Monday brings a new month, a new quarter and the second half of the year, however it’s likely to be a quiet start being Thanksgiving day on Tuesday.

| IG's Week Ahead: US, Japan and eurozone rate decisions | 11 Jun 2023 | 00:05:05 | |
In another week where there is a predominance of economic data, three rate decisions rise above all else. On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve (Fed) is expected to pause with a view to coming back again at the end of July with another 25-basis point hike, while the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to take rates up a further quarter point with another expected increase in July. Meanwhile the Bank of Japan, scarred by years of deflation, may be reluctant to raise rates his time around for fear of stubbing out nascent growth across the economy. Wherever the action is it will likely be the foreign exchange markets that will best respond to any shift.

| Looking at shorting Brent down to $55 | 06 Jun 2023 | 00:10:04 | |
Who would have thought this time last year, with Brent above $120 a barrel, it would now be languishing at $75? BCA Research, which published a paper last year predicting $55 Brent, says there is still more downside. Chief strategist Dhaval Joshi says the markets have miscalculated both demand and supply. On the demand side, there’s been little or no recognition of how bad the downturn would be, and supply has been underestimated with Russia willing and able to sell cheap oil to fund its war in Ukraine.
