scroll down to
Economic Indicator Calendar

after today's PPI numbers any further QE's would be clearly insane. imo off course

You don't honestly think Ben cares about inflation, do you?

Are you f*cking serious?? Do you NOT check the econ calendar every morning before trading?

Not usually.

I'm holding stuff longer term now anyway so I don't really care about daily craziness. Plus I can't predict price anyway so even if I know a big announcement is coming up I don't know if it's going to make price go up or down.

If I was trading intraday I would probably not trade around the time of big announcements.

But since I've been holding a long SPY position for over a month now, it's not really applicable.

I dont trade around big announcements either but I need to know when they are so I'm not in a position.
