Key Events In The Coming Week

The US may be closed on Monday, but after a summer lull that has seen trading volumes plunge to CYNKian lows, activity is set to come back with a bang (if only for the sake of banks’ flow desk revenue) with both a key ECB decision due later this week, as well as the August Nonfarm Payrolls print set for Friday. Among the other events, in the US we have the ISM manufacturing on Tuesday, with markets expecting a broadly unchanged reading of 57.0 for August although prices paid are expecting to decline modestly. Then it is ADP on Thursday (a day later than usual) ahead of Payrolls Friday. The Payrolls print is again one of those “most important ever” number since it comes ahead of the the September 16-17 FOMC meeting and on the heels of the moderation of several key data series (retail sales, personal consumption, inflation). Consensus expects a +225K number and this time it is unclear if a big miss will be great news for stocks or finally bad, as 5 years into ZIRP the US economy should be roaring on all cylinders and not sputtering every other month invoking “hopes” of even more central bank intervention.

  • Australia | MP Decision: We expect rates on hold (cash rate 2.50%, in line with consensus). Markets will be focused on how the RBA has interpreted key developments since the lengthy parliamentary testimony on 20 August.

  • Poland | MP Decision: We expect rates on hold (base rate at 2.50%, in line with consensus) and unchanged since the easing cycle ended in July 2013. Though in line with consensus, this is more hawkish than the forwards, which are pricing in a cut of roughly 25bp next week. Although macro conditions could justify cuts, we think the MPC is not yet convinced that the Polish economy would benefit from easing.
  • Romania | GDP QoQ (2Q P): Previous -1.00% (1.20% yoy)
  • Turkey | CPI YoY (Aug): GS 9.00%, consensus 9.40% (0.00% mom), previous 9.32% (0.45% mom)
  • Brazil | MP Decision: We expect rates on hold (Selic rate at 11.00%, in line with consensus) and for the Copom to reiterate a broadly neutral bias going forward given the still challenging inflation dynamics despite a weak growth environment.
  • Also interesting: [DM] US MBA Mortgage Applications, ISM New York and Vehicle Sales; Euro area Retail Sales; Japan Factory Orders and Vehicle Sales; Singapore Automobile COE Open Bid Cat A; New Zealand Global Dairy Trade Auction and Value of Building Work [EM] Hungary Retail Sales; Turkey PPI; Argentina Vehicle Sales.
