31 May Weekly Economic Commentary

Summer will soon be here, as June 2017 brings with it longer days and

summer vacations in the United States. It is also a month with three major

central bank meetings. So far in 2017, the global equity rally has continued with

new highs in the U.S., Europe, and emerging markets (EM). The global earnings

backdrop is strong as well, supporting the moves to new highs. Not to mention

2017 has been one of the least volatile ever, with only four 1% moves for the

S&P 500 Index in the first 100 trading days of the year. As we turn the page to

June, it is important to stay on top of the most significant upcoming events. To

help, we’ve created this guide to the June 2017 market calendar, providing an

overview of the key events.
