Economic Calendar

The Economic Calendar is a forward-looking schedule of economic data releases, central bank meetings, and market-moving events from major economies around the world. Access it at /economic-calendar.

​
Accessing the Calendar

Navigate to Economic Calendar in the sidebar.

​
Overview

The Economic Calendar shows you what economic events are coming up so you can anticipate market-moving data and prepare analysis ahead of time. Rather than being surprised by a CPI print or an FOMC decision, the calendar gives you a structured view of the scheduled macro landscape.

​
Impact Classification

Events are color-coded by expected market impact: High-impact events are the ones most likely to cause sharp moves in equities, bonds, and currencies. Focus on these first.

​
Filtering Options

  • By Country: Filter to specific countries (US, EU, UK, Japan, China, Canada, etc.)
  • By Impact Level: Show only High or High + Medium impact events
  • By Date Range: View events for today, this week, next week, or a custom range
  • By Event Type: Central bank decisions, inflation data, employment data, growth data

​

Key Event Categories

Central Bank Events

Inflation Data

​
Employment Data

​
Growth Data

The advance GDP estimate gets the most market attention because it’s the first read. Subsequent revisions (preliminary and final) typically cause smaller reactions unless they deviate significantly from expectations.

​
Reading the Calendar Effectively

​
Before a High-Impact Release

  1. Note the consensus forecast — this is what markets have already priced in
  2. Check the prior reading — context for whether conditions are improving or deteriorating
  3. Look at the trend — has this indicator been consistently beating or missing expectations?

​
After the Release

  • Beat (actual > consensus): Generally bullish for the currency and equity market of that country
  • Miss (actual < consensus): Generally bearish
  • In-line: Low market reaction — the move is already priced
The direction of the surprise matters more than the absolute level.
For the Fed specifically, what matters most is not the headline rate decision (which is usually well-telegraphed) but the accompanying statement language, dot plot (quarterly), and Chair press conference.
