K GDP: Tuesday, 9:30. The UK will now release the monthly GDP figure for January, the first look into 2019. The economy shrank by 0.4% in December, a disappointed that kept Q4 growth depressed. However, the UK economy is still expanding and an increase in monthly GDP is likely now. Manufacturing output is also likely to show a rise after a drop of 0.7% at the end of 2018.

UK votes on Brexit: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. The UK government is set to bring an amended Brexit deal to vote on March 12th, and it is expected to fail once again. It will be then followed by a vote on a no deal Brexit on March 13th, which is expected to result in Parliament rejecting an exit without an accord. The last vote comes on March 15th, when Parliament is due to instruct the government to seek an extension, probably of three months. The expected delay of Brexit sent the pound higher, but it then retreated as nothing is certain. May may announce that she has no new deal to offer. In addition, the House of Commons could also surprise with a vote in favor of leaving without a deal, a move that will likely devastate the pound. It is going to be a dramatic week.

US inflation: Tuesday, 12:30. Inflation in the US was quite steady in January with the headline rising by 1.6% Year over Year and Core CPI remaining at 2.2%, a healthy rate. A minor slide to 2.1% is on the cards in the report for February. Any deviation may impact the Fed’s “patience”.
