LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - All eyes on Wednesday will be on a revised reading for fourth quarter U.S. gross domestic product growth.






The data will be followed by a string of speeches by top Fed officials, starting from 1700 GMT with Atlanta Fed chief Raphael Bostic.

Earlier, at 1000 GMT, the European Commission will release its economic sentiment index for the single currency bloc covering the month of February.

No major economic releases are scheduled in the U.K..

Overnight, rate-setters in New Zealand will meet to decide on policy.

On the corporate side of things, Reckitt Benckiser will post its full-year figures.

The consumer goods producer is expected to announce a 2.0% rise in revenues to reach £14.75bn, for roughly unchanged earnings before tax and interest of about £3.45bn.

UBS analyst Guillaume Delmas estimated that the company's like-for-like sales would be up by 1.8% over the three months to December.

Sales in the Hygiene division were expected to offset weakness in Nutrition.
