Buenos Aires Herald 
After the uncertainty created by United States President Donald Trump’s latest tariffs, which set investors’ alarm bells ringing because of their unpredictable effects, all eyes are on U.S. inflation, which could tick down to 2.5%. That consumer price index (CPI) figure will be key to the Federal Reserve’s next steps.
Important figures are due from Europe, too: we’ll hear the Eurozone’s February retail sales, as well as Germany and Spain’s CPI data. Markets will also pay close attention to the minutes from the Fed’s latest meeting, in search of signals about the future of monetary policy.
It’s also the beginning of first-quarter results season in the U.S.
Within Argentina, we’ll learn the latest Market Expectation Survey results, as well as March inflation.
Monday

In a context of foreign exchange tension, it remains to be seen how the inflation and dollar figures will shift for this month and further ahead.
