This Week: Elections and Economic Data, A Full Plate of Information

Not only do we have a much watched mid-term election on Tuesday, an FOMC meeting/statement on Wednesday, scattered earnings results, but a full economic week as well.

Not withstanding the above mentioned items, key economic reports we will be watching will be Friday’s Payroll and Home sales, Thursdays Initial Claims, Tuesdays ADP and Today’s Personal Income and Spending (all of our interest is to help gauge the US Consumer’s temperature.)

This information is from Yahoo Finance and many of the items are hot-linked for greater information and definitions.

It is a lot, but thought you might find it interesting to see what a busy economic week looks like!

Have a Great Day!
