Hello one and all
Following the Sydney cafe seige we have now seen the absolute horror of the killing of 132 children and 9 staff in a school in Pakistan. Sad times indeed and a reminder that the extreme fragility around the globe is not limited to oil price falls or sanctions. Our thoughts go out to all the families and friends of those killed in yesterday’s massacre.
Data wise today no prizes for guessing the main event later as the FOMC finally answers all those questions being asked of it. Well, just one really. Will they take out ” considerable time” from the statement.
The supporting cast though has UK BOE MPC Minutes and Eurozone CPI amongst the list and we are sure of a busy day ahead
As always I wish you a successful session
