This week is going to be almost entirely focused on the USD, as crucial non-Farm Payrolls related data will be released towards the end of the week. In fact there is at least one high-impact event concerning the USD every day this week. Of course nobody is expecting a rate rise before December at the earliest, but as the USD remains the strongest currency around at the moment, the market will be watching this data closely.
Apart from that, the busiest schedule will be the British one, plus one economic item for each of the commodity currencies. These currencies are relatively week so the news might well drive existing trends further this week.
U.S. Dollar
This will be a crucial and busy week for the greenback beginning on Monday with an interview of the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. This is followed by a release of CB Consumer Confidence data on Tuesday, and then the usual build up to NFP data, with the ADP Non-Farm Employment Change coming out on Wednesday. Later that same evening, the Chair of the Federal Reserve will make public remarks at a conference. On Thursday we will get two rounds of crucial data: Unemployment Claims and ISM Manufacturing PMI numbers. Finally on Friday the crucial Non-Farm Payrolls data will be released, along with the Unemployment Rate and Average Hourly Earnings data.
British Pound
It should be a relatively full week for the Pound, commencing with a speech by the Governor of the Bank of England on Tuesday. There will be a release of Current Account data on Wednesday, and Manufacturing PMI on Thursday. Finally on Friday we will get Construction PMI data.
