The upcoming week is poised to be significant for the global economy, with a focus on inflation data, central bank policy meetings, and the beginning of the earnings season. Notably, the U.S. will release its March Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, expected to show a 0.3% month-over-month increase and a 3.5% year-over-year increase, and the Producer Price Index (PPI) reports, which are keenly awaited by investors for insights into inflation trends. Central bank meetings, including those of the European Central Bank (ECB), the Bank of Canada (BoC), and others, will also take place, potentially affecting monetary policies. Additionally, major banks such as JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup are scheduled to report their earnings, marking the start of the earnings season. This convergence of events has led to expectations of increased market volatility, with the Volatility Index (VIX) experiencing a 23% spike. The outcomes of these events could influence the Federal Reserve's stance on interest rate cuts, amid ongoing inflation concerns and recent data suggesting economic re-acceleration.
