Production figures from the industry are reported in America and minutes from the Federal Reserve are scheduled. On Thursday weekly support requests in the US and for Friday consumer confidence in the eurozone are scheduled.

The threat of a Russian invasion of Ukraine has impact on the capital markets. Oil prices are reacting sharply to the Russian threat. Some oil analysts point out that the threat of an invasion alone has already achieved Putin’s target of induced impact on oil and gas prices. About sixty percent of the Russian state budget comes from oil and gas imports. An actual invasion could push the oil price towards $100 or even higher, according to analysts.
