Greetings one and all

Awful news about the bomb in Bangkok and our sympathies go out to all who have suffered

Data wise today the highlight is the latest UK inflation reading out at 08.30 GMT and I'll be posting a few thoughts on that in due course

US building permits/housing starts at 12.30 GMT will give us the latest insight on that sector

For NZD traders a heads-up that we have a Global Dairy Trade auction today . Meeting starts at 12.00 GMT. Result normally out around 14.00 GMT

As always I wish you a good session

Times GMT
