The Week Ahead – Busy Data Week

Stock indices struggled throughout the week with the S&P 500 dropping -2.1% with fear of Fed tapering resurfacing. In the week ahead, there are several events with the potential to move the markets including Wednesday’s FOMC meeting. Another market moving event is the European Union’s Single Supervisory Mechanism (SRM) deal. The SRM is a detailed plan for how to deal with and fund troubled EU Banks. The SRM is believed to be the EU’s first viable attempt to start fixing its banking system and provide reliable funding source. I will also be on the watch for any news from China, both economic data and the rising tensions with Japan regarding the Senkaku Islands. To read more and access the entire article click here. This week’s busy economic calendar should provide opportunities in the global financial markets.
