Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Fri May 5, 2017
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: The monthly Employment Situation report is being released alone Friday. That’s not in the wilderness, as no other reports are competing for attention or interpretation. As to the latter, the mass of Fed speakers following through the day will likely share how the data affect their views, albeit coming after this week’s FOMC policy statement.
