0600 GMT – Germany May industrial production data
Prior release can be found here. A minor data point, but will be put together with factory output/orders data to provide a glimpse of sentiment towards the German economy. So far, things haven’t been going well (hence downward GDP forecast revisions) so let’s see if the softness is continuing.

Prior report can be found here. Not a substantial data point by any means at this point in time.
0700 GMT – Switzerland June foreign currency reserves
Prior release can be found here. More like for-your-info data more than anything else.
0730 GMT – UK June Halifax house price index
Prior release can be found here. A general overview of the UK housing market, not a major data point by any means. For some background, the housing market has been cooling lately led by declines in London.
0800 GMT – Italy May retail sales data
Prior release can be found here. There was a major miss in the April figures so we’ll have to see if sentiment rebounds in May. Either way, a minor data point – provides a general overview of consumption patterns in the Italian economy. – Neal Bhai Reports
