Irish Consumer Confidence (Sep) 61.1 (Prev. 63.2) Goldman Sachs (GS) board discussed the plan to name John Waldron as its next CEO, while under the plan, current CEO David Solomon, who has led the bank since 2018, would step down as soon as next year and be executive chair, according to WSJ Russian President Putin orders an increase in the size of the Russian army Irish sentiment prints are a second-tier release with no established record of moving euro-area rates or FX in their own right; their relevance runs through the read on the domestic economy, which is structurally distorted by multinational activity and where household survey data is one of the cleaner gauges of underlying domestic demand. The direction here is a modest step down from the prior month, and single-month moves of this size in a small survey series have historically been noise more often than signal, with the pattern worth watching being whether consecutive prints lean the same way. The usual sequence for this kind of release is that it feeds the ECB-adjacent narrative only in aggregate: persistent softening across periphery and small-economy confidence data has tended to matter for the rate path when it corroborates, rather than contradicts, the larger euro-area sentiment and PMIs that follow in the calendar. The follow-ons are the corresponding eurozone confidence figures and any commentary from Irish fiscal or central bank officials, since a weakening domestic consumer picture has in past episodes shown up first in retail sales and tax receipts rather than in the survey itself. As a standalone input, this is a data point for the European demand mosaic, not a tradeable event.
