German ZEW seen at 73.9 in March
Futures market point to a higher opening of the European cash session as vaccine concerns seem to ease. US retail sales data for February at 12:30 pm GMT is a key macro release of the day. Decline is expected following a stellar reading in January boosted by stimulus checks. Recently agreed $1,400 stimulus checks will most likely be visible in March or April data. Apart from that, German ZEW index and US industrial production data may also provide some short-term volatility.
10:00 am GMT - Germany, ZEW index for March. Expected: 73.9. Previous: 71.2
