Main Analysis

September 10 news: ECB Rate Decision and US Producer Prices

The European Central Bank announces its Main Refinancing Rate and Monetary Policy Statement at 8:15pm GMT+8, followed by a press conference at 8:45pm GMT+8, so EUR pairs may see higher market volatility through the session. The United States then releases Core PPI m/m and PPI m/m at 8:30pm GMT+8, an early read on wholesale price pressure that traders may watch ahead of Friday's CPI.

September 11 news: UK GDP and US Consumer Price Index

Weekly economic news update: Sep 11, 2026 GMT+8 high impact GBP and USD events for forex traders

The United Kingdom opens with GDP m/m at 2:00pm GMT+8, which may influence GBP pairs. The week then closes with the US Consumer Price Index at 8:30pm GMT+8, covering Core CPI and headline CPI on both a monthly and yearly basis. The gap between actual and forecast usually moves prices, so USD pairs and gold trading may react sharply.

Key Takeaway

The ECB rate decision on Thursday and the US inflation data on both Thursday and Friday are the moments to watch this week.
