Week ahead: US non-farm payrolls, Global factory PMIs in focus

Financial markets' focus over the coming week will be squarely on the release, on Friday, of the US non-farm payrolls report for June.

Consensus is for non-farm payroll growth to pick up from May's pace of 559,00 to 600,000 in June.

The US rate of unemployment meanwhile is seen falling from 5.8% to 5.7%.

Also in the spotlight will be a raft of manufacturing sector surveys in the euro area, UK and US, on Thursday.

The Bank of Japan's quarterly Tankan business confidence index is also due out on that same day.

Another key release will come on Wednesday, in the form of survey compiler Caixin's closely-followed Purchasing Managers' Index for June.

Investors will also be keeping an eye out for German unemployment and retail sales figures, on Thursday and Friday, respectively.

On home shores, on Tuesday Nationwide will release its home price index for June and the Office for National Statistics money supply data for May.
