Chinese CPI and Japanese GDP highlight the economic calendar

Tokyo and Beijing are just waking up but it will be a lively start to the week for traders in both.

Here is a look at Asia-Pac calendar – in order (all times GMT)

• 22:45 – New Zealand Q1 manufacturing sales

• 23:50 – Japan data dump: May bank lending, Apr current-account balances and the final Q1 GDP print (with the full set of revisions)

• 01:30 – China May CPI & PPI

• 02:00 – China May trade balance (exports / imports in USD and CNY)

• 03:00 – Japan May reserve assets

Australia is closed for the King’s Birthday, so AUD liquidity will be thinner than usual.
