Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Aug 3, 2017
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Thursday’s calendar is busy, with the Bank of England policy statement greeting the Pound’s tremendous run. Two pre-open reports might give more insight into sentiment ahead of Friday’s payrolls data. The three post-close items don’t have a reliable track record for influencing price action. But close proximity of their releases could enhance the reaction to an outlier number.
