Another tame week ahead

Next week is looking like another slow one when looking at the economic/event calendar. Some of my highlights include BOE Carney on Tuesday (after the Financial Stability Report). The markets are still struggling with BOE policy going forward. This week Carney - in his delayed Mansion speech - was a bit more dovish.

Other releases of note will be German CPI flash estimate on Thursday and the EU CPI flash on Friday.
