Week ahead: Global PMIs, US activity data in focus

by | Nov 19, 2022

Investors’ focus over the following week was likely to be on the release of a raft of purchasing managers’ surveys for manufacturing and services on either side of the Atlantic.
S&P Global’s preliminary manufacturing and services PMIs for November were due out on Wednesday in the euro area, UK and US.

Although the PMIs provided one of the earliest readings each month on the state of activity, of late they had sometimes been subject to non-negligible revisions.

Even so, they often elicited large movements in financial markets.

US markets were to remain closed on Thursday in observance of the Thanksgiving Day holiday and would only open for a shortened session on Friday.

For that reason, Wednesday would bring with it a deluge of economic data Stateside.

Among the key indicators due out were readings for durable goods orders, jobless claims, consumer confidence and new home sales.

The minutes of the US central bank’s most recent policy meeting were also due out on Wednesday.

On home shores meanwhile, at least three Monetary Policy Committee members, Dave Ramsden, Huw Pill and Catherine Mann were scheduled to deliver remarks, all on Thursday.

In Germany, Thursday would bring with it the closely followed business confidence survey from the IFO institute.

Readings for German consumer confidence and third quarter GDP were due out on Friday.
