Will China be able to make the economic improvements required? | Morning Markets

As we look to the week ahead, Jeff Casson, Chief Investment Officer, discusses China’s senior leadership meeting at a time where economic improvement is required, with shortfalls in retail and most notably property investment. In the Eurozone, we have several data releases this week but no expectations for any policy changes. In the UK, the Bank of England have key considerations on employment, retail activity and a  focus on services inflation - which has remained stickier than many expected. In the US, the key message from the Federal Reserve is a reluctance to reduce policy restraint too soon so as not to unduly weaken economic activity and employment.
