Week Ahead: Global Markets & Economic News (September 12th 2011)
A glance at the economic calendar for the week ahead reveals some of the key economic events and data releases occurring this week. Undoubtedly there will be a lot more attention paid to the more impromptu press conferences and statements by policy makers as the eurozone buck passing continues and Obama tries to push his roughly $477 bn jobs package.
Markets may find some stories to rally on if policy makers come out with some action instead of talk. Talk is cheap in markets. Without a good story to rally on expect more fear and markets to be driven down further. We might even see 4,000 on the ASX 200 to get cracked this week.
