This looks like being a fairly quiet week ahead, especially on Monday which is a public holiday in the USA, Japan and Canada. It should be a fairly quiet week for the Forex market, with scheduled data releases focusing mostly on the USD and GBP. The currencies that were in sharpest focus at the end of last week were the New Zealand and Australian dollars, and so the two Australian items due may take on more importance than usual.

u.s. Dollar

Monday is a public holiday. Wednesday will see the release of PPI and Retail Sales data. On Thursday there will be a release of CPI, Unemployment Claims, and Philly Fed Manufacturing Index data. Finally, on Friday we will get the Preliminary UoM Consumer Sentiment index data.

British Pound

It looks like being a fairly quiet week for the Pound, starting on Tuesday will CPI data. Wednesday will see the release of the Average Earnings Index and Claimant Count Change data.

Australian Dollar

The Aussie this week will see NAB business Confidence data on Tuesday and Employment Change and Unemployment Rate data on Thursday.

Canadian Dollar

Monday is a public holiday, but at the end of that day the Governor of the Bank of Canada will be speaking. It will be a very quiet week ahead for the Loonie, with nothing scheduled except Manufacturing Sales data on Friday.

New Zealand Dollar

A very quiet week ahead for the Kiwi, with only CPI data due on Friday.

Euro

A very quiet week ahead for the Euro, with only German ZEW Economic Sentiment due on Tuesday.
