Earnings Preview for Aug 31 – Sep 4 – Earnings Preview
Charles Rotblut (August 28th, 2009) Writes:
The economic calendar is pretty packed with the August ISM surveys, August employment data and minutes from the last Fed meeting all scheduled to be released. Adding to the potential volatility will be light volume, particularly on Friday afternoon as many traders leave early for the holiday.
Monday: August Chicago PMI Tuesday: August ISM manufacturing index, August auto sales, July construction spending, July pending home sales Wednesday: August ADP employment survey, August Fed minutes, July factory orders, revised Q2 productivity, weekly crude inventories, weekly mortgage applications Thursday: August ISM services index, weekly initial jobless claims, weekly natural gas inventories Friday: August unemployment rate and nonfarm payrolls
No Fed officials are scheduled to speak.
The U.S. financial markets will be closed on Monday,
