Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Tue Dec 17, 2014
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: I”m not sure what time the BOE will release minutes from last month”s policy meeting. Wednesday”s pre-open CPI has a track record of influencing price action. But price action often becomes paralyzed by anxiousness ahead of the afternoon”s FOMC news and especially Janet Yellen”s press conference. That”s not always the case, and that”s where the opportunities are.
