EURUSD is at 1.0510 and GBPUSD 1.2550. it is a holiday in the UK due to May day being Sunday.
This week will be extremely busy with economic data and earnings. So far the earnings season has been strong on paper with 80% of companies beating expectations but the fact that heavyweights such as Amazon miss are pulling the market lower. Uncertain outlooks such as the one by apple add to the worries.
This weeks highlights ill be Blackrock today,

Thursday: Shopify
In terms of economic Data, the highlights will be FOMC decision on Wednesday, the Bank of England on Thursday and the Nonfarm Payroll on Friday, Today we had the German retail sales at 8 lower than expected, PMIs and EU Economic sentiment.
From a technical point of view by our Kim Cramer, all major indexes are down trends on short, medium term and longer term i.e. on Daily, Weekly and Monthly basis, the S&P 500 closed below key support at 4,164. Down trend confirmed. No strong support before around 3,815. Minor support around 4,056, the Dax is in a short term down trend. A daily close below 13, 566 will lead to test of March low at 12,438.
Besides earnings and the economic data mentioned, the situation in China remains worrying where the corona measures are not being eased and will likely cause supply chain issues. The War in Ukraine and sanctions will continue to be in the spotlight.
Trade safely and consider optionality for any sizeable positions.
