Market movers ahead

Indicators have pointed in different directions ahead of the US jobs report for April, so there will be interest in how it turns out.

Retail sales are expected to reveal strong euro area spending growth in Q1.

Labour are weak favourites to form a government after the UK election.

Chinese trade data are expected by us to show a rebound in export growth and allay fears of an export crisis.

The Norwegian economy has weakened, but not far enough in our view for Norges Bank to cut rates at its meeting during the week.

Global macro and market themes

Corrections in stocks, bonds and the USD as investors move back to base.

Strong rise in bond yields but it's not a new trend.

US Q1 growth weak but we expect recovery in Q2.

USD: risk of more correction short term but EUR/USD to go lower when the data improves.

Euro consumer data points to some softening in the short term.
