What are the main events for today?NewsGiuseppe Dellamotta16/09/2026 | 06:30 GMT, published 16/09/2026 at 06:30 AMTagsmarket overviewAdd as a preferredsource on GoogleSummaryThe highlights include US Retail Sales and FOMC rate decisionEUROPEAN SESSIONIn the European session, the main highlight was the UK CPI report. The data came mostly in line with expectations, with a slight miss on Services CPI measure.
For now, the BoE has enough reasons to keep rates steady and maintain a tightening bias given the soft employment data and limited inflation spillover. The market is pricing in around 80% chance of no change in rates at tomorrow's meeting and a total of 45 bps of tigthening by year-end. The market is still betting on rate hikes due to elevated energy prices.
AMERICAN SESSIONIn the American session, we have the US Retail Sales, the BoC meeting minutes and the FOMC rate decision. It goes without saying that the focus is going to be solely on the FOMC decision. The Fed is expected to hike rates by 25 bps, bringing the FFR to 3.
75-4.00%. The focus will be mainly on the dot plot where the median projection is expected to show rates peaking 75 bps higher (two rate hikes in 2026 and one in 2027).
