Look ahead: Economic Calendar – for Thu Sep 1, 2016
A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Thursday’s calendar is heavy, even when considered in the context of an otherwise busy week. Pre-open reports are high-profile, but not necessarily influential. Nevertheless, any reaction to the pre-open reports is likely to be duplicated by the post-open reports. The noon hour’s Fed speaker is among the least influential to price action.
