TC Economic Insight - The Week Ahead (June 2-6)

Using Trading Central's "Economic Insight" investors can check out up-coming major economic data.

We are looking into the trading week of June 2-6:

We can select economic data of "High", "Medium" or "Low" importance, or any combination of such filters:

We can select which major economies to focus on:

The annual inflation rate in the U.S. eased to 2.3% in April 2025, the lowest since February 2021, from 2.4% in March.

And the core personal consumption expenditure price inflation rate, the Federal Reserve’s favorite inflation gauge, also slowed to 2.5% year on year in April from 2.7%.

In view of easing inflation, will the Federal Reserve cut interest rates on Wednesday, June 18?

Investors should be hoping that jobs data to be released on the coming Friday (June 6) will be so soft as to let the central bank have one more excuse to cut.

According to Trading Central's "Economic Insight", the growth in Non-Farm Payrolls in the U.S. in June is expected to slow further to 130,000, with the Unemployment Rate remaining stable at 4.2%. 

In the last U.S. Official Jobs Report reported in early May, within one hour from the event, EUR/USD moved in a range of 50.60 pips during the 1 hour following the event, ending 13.5 pips higher.
