Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Apr 21, 2016
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Thursday’s calendar is busy, but there are only two reliably influential reports. The pre-open Philly Fed is the only relevant Fed survey. And the post-open LEI usually influences price action. Keep in mind that reaction to the pre-open reports tends to be repeated by the post-open reports. Also look for late-afternoon action to become inhibited ahead of the post-close earnings from GOOG.
