First to begin with UK will release their Public Sector Net Borrowing which captures an amount of new debt held by the U.K. governments (the financial deficit in the UK national accounts). To conclude the day US Federal reserve releases their FOMC minutes which will be an important cue for Investors which reviews economic and financial conditions, determines the appropriate stance of monetary policy and assesses the risks to its long-run goals of price stability and sustainable economic growth.
