  • Inflation Rate in Canada
    Canada’s inflation data on 20th May is key before the Bank of Canada’s June decision. Inflation may drop to 1.5%, but US tariffs could push prices up.
  • Inflation Rate in the UK
    UK inflation data on 21st May may influence the Bank of England’s rate decisions. Will April’s figures show easing inflation and lead to more rate cuts or a pause?
