FUNDAMENTAL OVERVIEW
MAIN MARKET MOVERS
(Wednesday) FOMC Statement + press conference;
(Wednesday) Crude oil inventories;
(Friday) EU + US Manufacturing PMI.

WHAT TO EXPECT?

Powell will not say directly that FED will decrease % rates and FED will be looking for further economic indicators. So traders will became calm and expecting further economic signals – this will be signal for strong corrections;
Oil inventories will continue to increase, as market totally oversupplied and oil price will continue downtrend, if we will not have war expansion in Oman bay;
PMI’s became sideways, so next news will be very important, as if PMI will fall, this will be signal for FED to decrease % rates;

CONCLUSION

US Core CPI still over 2% FED target level, where same time PMI much higher 50 points, unemployment on low level, Friday’s retail sales was good. So US economy have all advantages and going well and for June or, probably, July, no any reason for FED to decrease % rates. And it possible that FED will not need to decrease % rates at all, as US economy will continue to go well.
Same time EU do not have where to decrease % rates and looking on this, US economy now have all advantages over EU, that create potential for downtrend on eur/usd and EU equity market.
