To The Moon

Public Holidays There will be no public holidays in China, Hong Kong, Singapore, or America next week. Economic Calendar (13Jan2025) Notable Highlights The Consumer Price Index (CPI) should be the most watched data for the coming week. CPI is one of the economic data used as a reference for inflation. This should influence the Fed’s decision on interest rates, which is likely to bring some volatility to the market. The Producer Price Index (PPI) reveals the inflation that hits the producer first. If it goes up, this implies that producers have inflationary price pressure, which should be passed on to the consumers. Some view this as the prelude to inflation. Core Retail Sales and Retail Sales will usher in an understanding of consumer retail consumption. Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index provides an overview of manufacturing. China’s GDP will be announced in the coming week. As the global factory that accounts for 30% of global manufacturing, this can also be read as the outlook of the global economy. Initial jobless claims will be announced. The Federal Reserve uses this as one of the key macro data references as it balances inflation and employment in the economy. Crude Oil Inventories can be seen as forward indicators of market demand and consumption. If the trend of excess inventories continues, demand erosion can lead to reduced production & weakening consumer spending. @TigerStars $.SPX(.SPX)$
