- Futures indicate a higher opening of the session in Europe
- Investors' attention turns to the decisions of the SNB, BoE and Norges Bank
- A little later, investors will learn the data on jobless claims in the US and the report on oil stocks
Futures contracts indicate a higher opening of the session in Europe. This comes after a relatively mixed session in APAC markets, with investors reacting to the PBoC's rate decision and New Zealand GDP data. Today, however, more attention will turn to the decisions of central banks. In this case, these will be the decisions of the SNB (Switzerland), Norges Bank (Norway) and the BoE (Bank of England). Later in the day, investors will also learn about jobless claims in the US and a report on crude oil stocks.
