Coming Up – Norges Bank to Hike Rates & June Flash PMIs

Stockholm (Ekonamik) – Next week will be dominated by a rush of central bank meetings in Norway, Brazil, the UK, Japan and Indonesia. Norges Bank is expected to deliver a rate hike and a positive outlook for Norway, according to Kari Due-Andresen, Chief Economist for Norway at Handelsbanken Capital Markets and Marlene Skjellet Granerud, Acting Head of Macro Research Norway at Swedbank Research.  Banco Central do Brasil is expected to hold rates constant, according to Mario Mesquita, Chief Economist at Brazilian bank Itau. We do not expect any changes in the UK or Japan either.

In data, inflation and composite PMI figures will also be published for the Eurozone. Finally, the week will conclude with politics as the European Council will meet to discuss the new leadership of the ECB and the European Commission.
