Flash CPI inflation data for August from Spain and Germany will be released on Thursday, while flash data from France will see daylight on Friday.

US100
Wall Street earnings season for Q2 2024 is slowly coming to a close. However, there is one more report that everyone is waiting for, and it will be released next Wednesday after the close of US session - Nvidia earnings for fiscal-Q2 2025 (calendar May - July 2024). Given the size of the company and that it is the main driver of the ongoing AI-craze in the markets, earnings release may have a big impact on sentiment towards the tech sector and be an important driver of US100 moves next week.
USDCAD
While the PCE report for July is a key macro release from the United States next week, investors' will also be offered other macro reports from the world's biggest economy. Those include durable goods orders data for July (Monday), Conference Board index for August (Thursday), revision of Q2 GDP data (Thursday) and revision of University of Michigan data for August (Friday). Those combined with Q2 GDP release from Canada on Friday may keep the USDCAD pair moving next week.
