Wednesday preview: Services PMIs, US ADP jobs report in focus

(Sharecast News) - All eyes in the middle of the week will be on the release of a raft of purchasing managers' surveys covering services sector activity in the world's main economies. Consultancy S&P Global's services Purchasing Managers' Index for the UK is due out at 0930 BST and a rival PMI for the euro area at 0900 BST.

The Institute for Supply Management meanwhile will release its own PMI, for the US this time, at 1500 BST.

Also on the economic agenda for Wednesday is a speech by Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey at 0900 BST.

He will be followed at 1330 BST by his opposite number at the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde.

A report on US private sector payroll growth for December from consultancy ADP may also prove to be one of the session's key talking points.
