Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Wed Dec 5, 2018 – If, Then… Market Timing

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Wed Dec 5, 2018

By Rod David | December 4, 2018 - 12:34 pm

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

Highlights: The national day of mourning for the late President George H.W Bush has affected Wednesday’s econ calendar. Price action was trading in anticipation of previously scheduled items — Fed Chair Powell’s testimony, Beige Book greeting an open session, etc. — so we should assume there will be some added degree of volatility. The unusual trading halt for futures has an impact, too (I believe the 9:30 close is correct, and will update if I learn otherwise).
