A muted start to the week in Asia with Chinese data too mixed to provide much momentum as political uncertainty in Europe lurks in the background. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) kept its one-year rate unchanged, dashing some speculation of a cut following surprisingly soft bank lending data. China's official Financial News on Monday reported there was still room to lower rates, but there were internal and external constraints on policy.
The monthly Chinese 'data dump' kicks off the global trading week on Monday, with the slew of top-tier indicators likely to give investors a measure of how much the world's second largest economy is struggling to gain momentum.
