There will be a similarly light news schedule this week, compared to last week which was quite light. The only central bank input expected this week is from the U.S.A. with the Chair of the Federal Reserve testifying before the U.S. Congress. Apart from that, the week will most probably be dominated by some significant U.S. economic data releases staggered from Tuesday to Thursday.
The market is likely to be most active on Wednesday and Thursday.

It will be a reasonably busy week for the greenback after a slow start, beginning on Tuesday, with the release of PPI data and testimony from the Chair of the Federal Reserve.

Finally, on Thursday we will have the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index, Unemployment Claims, and Building Permits data.
