Econ Calendar
Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Wed Jan 14 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: A lot of high-profile items are on Wednesday”s econ calendar. The pre-open Retail Sales report can also be influential when it surprises, so it should at least inhibit trending before its release since it”s still reporting the holiday sales period. The 30-year auction is greeted back near price highs, but only on a retest. And the afternoon”s Beige Book release is reliable for triggering some sort of reaction.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Tue Jan 13 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: The economic calendar gets busy this week, if only sporadically high-profile. Tuesday starts with a hawkish Fed speaker before the open, followed by the post-open JOLTS report. Each has gotten a track record for triggering significant reactions, albeit short-term.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Fri Jan 9 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: The monthly Employment Situation report is high-profile and influential to price action. It”s also pre-open, so its effect is usually done before the cash session. Meanwhile, the afternoon”s Fed speaker is unusual for a Friday. That”s also high-profile, and tends to influence price action.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Jan 8 2015
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Notice that the ECB is not announcing its policy statement Thursday. That will come in two weeks. Their current meeting is non-monetary, having changed their schedule to every six weeks for monetary meetings. When the new structure was announced in July, ECB president Mario Draghi explained that the move would help stamp out expectations by financial markets for action from every meeting. I”ll leap-frog over commenting on whether avoiding decisions is more political than governing-like. Let”s just consider the ramifications of the BOE statement. Its influence on price action had become almost negligible with the ECB statement following shortly. Not anymore. So, this statement cycle will be interesting to assess for any new-found impact.
