FXGM’s Economic Calendar is a calendar that is intended to inform the traders
about the scheduled major
economic numbers (like CPI, PMI, Jobless Claims), government reports,
and speeches of the most influential persons of the financial world.
The Economic Calendar is used by investors to interpret current and/or future investment
possibilities, and judge the overall health of an economy. An economic indicator
is only useful if one interprets it correctly. History has shown strong correlations
between economic growth (as measured by GDP) and corporate profit growth. However,
determining whether a specific company will grow its earnings based on one indicator
is nearly impossible. Indicators give us signs along the road, but the best investors
will utilize many economic indicators, looking for patterns and verifications within
different sets of data. Most economic indicators have a specific schedule for release,
allowing investors to prepare for and plan on seeing certain information at certain
times of the month and year.
