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 post-open econ report. It is no long abnormal, but still unusual. And that presents a challenge for the market to absorb.

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

Highlights: This is an unusual number of high-profile reports accompanying expiration — quarterly expiration, no less. And the reports stream steadily through the open. But sentiment should be obvious before the last report comes.

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

Highlights: Three reports announced simultaneously before Thursday’s open, at least two of which are high-profile. That’s more than the market has been asked to absorb in awhile. The 30-year auction should register a reaction, too.

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

Highlights: This week’s calendar is getting more interesting. MBA Purchase Apps and Retail Sales rarely surprise, but they have a lot of impact when they do. PPI is always influential. The wild card is the 10-year auction, which is far enough out the yield curve not to rely on a smooth result.

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

Highlights: Tuesday’s calendar is busier than Monday, which was empty. But it’s no more relevant, as none of the items have any track record of influencing price action. The balance of the week makes up for that.
