2008 has been a year where rate differentials and rate decisions have influenced strong movements in price action. These week won’t be different if we see any movement by either Central Bank. The market is anticipating that all ECB, BOE and FED will decide to mantain rates unchanged. However comments by ECB and the FED will be determinant into defining where currencies are going.

The week will revolve around the rate decisions by central banks. On Tuesday we get Euro Zone Retail Sales, this will be important to see what euro zone is going to face with its growing problems. We also have the FOMC announcing their rate decision. They will probably keep rates unchanged but will surely be hawkish about attacking inflation, they will also remark that growth problems are still on the radar but they are fading out and as they continue to do that the FED will have some space to tighten credit conditions. Wednesday looks like halftime, it gives us the opportunity to analyze what happened with the FOMC and prepare for what’s coming our way with ECB and BOE. Thursday brings ECB and BOE deciding what to do with their interest rates. Both will keep them unchanged and Trichet will probably state again that Yes they have problems with growth but that he is also very concerned with Inflation. This tells us that rate cuts are not around the corner, but it also tells us that Euro Zone is up for a big challenge and very big problems if they don’t control inflation as they head into growth and credit problems.
