This week blends three big themes. Central banks take center stage in the United States, Brazil, and Canada.
Mexico posts key labor and growth readings. Europe’s flow is heavy on confidence, inflation, and GDP prints.
China closes the week with official PMI readings. Several LatAm rate decisions add regional volatility risk.
Holiday closures in Australia and India shape early-week liquidity.
