Week ahead: Chinese data, SPD vote in focus
Over the coming week, the market spotlight will be on a barrage of Chinese economic data and a key vote by delegates from Germany's Socialist party on whether to move ahead with formal negotiations to forge a grand coalition with Chancellor Angela Merkel's CDU.
A reading on the rate of growth in China's gross domestic product during the fourth quarter is set for release on Thursday, alongside readings on retail sales and industrial production for December.
Back in the UK, reports on consumer level inflation and retail sales for December will have to compete with the ongoing news-flow around Brexit, which as the Bank of England has long pointed out is the main risk factor on the horizon for the entire economy.
In the Eurozone, the SPD vote at the special convention scheduled for 21 January easily dwarfs in importance all other events and reports on the calendar for next week.
Over in the States, the main data release will be the Federal Reserve bank of Philadelphia's manufacturing sector gauge for January, on Thursday.
Elsewehere, on Wednesday the Bank of Canada is expected to hike its main policy interest rate by 25 basis points to 1.25%.
