Market volatility is increasing ahead of a crucial week featuring central bank decisions, major company earnings reports, and key economic data.

Traders are positioning for potential Federal Reserve rate cuts, while also considering the possibility of a rate hike from the Bank of Japan. This has led to heightened activity in options markets, particularly for currencies like the yen and euro, as well as in equity and interest rate markets.

The week’s events, including earnings from tech giants and the US jobs report, are expected to significantly impact market movements, with traders adjusting their strategies accordingly.
