stats being released overnight

i'm guessing that retail can only be ugly in light of the earnings figs coming out - it's the unemployment numbers this week where i think could really bring it all home, unless kind employers defer the inevitable a little longer, particulalrly those about to announce earnings... we'll see

Wednesday's economic calendar - US time:

7:00 MBA Mortgage Applications

8:30 Retail Sales

8:30 Import/Export Prices

10:00 Business Inventories

10:30 EIA Petroleum Status

1:00 PM Fed's Stern speaks on macroeonomic policy

2:00 PM Fed's Beige Book



good luck
