Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Wed Jan 30, 2019
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: It’s monthly payrolls week, so jobs reports take a higher-profile for fine-tuning its data, and for gauging market sentiment. That begins with Wednesday’s ADP report. The afternoon’s FOMC policy statement is both high-profile and reliably influential to price action, but even more so is the subsequent Fed Chair press conference. Then MSFT and FB announce earnings post-close, which often inhibits volatility, so this will be an interesting close.
