The Week Ahead: 28th August – 1st September 2023

Overview for the Week Ahead

After Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell ended the week noting the central bank is “prepared to raise rates further,” the economic calendar will bring two of the Fed’s key data points into focus in the week ahead: A labour report and an updated look at inflation.

The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index, the Fed’s preferred inflation indicator, is scheduled for Thursday morning while the August jobs report is expected Friday.

Investors will track weekly jobless claims data and the monthly read on private payrolls from ADP, both due out Thursday. The monthly look at job openings on Tuesday will also garner investor attention as will fresh data on housing prices and manufacturing prices.
