This week's important schedule overview
Federal Reserve officials are intensively speaking! Federal Reserve Chairman Powell will give a speech on Friday.
On November 7th, Eastern Time, the Federal Reserve FOMC cut interest rates by 25 basis points as expected by the market after the meeting. Powell said at the post-meeting press conference that the fight against inflation is not over yet, core inflation is still somewhat high, and the job market continues to cool very slowly. The Fed will continue to cut interest rates, but if inflation cools down and the economy strengthens, the rate cut can be slower.
In addition, Powell emphasized that he will not resign because of Trump, as the president does not have the legal authority to dismiss him. Although Powell has tried to avoid discussing Trump's election, at some point, Fed policymakers, economists, and analysts will have to consider the ambitious economic agenda that this strong Republican may implement.
On Friday, November 15, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell was invited to participate in a dialogue session titled 'Global Perspectives'. Investors need to closely watch his views on the future trend of U.S. inflation, economic trends, and the Fed's subsequent interest rate path.
In addition, several Federal Reserve officials will also give speeches this week:
On Tuesday at 11:00, 2024 FOMC voter and Richmond Fed President Barkin will speak, and Fed Governor Waller will speak at a banking conference;
On Wednesday at 3:00, 2026 FOMC voter and Philadelphia Fed President Harker will speak on financial technology and artificial intelligence, at 6:30, 2024 FOMC voter and Richmond Fed President Barkin will speak.
On Thursday at 01:30, in 2025, FOMC voting member and St. Louis Fed President Muzalema delivered a speech, at 02:30, 2025 FOMC voting member and Kansas Fed President Schmid delivered a speech.
On Friday at 05:15, FOMC permanent voting member and New York Fed President Williams delivered a speech.
The first data after the November interest rate meeting, the USA will release October CPI and PPI.
The data released last month shows that in September, the USA's CPI increased by 2.4% year-on-year, slightly slowing from the previous value of 2.5%, but exceeding the expected value of 2.3%; September core CPI (excluding volatile food and energy costs) increased by 3.3% year-on-year, slightly exceeding the expected and previous value of 3.2%. USA September PPI was flat compared to the previous month, below the expected value of 0.1%, and below the previous value of 0.2%.
With the cooling of the job market and monetary policy overly tight, the market still expects the Fed to continue cutting interest rates in December. However, due to Trump's presidency potentially bringing stronger economic growth, a business-friendly environment, and inflationary pressures due to trade tariffs, the Fed may 'stand still' starting in January next year.
Analysts believe that if the USA's October CPI data is lower than expected, US bond yields and the USD may come under pressure. And if the CPI data continues to exceed expectations, the USD's upward trend may continue.
Chinese concept stock financial reports bombardment! Tencent, JD.com, Netease, Alibaba, and Bilibili's financial reports come in quick succession.
Wednesday, November 13th, $TENCENT (00700.HK)$ Tencent is scheduled to release its third-quarter report for 2024 after the Hong Kong stock market closes.

It is worth noting that there are some expectations for Tencent in the current market. As of November 7th, northbound funds have been net buyers of Tencent for 10 consecutive days, totaling approximately 3.977 billion Hong Kong dollars.

China will release economic data such as retail sales and social financing for October, with the State Council Information Office holding a press conference on the country's economic operation.
Data released last month shows a 10.1% decrease in China's real estate development investment from January to September, with a 17.1% year-on-year decrease in sales area of new commercial buildings; boosted by the sales of commodities such as automobiles and home appliances, China's retail sales growth rebounded in September.
On Friday, November 15th, the National Bureau of Statistics will release the monthly report on residential sales prices for 70 large and medium-sized cities, while on the same day, the State Council Information Office will hold a press conference on the operation of the national economy. From November 11th to 15th, China will irregularly publish financial data such as social financing and new RMB loans for October.
Zhong Zhengsheng, Chief Economist of Ping An Securities, believes that since October, the recovery trend of the Chinese economy has accelerated, and the effects of incremental policies have been evident. Firstly, the funding for infrastructure and real estate investment has improved for four consecutive weeks, with an increase in physical work volume, providing impetus for the recovery of raw material production. Secondly, policies such as swapping old for new and lowering mortgage rates to promote consumption have helped boost household commodity consumption recovery, also providing support for the production of consumer goods such as textiles and household appliances.
Thirdly, the effects of the new real estate policies have been concentrated and released, with a significant narrowing of the year-on-year decline in sales area for new homes, and a reversal from negative to positive for the year-on-year sales area of second-hand homes. At the same time, the recovery trend of exports has increased, driven by the 'export rush' effect, leading to a faster year-on-year recovery in the volume of goods and containers at Chinese ports.
The Bank of Japan will publish a summary of opinions from the October Monetary Policy Meeting.
Regarding the Japanese Yen, since mid-September, the yen's depreciation has intensified, with the US dollar against the yen soaring to a three-month high of 154.71 after the US election. The main reason for the reversal of the yen's appreciation trend is that the timing of the Bank of Japan's next rate hike remains uncertain.
Investors currently estimate a 40% likelihood of a 25 basis points rate hike by the Bank of Japan in December. However, the central bank may wait until after the annual spring wage negotiations next year to make a decision.
To boost the yen by anticipating an early rate hike by the Bank of Japan, significant improvements are needed in growth and inflation data. Therefore, if Japan's third-quarter GDP data is better than expected, this may slightly boost the yen.
