Today, the news background is calm. At the moment, the majors are in the process of consolidation. Investors expect a number of important macroeconomic data to be published on Wednesday, July 12. There are 3 key events:
- - Report on the labor market in the UK. Most experts expect the main indicators to deteriorate.
- - The Fed's Chairman Yellen's speech before the US Congress. It should be recalled that last week the Bureau of Labor Statistics released a fairly optimistic report on the labor market. Yellen's comments may strengthen expectations regarding another increase in the interest rate this year.
