Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Oct 20, 2016 – If, Then… Market Timing

Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Oct 20, 2016

By Rod David | October 19, 2016 - 12:34 pm

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

Highlights: Neither of the two leading candidates can affect the economy this year, but Wednesday night’s Globex action might be influenced by the night’s debate between them. Thursday’s pre-open ECB policy statement is more relevant, and more so the subsequent press conference held by Mario Draghi who often triggers volatility. Any reaction to the pre-open Philly Fed survey is likely to be duplicated by post-open reports.
