Look ahead: Economic Calendar – If, Then… Market Timing

Look ahead: Economic Calendar

By Rod David | July 21, 2010 - 12:34 pm

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

Highlights: Thursday’s calendar isn’t so much a minefield as it is a shooting gallery. And weekly Jobless Claims might be the least of it. If Bernanke’s testimony Wednesday made any waves, then the market will probably discount the possibility of it repeating Thursday (hint: it rarely does). The big salvo comes with 10:00’s troika of simultaneous, high-profile, post-open reports. Two of which are housing relating, so consider the week’s earlier reactions to Housing Starts (Tue) and MBA Purchase Apps (Wed).
