Market movers today
The data calendar is fairly thin this week, with the PMI releases in the euro area and the US as the most noteworthy global data releases. The main focus will instead be on political developments in the UK and France in the aftermath of the parliamentary elections in the two countries on 8 June and yesterday, respectively.
Furthermore, in the UK, Brexit negotiations are bound to begin. We have written intensively about the UK political situation since the election, for more see Research UK: May stats (for now) due to Brexit uncertainties , Research UK: Minority government is weak from the beginning and Research UK: Hung parliament adds government risk premium to GBP .
