US equity is stabilising as reports of major progress in US-Iran peace talks help ease fears of an oil-driven inflation shock. Concurrently, the artificial intelligence sector caught a bid after President Trump softened his regulatory stance on Anthropic<\/strong>, allowing the AI rally to press on as SK Hynix overtakes Samsung.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With geopolitical and tech headwinds fading, traders are pivoting their focus entirely to this week’s crucial economic growth and business activity data<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brace for this week’s three key economic events:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udc49<\/strong><\/strong> EUR Flash PMI – 10:00, Tuesday (CEST)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early Eurozone business reads, with services forecast to improve slightly to 48.6 (prev. 47.7) and manufacturing expected to be unchanged. Persistent weakness will directly pressure EUR pairs and fuel dovish central bank bets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udc49<\/strong><\/strong> US Flash PMI – 15:45, Tuesday (CEST)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The premier economic event of the early week. Services are forecast at 51.0 (prev. 50.7) alongside a slight dip in manufacturing to 54.6 (prev. 55.1). Surprises will drive immediate US dollar volatility and dictate near-term risk sentiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udc49<\/strong><\/strong> US GDP – 14:30, Thursday (CEST)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The definitive measure of broader US economic health. Quarter-over-quarter growth is expected to remain unchanged. Any deviations from the consensus will aggressively reprice Federal Reserve rate expectations and trigger cross-asset flows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
