Econ Calendar

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

Highlights: Mondays are rarely so busy as this one. And many of its reports have track records of influencing price action.

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

Highlights: Friday’s pre-open GDP is high-profile, but tends not to be influential. The two post-open reports are reliable for impacting price action. A surprising Chicago PMI number will be influential before its public release, since its private institutional subscribers have lead time to react early — and that early noticeable reaction, if there is one, is usually extended. Consumer Sentiment influences price action, too. A hawkish Fed Governor speaks shortly after the reports.

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

Highlights: In addition to being announced simultaneously, Thursday’s two pre-open reports are high-profile and influential. I’m not sure, but they might also be accompanied by the embargo being lifted on Yellen’s opening remarks to the rescheduled Senate portion of the FOMC Chairman’s semi-annual Congressional testimony. That was the plan before cancelling her appearance ahead of blizzard conditions. In any case, her comments are likely to bullish for stocks and Gold, so a temporary or muted reaction would be a bearish indication.

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

Highlights: Wednesday’s post-open housing sector report follows two others this week, one of which trended more bearish than it had been. New data contradicting that would likely influence price action, but probably not otherwise.

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

Highlights: Tuesday’s econ reports are influential mostly for being a near-constant barrage of data hitting the market. Two housing sector reports announced simultaneously during the Market Tour could impact price action if they conflict with each other, or if both contradict the sector’s pessimistic trend. The post-ope Consumer Confidence has a track record of inhibiting and inciting volatility into and out of its report — the morning’s two retail sector reports might set the stage.
