Poland to see complete dataset for 2024

The release calendar is quite empty this week. More important data will be published only in Poland, as industrial output and retail sales growth in December are scheduled. That will give a pretty complete and accurate picture of economic development in Poland in the whole of 2024. Other than that, we will see some labor market data: December’s unemployment rate in Slovakia, Croatia and Hungary, as well as wage growth in Croatia, Poland and Serbia. Finally, December’s producer prices will be released in Slovenia and Poland. On Friday after the market closes, we expect S&P to change Romania’s outlook to negative, keeping the rating unchanged until more clarity is received on the fiscal consolidation front.
