In the next week!

In the coming days the situation in the financial markets will remain affected by a series of negative news and forecasts concerning global economy. For us, particular concern are the signals coming from Germany, which is our main trading partner. Furthermore, both the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund reduced in recent days their predictions about the pace of economic growth, and their implementation will certainly have an impact on the situation in our country.

In terms of the outlook for the future will be interpreted all incoming information in the coming days. Most of them will apply to inflation, which confirms the low level of concern about the slowdown. Information on this subject will flow from most major European countries and China. On Wednesday we’ll find out how much lowered price index of consumer goods and services in Poland. After a decline by 0.2 and 0.3 percent. in the previous months, it is expected to accelerate in September to 0.4 percent.

would also be relevant information on the foreign trade of China and the euro zone. The deterioration in this area will have a big impact on the markets, especially the prices of raw materials. On Tuesday, investors will anxiously wait for the data on industrial production in the euro zone and the spirits of the German financial investors.

The last two days of the week will bring further news of the Polish economy. Will focus on increasing employment and wages in the enterprise sector and industrial and construction-assembly. The condition of the labor market is still pretty good and you can expect from optimism publications on this subject. It is expected a slight acceleration in the case of employment growth to 0.8 per cent. and an increase in the average salary of 3.55 per cent., or the like, as in previous months. It is also expected that in September by 2.4 percent. increased industrial production, which surprised a month earlier decline of 1.9 percent.

The biggest impact on the financial markets will be Wednesday’s publication of the Beige Book, a periodic Fed report on the state of and prospects for the American economy. This time, the interpretation of the reading will be particularly difficult, because it is very desirable on the one hand optimism assessments and forecasts can simultaneously amplify concerns about the faster than expected rise in interest rates. These concerns may, however, be smaller, because the Fed recently drew attention to the risks to growth, resulting from the strengthening of the dollar. It may be a new, important factor delaying the decision to increase, just as pessimistic forecasts for the global economy.
