Week Ahead – Nordea (pdf)
US: With Fed policy moves completely data-dependent, the employment reports released next week will obviously be very important for markets. We expect payrolls to increase by 150k and the unemployment rate to slip to 7.5% after printing at 7.6% in May. Euro Area: On Thursday, ECB will announce its decision on rates followed by Draghi’s press conference. During the last ECB meeting in early June, Draghi reiterated that the bank is monitoring incoming data very closely and stand’s ready to act. Following the June announcement, data has been improving somewhat, which should make the bank stay on hold.

Weekly Focus: Time to calm down – Danske Bank (pdf)
Draghi is unlikely to open up for further easing in connection with the ECB meeting but he will probably attempt some verbal intervention by underscoring that monetary policy will stay accommodative in the distant future. In the US we expect a decent 180K gain in non-farm payrolls and a rebound in ISM manufacturing, suggesting that the soft patch has indeed been soft and is now possibly coming to an end. In China we expect a gradual decline in money market rates and possibly a more proactive PBoC to contribute to stabilisation in financial markets but economic data is expected to remain weak.

Strategy: Capitulation paves way for consolidation in risk assets – Danske Bank (pdf)
We have seen lots of capitulation recently in financial markets leading to decline in risk assets and higher bond yields.

EU Week Ahead: July 1-5 – WSJ
In a week in which there are likely to be further reverberations over reports that the U.S. spied on EU institutions, much of the action takes place out of Brussels. It starts with the celebrations to mark Croatia’s accession, through some important parliamentary sessions in Strasbourg, Chancellor Angela Merkel‘s pre-election jobs summit in Berlin and the EU commissioners trip to Vilnius to mark the start of Lithuania’s presidency.

Agenda: US bugging allegations in spotlight – euobserver
Fallout from allegations that US security services bugged EU officials and buildings is expected to be uppermost in lawmakers' minds this week.
