Economic calendar: Outdated PCE can still move the markets? (09.04.2026)


Today’s economic calendar will focus on US data – in particular the secondary, but still relevant for assessing economic conditions, NFIB small business sentiment index, as well as the PPI data release scheduled for the afternoon. In addition, investors will pay close attention to comments from central bankers from both the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank. Their remarks may provide further insight into the balance of risks between inflation and economic activity.
