Money News Overview Tuesday 26th March: A quiet day for the UK and EU as focus switches to US data

Today’s focus is on a mix of key US economic data, set to influence market movements.

It is a quiet day today in terms of data for both the UK and the EU.

Later this afternoon, we have the Durable Goods, Home Price Index and Conference Board Consumer Confidence Survey for the US.

The US data will be closely watched & will provide clues on activity in the factory sector.

US factory data of late has shown that the most cyclical parts of manufacturing have continued to signal that output is still falling.

On Wednesday, focus will switch to the EU Business & Consumer Confidence data, before attention then returns to the UK.

This Thursday, UK growth figures will be closely watched as will the US growth figures later in the day.

To cap off the week, we have the French CPI and US personal income data.
