Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Wed Mar 4 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights:
Yellen speaks overnight, and several more Fed speakers appear intraday Wednesday. The monthly ADP report tends to influence price action, as does the post-open ISM number. The afternoon”s Beige Book isn”t as influential as it once was, but it can inhibit price action before its release. Meanwhile, it”s never certain how or even whether developments will be available publicly, but the Supreme Court hears arguments in the latest challenge to Obamacare.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Mon Mar 2 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Despite the reaction Friday to the Chicago PMI miss, Monday”s PMI report doesn”t have a track record for influencing price action. But the post-open ISM report does. The construction report does not, but being released simultaneously with ISM would raise its profile.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Fri Feb 20 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights:
Friday”s econ calendar is already busy, and with high-profile items that have reliable track records for influencing price action. Sprinkle in three Fed speakers appearing at a symposium, and the morning could be very volatile. Note that the Chicago PMI number is first released privately to institutional subscribers, and reaction to a surprise is possible, valid, and likely to extend when the number is released publicly.
