The Week Ahead

No earnings or company-specific events are scheduled next week, leaving macro data as the main driver of risk appetite. Tuesday brings the NFIB small business optimism index, with a prior reading of 99.8. Thursday is dense: initial jobless claims, final demand PPI, existing home sales at an annualised rate and the 10-year Treasury auction. These releases will test the US growth and rate narrative and may spill over into small- and mid-cap names like TRIP.
