There were no major data releases from Eurozone yesterday. The European Union's ethics watchdog has opened an inquiry into the participation of European Central Bank President Mario Draghi and senior ECB officials in the work of an exclusive group that includes bankers and fund managers. The European Ombudsman's probe relates to ties between ECB officials and the Group of Thirty, a private organization where policymakers, economists, bankers and fund managers meet behind closed doors to discuss economic and monetary affairs.

Ties between the ECB and financial sector firms have been in the spotlight since 2015, when a top official discussed the bank's money-printing plans at a private event with hedge funds. The new inquiry was triggered by a complaint by activist group Corporate Europe Observatory, which says proximity between ECB officials and the G30 is incompatible with Frankfurt's role as the euro zone's top banking watchdog. Members of the G30 include several former and current central bankers, including Bank of England governor Mark Carney and the Bank of Japan's Haruhiko Kuroda, as well as Nobel prize winner Paul Krugman.

 

Tomorrow, from Eurozone French and German Services and Manufacturing PMI figures will be published. Analysts do not expect any significant change. In the US session Existing Home Sales figures will be released. Decline to 5.54 million is anticipated.

 

Figures to watch:

 

French Flash Manufacturing PMI/French Flash Services PMI (Tuesday 9:00)

German Flash Manufacturing PMI/German Flash Services PMI (Tuesday 9:30)

Existing Home Sales (Tuesday 16:00)
