Daily Market Outlook, June 24, 2024

Asian markets saw a decline overnight as traders prepared for a week of political uncertainty and upcoming inflation data that could impact bets on global interest rates. Japanese currency official Masato Kanda announced that authorities are ready to intervene to support the yen 24/7 if needed, leading to the yen trading below 160 per dollar. This week, financial markets will be driven by the U.S. Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge and a series of speeches by Fed officials as investors look for insights into the future of interest rates. In the U.S., important data releases include consumer confidence on Tuesday, final Q1 GDP, jobless claims, and durable goods on Thursday, followed by the core PCE price index, Chicago PMI, and final June University of Michigan consumer sentiment on Friday. The lineup of Fed speakers includes San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly, Fed Governors Lisa Cook and Michelle Bowman, and Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin. Japan also has a busy schedule with releases such as services PPI and leading indicators, retail sales, Tokyo CPI, jobs, and industrial production. The Bank of Japan's summary of opinions from its June 13-14 policy meeting is due on Monday. In the Eurozone, the focus will be on sentiment indices, final June consumer confidence, and the German Ifo business climate as there are no major data releases scheduled. The UK will only see the release of Q1 GDP data, with attention also on Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey's press conference on the Financial Stability Report. China is set to publish industrial profits on Thursday and official June PMIs on Sunday. It is expected that profits for January to May will slow from the 4.3% growth in January-April as China's economic recovery faces challenges. The manufacturing PMI will be closely watched for any signs of improvement after factory activity contracted in May.
