The market still worries about the inflation rise and the possibility of stricter policies, while FED still emphasizes that they will keep their accommodative policies. However, we have to wait and see the GDP numbers from Germany and United States to ensure what is going on in the recovery path. Let's get to the details and see what we are waiting for in the week ahead.

Germany's Gross Domestic Product and IFO. - Tuesday

Tuesday ahead of anything else, we have to closely follow the GDP numbers of the Euro Zone's biggest economy. We are not expecting any changes in the 1.7% decrease of primer number for the first quarter and 3.3% contraction yearly base. Even if it is less harmful than earlier expectations, it is still negative and tells us that Germany is still experiencing an economic recession. Besides that, The Business Sentiment Index numbers also must be closely watched as this important indicator will show the current conditions and business expectations in Germany.

Since the recovery in the Euro Zone is lower than expected, and increasing inflation is supposed to make some changes in the FED policy, we are hoping to see the weaker Euro against the USD, which means return in the EURUSD chart.

New Zealand and RBNZ meeting - Wednesday

New Zealand was one of the leading countries in virus elimination that helped them in their economic recovery. We expect to see them join Norway and Canada, beginning to plan rate rises. While we are not expecting any changes at the 0.25% interest rate, and the markets' pricing rate rises since 2022. Reserve Bank of New Zealand probably may not go so far as just speaking about the possible tapering of bond purchasing and interest rate raising timetable.

As we can see in the chart, Kiwi was under pressure last week, and we are expecting to see a weaker currency in New Zealand, if the central bank's policy will hold the pressure on it, significantly if the pairing can breach under the 0.70 level.

U.S. GDP numbers – Thursday

As every Thursday, jobless claims data will be essential to see how weekly improve in the labor market are going on. However, this week, the final numbers of first-quarter data for gross domestic products also get investors' attention. We are expecting to see a 6.7% improvement, more extensive than the initial 6.4% estimates. These data show the impact of vaccine distributions and two rounds of fiscal stimulus during the first quarter. Upbeat data, besides higher inflation, will be the end to support the fan of stricter policies as well as the U.S. dollar. Even though if technically USD index moves in a clear downtrend, upbeat data expected to support the greenback, especially if the index can turn back above the 91.00 level.

Personal income and spending data – Friday

After all, the critical data to watch in the coming week is Friday's U.S. personal income and spending data, which includes the (PCE) index. The Fed's preferred inflation measure for its 2% flexible average target is the core PCE number, excluding food and energy data. In the last 12 months till March, this number raised to 1.8%. The importance of this data is because FED will be tested seriously whether they keep the same asset purchases level or we have to wait for the return in its policy. Since higher than expected data increases the likelihood of a change in Fed policies, and in this case, we have to wait for a sharp fall in the SP500 index. And weaker data suppose to push the stock markets to reach higher numbers.
