Econ Calendar

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

Highlights: The pre-open high-profile Durable Goods report is also reliably influential to price. And any noticeable reaction to a pre-open report is likely to be duplicated in reaction to post-open reports. At least one post-open report is also both high-profile and reliable for a price reaction. Not that this environment needs it — also being Quadruple Witch expiration — but these add catalysts for volatility.
