How to read the calendar

Nothing on this table is decoration

Each column answers a different question. If you skip one, you will misread why a market moved.

Time

The scheduled release, converted into the timezone you selected. Speeches and some auctions can slip by a few minutes. All-day items have no intraday print.

Currency and country

The economy the data describes. USD NFP moves gold and oil globally; a Japanese holiday usually does not. “All” is a multi-country summit or holiday block.

Impact

High: central-bank decisions, CPI, NFP, GDP. Medium: retail sales, PMI, claims. Low: secondary surveys and speeches. Holiday: markets thin, not a data print.

Forecast

The consensus the market has already priced. A “good” number that only matches forecast often does little. The surprise is what moves the tape.

Previous and revised

Last period's print. Statistical offices often revise it at the same time as the new number. A quiet headline with a large revision can still reprice gold.

Actual and surprise

Actual is the live print. Surprise is actual minus forecast when both can be read as numbers. Beat / miss / in-line is shown on the row once the figure is out.

Why this sits next to gold and oil

Data days are when education meets a live market

Gold often reacts to real yields and the dollar. Those, in turn, react to inflation, jobs, and Federal Reserve decisions. Oil reacts to growth prints and weekly inventory numbers. This calendar is the timetable for those releases — not a trading signal.

Use it to know when a number is due and what the consensus was. Do not treat a green or red surprise as advice to buy or sell.
