(Sharecast News) - Investors' attention in the middle of the week will be trained on a slew of survey results covering services sector activity around the world.

Purchasing Managers Indices for China, euro area, UK and US are all expected to reveal steady growth in that sector when compared to the month before.

Also due out in the US, at 1215 BST, is consultancy ADP's private sector payrolls survey for January.

It will be followed a quarter of an hour later by foreign trade figures covering the month of December.

Also scheduled for Wednesday are speeches from at least three top Federal Reserve officials.
