields rising today, against a further stabilization in 10-year Treasury bond yields, showing that the market is primarily concerned about the short-term impact of the tariffs on U.S. inflation. We still do not know whether China and Mexico will impose retaliatory tariffs on the US.
