United States
Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey
The number of job openings in the United States probably rose to 4.823 million in October from 4.735 million in the prior month. This indicator refers to all positions that are open, but not filled on the last business day of the month. Job openings are part of the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS), which gathers data from about 16 400 non-farm establishments including retailers and manufacturers, as well as federal, state, and local government entities in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The survey assesses the unmet demand for labor in the labor market. Higher-than-projected number of openings is usually dollar positive. The Bureau of Labor Statistics is to release the official data at 15:00 GMT.
Mexico
Consumer inflation
The annualized consumer inflation in Mexico probably accelerated to 4.35% in November, according to the median forecast by experts, from 4.30% in October, with the latter being the highest level since January, when annual inflation was reported at 4.48%. In October inflation rate was boosted by higher food prices. On annual basis, prices of food and non-alcoholic beverages marked the largest increase, or 6.5%, followed by alcoholic beverages and tobacco (up 6.35%), restaurant and hotels (up 6.31%) and transport costs (up 6.10%). Cost of communications, on the other hand, dropped at an annualized rate of 4.26% in October, according to the report by Mexicos statistics department.
Key categories, included in Mexican Consumer Price Index (CPI), are Non-food Goods (accounting for 19.7% of the total weight), Housing (18.7%) and Other Services (18.4%). Other categories include Food, Beverages and Tobacco (14.8%), Energy (9.5%), Products subsidized by the government (5.3%), Education (5.1%), Meat and Eggs (4.8%) and Fruits and Vegetables (3.7%).
In case the CPI accelerated more than projected, this would have a bullish effect on the peso. Insituto Nacional de Estadistica Y Geografia is expected to release the official report at 14:00 GMT.
