Econ Calendar

A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.

Highlights: Econ reports were squeezed into the remaining sessions of this holiday-shortened week. But not Friday, which often seems reserved for monthly payrolls. In any case, the report being announced simultaneously has no track record for influencing price action.

A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.

Highlights: The holiday-shortened week has both Challenger and ADP reporting the same day, along with Jobless Claims. And that’s only the first two reports. Divergences among them, or confirming an outlier, would likely shake things up. And any reaction to a pre-open report would likely be duplicated by a post-open report.

A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.

Highlights: The holiday-shortened week continues to make the econ calendar a little more dense, but not much more influential. Any noticeable reaction to the pre-open Fed speaker is likely to be duplicated by the post-open PMI. Don’t forget that PMI is released privately to its institutional subscribers several minutes before the public gets it. And reaction to both is usually similar. The afternoon’s Beige Book is influential, too — and often inhibits price action just before its release.

A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.

Highlights: This week’s calendar will seem packed, because of some reports being rescheduled during the holiday-shortened week. So, Tuesday is busy, but with only report that has a track record for influencing price action. It’s likely to duplicate any reaction to either pre-open report.
