Market Impact Analysis
- BoJ Core CPI & Monetary Policy Minutes: Stable inflation and any signals of future monetary policy from the minutes could influence JPY. If inflation remains subdued, the BoJ is likely to continue its accommodative stance, keeping JPY stable or weaker.
- US Building Permits & New Home Sales: A rise in building permits and strong new home sales would indicate continued strength in the housing market, supporting USD. Weaker data may signal a cooling market, potentially softening USD.
- Crude Oil Inventories: A further decline in crude oil inventories could push oil prices higher, influencing energy markets and commodity-linked currencies like CAD. A rise in inventories may pressure prices lower.
- ECB McCaul Speech: Any comments on inflation or economic policy may influence EUR, particularly if they address ongoing monetary tightening or economic risks in the Eurozone.
Overall Impact
- Volatility: Moderate to high, with a focus on US housing data and crude oil inventories influencing the USD and energy markets. BoJ data may influence JPY.
- Impact Score: 7/10, as key housing and energy data are likely to drive market movements, along with any surprises from the BoJ minutes.
