- European indices set for lower opening
- US CPI expected to ease slightly
- DOE report on US oil inventories
Futures markets point to a lower opening of the European cash session today, extending downbeat moods seen on the stock exchanges in the Asia-Pacific region. Similar sentiment can be spotted on precious metals and cryptocurrencies markets while energy commodities pull back.
Calendar for the day ahead includes some interesting releases. A top macro event of the day will be a release of the US CPI inflation report for July at 1:30 pm BST. Price pressure is expected to decrease slightly, however, the core reading is estimated to have increased from 5.9% in June to 6.1% in July. Continued acceleration in price growth will give the Fed more courage to tighten policy quickly. Oil may see some moves following the release of the DOE report (3:30 pm BST).
