Retail sales data from Canada and Poland
European stock markets launched today's trading lower following a disappointing US and Asian trading session. The US dollar is the best performing major currency this morning, exerting pressure on commodity prices. GBP and NZD are top G10 laggards.
Economic calendar for the day ahead is light. Traders will be offered retail sales data from Poland and Canada but impact of those is likely to be limited to PLN and CAD markets. When it comes to earnings, reports from American Express and Verizon Communications are on the agenda today.
