Weekly Economic & Political Timeline – Sunday, June 4


There are again relatively few high-impact news items scheduled this week, compared to last week. However, very important central bank input is due from the European Central Bank, as well as from the Reserve Bank of Australia. A General Election will be held in Britain on Thursday and as results come in at the end of the day, there will probably be some turbulence in the British Pound which could spill over into other markets.

The market will probably be most active on Thursday and Friday.

Monday is a public holiday in Germany, France, Switzerland and New Zealand.
