Earnings Preview for Jun 29-Jul 3
Print
ShareThis will be a holiday week with a limited number of earnings reports and low volume.
Out of the 19 companies confirmed to report, 4 are in the S&P 500: Apollo Group (APOL - Analyst Report), Constellation Brands (STZ - Analyst Report), General Mills (GIS - Analyst Report) and H&R Block (HRB - Analyst Report).
June unemployment and nonfarm payrolls data will be published a day early on Jul 2. Combined with what should be really light volume, the numbers could result in a sizeable market move on Thursday.
- Tuesday: June Conference Board consumer confidence survey, S&P/Case-Schiller housing index, Chicago PMI
- Wednesday: ISM manufacturing survey, ADP employment survey, May pending home sales, May construction spending, June auto sales, weekly crude inventories
- Thursday: June unemployment and nonfarm payrolls, weekly initial jobless claims, May factory orders
No Fed officials are scheduled to speak.
The U.S. financial markets will be closed on Friday, Jul 3. The stock exchanges will operate normal hours on Thursday, Jul 2.
As stated above, this is going to be a light volume week. Any move we see on Thursday should be taken in the context that a lot people are probably going be on vacation or looking to get out of the office early.
Have a great holiday.
