Source Fxstreet
Paul Donovan at UBS points out that US initial jobless claims may draw attention in a quiet data calendar, alongside upcoming Housing data.
Jobless claims and wage-price risks
"US initial jobless claims data may get some attention in an otherwise relatively quiet data calendar."
"US policy-makers would have to be concerned if there were evidence of a really tight labor market, creating a wage-price spiral."
"However, in spite of repeated inflation shocks, that has not emerged."
"Housing data is also due."
