The new week will start with markets potentially reacting to selloffs late Friday on reports that ratings agency Standard & Poor's Corp. is planning an imminent downgrade of euro-zone countries' debt.If the cut materializes between Friday's market close and Monday's open, regional markets will certainly track major European markets. Though if no cut takes place there may be some quick buying early Monday to take advantage of the drops in prices from Friday, traders said.
In Prague, Czech producer price inflation data for December should show a slowdown to 4.7% annually from 5.6% in November, reflecting weakening demand for exports and a broader economic slowdown, analysts said.
In Budapest, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban will be watched for any comments on the country's progress in seeking a credit line from the International Monetary Fund.
Orban will be speaking at the Rural Development Ministry.
Euro-Zone Ratings Fate To Set Tone
Czech December PPI Slows As Expected
Czech annual producer price growth eased largely as expected in December from November on a minor slowdown in most categories, the Czech Statistics Office said Monday.
The producer price index rose 4.6% on the year in December following a 5.6% annual rise in November. That was slightly below the market expectation of a 4.7% annual rise, according to a Dow Jones Newswires poll of six analysts.
On a monthly basis, prices rose 0.1% in December compared with a 0.4% monthly rise in November.
For all of 2011, producer price growth accelerated to 5.6% on the year compared with the 1.2% annual rise for 2010.

EUR/USD 29 July 2011
EUR/USD closed higher on Friday as it extends this summer's trading range. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Monday. Stochastics and the RSI are neutral to bullish signalling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. From a broad perspective, it needs to close above or below the aforementioned trading range and point the direction of the next trending move

This PhotoVoice project fits in well with my RCAH career. My studies in the
college focus on international issues and the quintessential RCAH keyword
"transculturation." I was constantly paying attention to the barriers between
the delegates and us and how well we were overcoming them.

EUR/USD 28 March 2011
EUR/USD closed higher due to short covering on Wednesday and above the 20-day moving average crossing as it consolidated some of the decline off July's high. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Thursday. Stochastics and the RSI remain bearish signalling that additional weakness is possible near-term. If it renews the rally off July's low, July's high crossing is the next upside target.
