Next Week's Game Plan 🎯
🗓️US Macro Calendar Next Week (October 12, 2026) – Key Events for Market🗓️
➡️Monday: -
➡️Tuesday: ADP Employment Change Weekly, Existing Home Sales (Sep).
➡️Wednesday: CPI (Sep), Beige Book.
➡️Thursday: PPI (Sep), Retail Sales (Sep), Initial Jobless Claims
➡️Friday: Fed Chair Warsh Speaks, Industrial Production (Sep)
🔹 Monday: No major US economic releases are scheduled. Markets may trade on positioning and headlines, but thinner Treasury-market liquidity around the US holiday can make some price moves less reliable.
🔹 Tuesday: Existing Home Sales for September show whether the housing market is holding up under current mortgage rates. ADP’s weekly employment estimate can provide an additional labor-market signal.
🔹 Wednesday: September CPI is the main event. Markets will focus on monthly headline and core inflation to determine whether price pressures are easing or remaining sticky. The Beige Book adds regional business feedback on hiring, wages, prices, and demand, helping explain the inflation numbers.
🔹 Thursday: PPI measures producer-price pressures, while Retail Sales show whether US consumers are still spending strongly. Initial Jobless Claims provide a weekly snapshot of layoffs.
🔹 Friday: Industrial Production measures output across manufacturing, mining, and utilities, offering a check on economic momentum. Kevin Warsh, Chair of the U.S. Federal Reserve, is scheduled to participate in a fireside chat with the IMFs managing director next week.
