Beyond the CPI in the United States, which in June stood at 3% year-on-year, Robles points out that investors are waiting for new stimuli in China, since the Asian giant continues to show signs of weakness.

The XTB analyst points out that next week will continue to be dominated by economic data, business results and speculation about the next moves by central banks. The most outstanding macroeconomic references are China's GDP, the CPI in the euro area and in China, and new employment data in the US.
