Economic calendar June 15-21, 2020 (London time)

The article highlights the most important indicators and events of the economic calendar from the United States, the European Union and the UK, as they are most likely to affect the movement of the EUR/USD and GBP/USD currency pairs.

Monday

The economic calendar Monday (June 15) does not contain important news and indicators. Nevertheless, among the statistics published on this day, one can take note of the eurozone trade balance (9:00) and the Treasury International Capital (TIC) (20:00) report from the US Treasury. The flows of TIC long-term securities can have their influence in resolving the trade deficit by the US government, therefore, in the news economic background, they are usually closely monitored by investors.
