Europe briefly stepped into the political spotlight this week, as governments in both France and the Netherlands confronted unexpected no-confidence votes. Dutch Prime Minster Dick Schoof survived his challenge, while in France, the current centrist government is expected to fall in the coming weeks amid mounting pressure from both left- and right-wing opposition parties. Meanwhile, in the United States, Donald Trump continued his efforts to assert influence over the Federal Reserve. The court case over the firing of Fed Governor Lisa Cook began on Friday, as Trump petitioned to fire her immediately following allegations which her lawyers have labelled a “clerical error”.
Markets remained resilient, with the S&P 500 reaching a new all-time high on Thursday. This came despite Nvidia – which makes up nearly 8% of the index – releasing a lacklustre growth forecast on Wednesday night. Inflation remained in focus on the data front, as the core personal consumption expenditures index accelerated at its fastest rate since February. In Japan, economic indicators were mixed: inflation and output slowed, while unemployment fell.
This week, a slew of labour market data will be in focus in the US ahead of the Federal Reserve’s next meeting on September 17th. Figures relating to job openings and layoffs are due to be released on Wednesday, followed by unemployment and non-farm payrolls prints on Friday. Eurozone inflation and unemployment data will also be published during the week, along with Purchasing Managers’ Index surveys in the US, Europe, and China.
