Econ Calendar
Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Fri Apr 5, 2019
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: What used to be common is now unusual, that the Employment Situation report is released in a vacuum with no other econ reports around it. This allows for a greater reaction to the high-profile influential report. Depending on afternoon bias environment action, the late-afternoon Fed speaker could make a big reaction in a thin market.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Apr 4, 2019
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Thursday’s reports are high-profile, but not reliably influential to price action. The pre-open Fed speaker might have an impact, but the afternoon speaker’s influence on price action is likelier. Only briefly, as trending becomes difficult on the afternoon ahead of the monthly Employment Situation report.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Wed Apr 3, 2019
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: It’s payrolls week, so a couple of private sector looks at employment are released. ADP is both high-profile, and influential to price action. Meanwhile, it also allows us to calibrate sentiment to some degree. And any reaction to its pre-open report is often duplicated in reaction to post-open reports.

A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Friday’s calendar is both high-profile and reliably influential to price action. The pre-open Retail Sales has been surprising recently. But the post-open ISM tends to inhibit price action before its release, which then generates a reaction.
