Fundamental view
Australia
At 1:30 GMT on Monday the National Australia Bank (NAB) is expected to announce the results from its survey on business confidence in Australia during April. The corresponding gauge came in at a reading of 4 in March. Business conditions in the country, assessed by respondents in the survey, provide an indication of overall economic activity in a short term. In case business confidence improved more than anticipated, this would have a bullish effect on Australian dollar.
Switzerland
Annualized retail sales in Switzerland probably rose at a pace of 2.3% in March, according to the median estimate by experts, following another 1.0% climb in February. This indicator reflects the change in the total value of inflation-adjusted sales by retailers in the country and provides key information regarding consumer spending trend, while the latter is a major driving force behind economic growth. In case retail sales increased at a faster than expected pace, this would provide support to the franc. The Federal Statistical Office is expected to release the official report at 7:15 GMT on Monday.
