New Opinion Poll Shows ANO Continues To Lead By Wide Margin

CZECHIA
  • Czech front pages are dominated by reports surrounding the outcome of parliamentary elections in neighbouring Slovakia, where former Prime Minister Robert Fico emerged as a front-runner to form the next administration, defying initial indications of exit polls. In Czechia, the latest STEM opinion poll showed that should an election be held today, the main opposition ANO party would win with 30.8% of the vote, while three coalition parties (TOP 09, STAN and KDU-CSL) would have to fight to make it past the 5% electoral threshold.
  • S&P Global will publish Czechia's Manufacturing PMI for September at 08:30BST/09:30CEST. The index may have dropped to 42.5 from 42.9 in August, according to a Bloomberg poll.
  • Around the same time (08:30BST/09:30CEST) the CNB will host an economic forum, with Deputy Governors Eva Zamrazilova and Jan Frait due to speak. Note that they are prohibited from discussing their personal opinions on monetary policy until the release of the minutes of last week's meeting on Friday.
  • Later in the day (13:00BST/14:00CEST), Czechia will report its budget balance for the month of September. The figure is drawing much scrutiny amid the government's efforts to consolidate public finances.
