Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Dec 6, 2018
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Wednesday’s day of mourning has doubled-up its reports onto Thursday’s calendar. The day is very busy, with multiple simultaneous pre-open and post-open reports, which can make otherwise lower-profile items more influential than otherwise. But ADP is Thursday’s only reliably influential report, delayed from Wednesday, and also very relevant to fine-tuning our expectations for Friday’s reaction to its Employment Situation report.
