đĽ BIG WEEK AHEAD â MARKETS ON HIGH ALERT
This week is packed with important events that could shake global markets. On Monday, European stock markets will react to Trumpâs new 10% tariffs on the EU, while U.S. markets stay closed for MLK Day, creating a quiet start in America but tension in Europe. The real action begins mid-week. đ
On Wednesday, investors will focus on December Pending Home Sales, a key signal for the U.S. housing market. Then comes Thursday, the most critical day: U.S. Q3 2025 GDP data and November PCE inflation numbers will be released. These reports matter a lot because they influence Federal Reserve policy, interest rates, and market direction. Any surprise here could move stocks, bonds, and the dollar fast.
The week ends with Fridayâs January S&P Global PMI data, giving fresh insight into business activity and economic strength. On top of all this, itâs also earnings season â around 10% of S&P 500 companies will report results. That means volatility is coming, and traders should be ready. This could be a calm setup before a big move⌠or the start of a shock-filled market week.
