Markets will digest key central-bank decisions this week as the Fed, BoJ and BoE set policy amid energy-driven inflation risks, with rate-hike expectations shifting and investors watching accompanying statements for signals on future moves. At the same time, mega-cap earnings, AI-led chip demand, and regional trade data—from Asia’s exporters to Hong Kong and Taiwan—will help frame risk appetite and currency moves, with the week also featuring major tech names like Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta as earnings season accelerates.
