This week will have a heavier news agenda than last week. The agenda will be dominated by only a few items of high-impact U.S. data centered on the mid-point of this week, as well as meeting minutes from the Reserve Bank of Australia. Therefore, volatility this week should be higher than it was last week.
The market will probably be most active on Wednesday and Thursday.
