In this episode of Market Insights, Gary Thomson unpacks the strategic implications of the week’s most critical events driving global markets.

👉 Key topics covered in this episode:

  • Canada’s Inflation Rate

Canada’s inflation data is coming on 21 October — and it could shape the Bank of Canada’s next move on rates. After stronger jobs numbers earlier this month, will the BoC stay cautious or continue cutting?

  • UK Inflation Rate

The UK’s September inflation data is due on 22 October — the last before the Bank of England’s November rate decision. With inflation stuck at 3.8% and the pound under pressure, will this report bring any surprises for sterling?

  • UK Retail Sales

UK retail sales data arrives on 24 October, wrapping up a busy week for markets. With recent figures showing mixed signals and pressure on the pound, will this release shift sentiment for sterling?

  • US Inflation Rate

With the delayed US inflation report now due on 24 October — just days before the Fed’s rate decision — traders are on edge. Could a stronger-than-expected reading shake confidence in the next rate cut?

  • Corporate Earnings Reports

A busy week lies ahead for corporate earnings, with major names like Tesla, Netflix, and Coca-Cola in focus. Could these results set the tone for broader market sentiment as October draws to a close?
