At the macroeconomic agenda this Thursday, to be followed in priority for the Bover, across the Atlantic, the final data of GDP2 and the weekly registrations for unemployment benefits at 2:30 p.m.
Yesterday, the Bover was able to take the measure of the business climate in Germany, thanks to the IFO index, emerged slightly at 87.7, against the consensus, mainly due to the “perspective” component of the index, which melts much faster than the component “current feeling”.
Tomorrow, as a statistical highlight of the week, the operators on currencies will take note of the PCEs, consumer prices in the United States, the most direct measurement of retail prices for the individuals, and the preferred indicator of the Fed in its appreciation of inflation.

To the chagrin of Donald Trump, he reaffirmed his prudent posture in the process under monetary easing. The president of the American Federal Reserve (Fed) warned Tuesday against “too sustained” declines of guiding rates that would slip inflation, while a governor wants to strike hard and quickly.

According to him, interest rates are currently “at the right level to react to potential economic developments”.
Recall that the Fed lowered its key rates last week for the first time of the year, a quarter of percentage. These rates, which guide borrowing costs, are now in a range between 4% and 4.25%. The primary motivation for this drop in rates was employment, whose signs of weakness are increasing.
