Daybreak Weekend: Central Bank Decisions, China's Economy, Congress in the New Year

Daybreak Weekend: Central Bank Decisions, China's Economy, Congress in the New Year

Bloomberg Daybreak Weekend with Tom Busby takes a look at some of the stories we'll be tracking in the coming week.

1) In the US - We preview Federal Reserve policy meeting and news conference with Chair Jerome Powell. Economists see the Fed’s policy committee maintaining a benchmark interest rate target of 5.25% to 5.5%, with bond traders leaning toward a cut in the first half of 2024.

2) In the UK - It's a big week ahead for central banks in Europe too - with both the Bank of England and the European Central Bank meeting on Thursday. Market bets on rate cuts from policymakers in London and Frankfurt have been ramping up - but there's more data to come too.

3) In Asia - The Chinese economy has struggled this year in its post-Covid recovery. For months, the optimists have been hoping for signs of a turning point. Might there be a glimmer of improvement in the week ahead?

4) In Washington DC - we look ahead to what we can expect from congress in the new year.
