The Sydney Morning Herald >> Flood of leading indicators arrive this week
The ANZ job ads, National Australia Bank's business confidence and conditions, and the Westpac-Melbourne Institute consumer sentiment index come in early this week.
The business and consumer confidence figures will be watched for signs that a wave of approval following Malcolm Turnbull's appointment in September as Prime Minister was more than just a honeymoon period. Westpac-MI's consumer sentiment index in particular read 101.7, a near two-year high, last month. A number over 100 signals that optimists outweigh pessimists.
Wall Street Journal >> Key Canada Events: Week of December 7 to 11
Highlights on this week’s Canadian events calendar include a speech by Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz, the latest read on the country’s housing market and earnings from a few big retailers.
Stephen Poloz, governor of Canada’s central bank, is scheduled to deliver a speech in Toronto on Tuesday. The topic of his speech, after which Mr. Poloz will take questions, is entitled “The Evolution of Unconventional Monetary Policy.” The governor’s appearance comes less than a week after the central bank held its key interest rate steady at 0.5% and said Canada’s economy faces a “complex and lengthy” transition amid lower commodity prices.
Also on Tuesday, Canada’s main housing agency – Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. -- will release housing starts for November. National Bank said it expects a softening in starts to around 195,000, based on declining building-permit applications. Building permits unexpectedly declined in September -- the latest reading -- on weaker demand to construct condominium units and single-detached homes. Housing starts in October fell 14.4% to an annual rate of 198,065.
