Next Week's Game Plan 🎯

🗓️US Macro Calendar Next Week (September 14, 2026) – Key Events for Market🗓️

➡️Monday: -

➡️Tuesday: ADP Employment Change Weekly.

➡️Wednesday: Retail Sales (Aug), Fed Interest Rate Decision w/ FOMC Economic Projections.

➡️Thursday: Initial Jobless Claims, Building Permits (Aug), Housing Starts (Aug), Pending Home Sales (Aug).

➡️Friday: Industrial Production (Aug).

🔹Monday: -

🔹Tuesday: ADP is the early private-payroll read. A firm print supports the idea that the labor market is still tight going into the FOMC; a soft one gives the committee more cover to stay on hold.

🔹Wednesday: Retail sales show whether the consumer is still spending after August. Then the main event: the rate decision plus the SEP / projections. Markets will line Tuesday’s hiring signal up against the sales number and listen for any shift in the statement, the dots, and the press conference. A hold with a hawkish SEP is a different tape than a hike, or a hold with a dovish presser.

🔹Thursday: Jobless claims are the freshest labor check after ADP. Starts, permits, and pending home sales measure housing demand under current mortgage rates — the channel that usually breaks first when policy stays restrictive.

🔹Friday: Industrial production is the factory / capacity close to the week. It rarely overrides the FOMC, but a sharp miss or beat can tweak growth expectations after the dots are out.

🔹🏗️ Housing, infrastructure & energy buildout — LEN, FPS, RFIL, EPM:

Lennar is the national homebuilder read on starts, incentives, and whether buyers still close. Forgent is the data-center and grid electrical-equipment check: orders, backlog, and whether AI power demand is still converting into shipments. RF Industries is the smaller interconnect, small-cell, and cable-assembly attach to that same infrastructure cycle. Evolution Petroleum is the cash-flow oil-and-gas operator in the mix. Together they answer whether physical buildout — houses, power gear, and energy — is still getting funded into the fall.

🔹🧳 Travel, luxury & discretionary lifestyle — TCOM, LUXE, VRA, PLAY:

Trip.com is the international travel-booking print. LuxExperience (Mytheresa / NET-A-PORTER / MR PORTER / YOOX) is the high-end digital luxury basket. Vera Bradley is mid-tier handbags and gifts. Dave & Buster’s is out-of-home entertainment spend. Together they answer whether consumers are still paying for trips, luxury, and nights out — or trading down and staying home.
