Flash: This week's key data releases and events to watch - Nomura

FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Nomura Strategist Matthew Slade presents this week's key data releases and events to watch for.

Key events

1. Fed speakers (Throughout the week) - the ongoing debt ceiling debate remains very fluid; Fed speakers should provide colour on the situation.

2. German factory orders (Tuesday 11:00 BST) – Nomura estimates are ahead of consensus

3. Australian employment (Thursday 01:30 BST) – Nomura estimates are below consensus

4. Bank of England meeting (Thursday 12:00 BST) – Nomura expects no change in policy and no detailed explanatory statement to be published alongside the BoE’s decision
