Economic Calendar – ECB minutes, US jobless claims and PepsiCo earnings in focus

Today’s macroeconomic calendar could drive volatility primarily in EUR/USD, government bonds, and natural gas . Investors will focus on Germany’s trade data, the ECB Meeting Minutes , and the weekly U.S. labor market report. Later in the day, attention will shift to U.S. existing home sales, the EIA natural gas storage report , speeches from Fed and Bank of England officials, while PepsiCo (PEP.US) will unofficially kick off the U.S. earnings season.

EUR/USD and PepsiCo (D1 chart)

EUR/USD is trading below both the 200-day and 50-day exponential moving averages (EMA200 and EMA50, shown by the red and orange ribbons) , indicating that the broader downtrend remains intact. Source: xStation 5 PepsiCo shares have fallen nearly 20% from their recent highs and are currently trading about USD 5 below the EMA200 . A strong earnings report could lift the stock back above this key technical level and support a trend reversal. Key support is currently located around USD 130–132 per share , where the stock previously found buying interest, while the major resistance lies in the USD 147–150 range. A decisive breakout above that resistance could open the way for a move toward USD 170 per share .
