Week commencing 10 June
Chris Beauchamp's insight
The week is dominated by Wednesday’s events, which include China’s inflation reading, and then the key data of US inflation, followed up by the Fed decision. While the FOMC is not expected to change policy, the press conference could shed further light on how the committee expects policy to evolve in the coming months. While the Bank of Japan is also expected to hold rates, its meeting may provide more clues on when the next rate hike may occur. Aside from Tesco’s trading statement in the UK, big corporate events are thin on the ground.

Dividends are applied after the close of the previous day’s session for each market. So, for example, the FTSE 100 goes ex-dividend on a Thursday, but the adjustment is applied at the close of the previous day, e.g. Wednesday. The table below shows the days in which the adjustment is applied, not the ex-dividend days.
