Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Aug 2, 2018
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Thursday’s calendar is busy, and high-profile, but none of its items are reliably influential to price action. The post-open Factory Orders could either reinforce or diverge from Wednesday’s PMI blowout, but its relevance is limited AFTER the FOMC meeting.
