UK wages
Tuesday, June 10
13:30 BST
Lots of UK data due this week, with Average Earnings Index perhaps being the most important given the Bank of England’s focus on services inflation after CPI came in hotter than expected in May. If wages continue to remain hot, then this will make it difficult for the BoE to trim rates after delivering a hawkish cut last time.

US CPI

US CPI surprised to the downside last month with a print of 2.3% vs. 2.4% eyed, while several other data releases came in weaker to put pressure on the Fed to cut rates. But it was tariffs uncertainty that weighed the most on the greenback. However, with the US and China starting trade talks again, some of those worries have receded. Will CPI data provide the dollar bulls some encouragement?

Revised figures from last month showed a slight improvement but with trade uncertainty receding further, a bigger improvement in sentiment could support to the dollar.
