There is nothing surprising in the fact that the market actually stands still. Not only was the macroeconomic calendar completely empty on Friday, but a preliminary estimate of inflation in the euro area will be released today. Basically, everything else doesn't matter. So even if any other data were published, no one would pay attention to them anyway. After all, the question of the succeeding pace of raising the refinancing rate of the European Central Bank is on the agenda. If the forecasts are confirmed, and the growth rate of consumer prices accelerates from 9.9% to 10.4%, then there will be no doubt that the ECB will again raise the refinancing rate by 75 basis points during its December meeting. Whereas, in general, there is no doubt that at the same time the Federal Reserve would only raise its refinancing rate by 50 basis points. In other words, a further increase in inflation in Europe will provoke the euro's growth, and it will pull the pound along with it, which will also noticeably strengthen its positions.
