Econ Calendar
Look ahead: Economic Calendar
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Signals at Wednesday’s close already defined expiration’s bias. But that doesn’t prevent volatility along the way. Especially into and out of the 9:55 Consumer Sentiment.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Thursday’s calendar is a veritable minefield. Four items are released simultaneously at 8:30, three of which are high-profile with histories of influencing price action. And I have not seen these released together, so the market has no experience in absorbing them in unison. But, wait, there’s more… 9:15’s Industrial Production is still pre-open. And although 9:45’s Bloomberg index doesn’t tend to influence price action, it does keep alive the calendar’s rope-a-dope — right into 10:00’s influential Philly Fed Survey.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Only PPI among Wednesday’s pre-open reports has a history of influencing price action. But when MBA or Retail Sales surprises, they really surprise since that is so unusual. The post-open Business Inventories report is not influential. But awaiting the 30-year auction results could inhibit noon hour volatility.

Look ahead: Economic Calendar
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: The 10-year auction starts getting further out on the yield curve, and risks disappointing — especially with expectations already slanted by the Twist operations. Its success will also help to anticipate Wednesday’s 30-year. Tuesday’s other reports may surprise, too, but don’t otherwise have a history of influencing price action.
