Top Markets On Your Watchlist Current Week

Nasdaq 100, Dow Jones, USD, CPI, CAD, Bank Of Canada are the markets to watch this week.

Investor confidence has improved over the previous week, with shares of IT companies leading the charge. On Wall Street, the Nasdaq 100 rose 4.71 percent, but the Dow Jones futures only rose by 0.87 percent.

Shares of IT businesses are leading the improvement in investor confidence over the prior week. 

The Nasdaq 100 increased 4.71 percent on Wall Street, but the Dow Jones futures only increased by 0.87 percent.

The haven-linked US Dollar outperformed its key peers despite the rise in mood. The commodity-linked Australian Dollar exceptionally managed to increase in the last few days of the week as Copper prices rose in line with economic development. 

The Euro underperformed noticeably as markets kept lowering hawkish ECB policy expectations.

Amid worries about the state of the world economy, stock markets initially reduced their expectations for hawkish Federal Reserve policies. At the conclusion of the week, though, this took a different turn.

Another strong non-farm payrolls report from the US pointed to a situation where the central bank needs to continue raising interest rates, which also featured higher-than-expected average hourly earnings.

Following all of this, the anti-fiat yellow metal did not do well, with the price of gold seeing its worst weekly performance in two months. All eyes are currently on the July US inflation report.

The headline CPI is anticipated to rise from 8.6 percent in June to 8.8 percent on Wednesday. Remember that the June reading served as the impetus for the 75-basis point rate increase.

In light of this, traders must use caution. Another strong print, particularly in light of the most recent jobs report, may easily bring back market turbulence. 

Beyond CPI, the Bank of Canada will decide on interest rates the following week, and a 75-basis point increase is predicted. 

The most recent jobs report from Australia will also be something to watch. The second-quarter GDP for China will also be released. What other plans do markets have?
