Econ Calendar

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

Highlights: The week begins with a pre-open report that is not high-profile, but which could still influence price action in case of a surprise.

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

Highlights: Both of Friday morning’s post-open reports are high-profile. Their staggered timing threatens to deliver a one-two punch that either knocks out any initial trending, or else accelerates it through the noon hour.

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

Highlights: Thursday’s two 8:30 reports are high-profile, and so is at least one of 10:00’s. The latter’s reaction should be obvious based on the reaction at 8:30.

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

Highlights: Not only does Wednesday morning contain several high-profile reports, but they are mostly staggered through the open. Each of 8:30’s reports tend to influence price action, while 9:15’s report is unusually-timed and 10:00’s should at least inhibit price action ahead of it.

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

Highlights: After last week’s dearth of econ reports, and Monday’s total lack thereof, Tuesday’s calendar seems very busy. It is, but it’s not very high-profile. PPI is reliably influential. Any other item Tuesday must surprise in order to impact price action beyond inhibiting it.
