economic report released early ?

Mich. Sent. is always released early. Nothing new there. The futures will always move up or down a little right before report is release. I suppose some know ahead of time. Who really knows. Just get flat before the numbers come out and wait untill the market spasms stop and you will be fine.
 
I happened to be listening to the ND squawk box at 0950 and the guy said "all eyes are on the board, numbers coming out sometime between 945 and 1000" This was after the first numbers at 945....

Are you basically saying any 10 AM report might be released as early as 9:45?


I dont think so.....different entities reporting those #'s...

Your use of the word "slightly" when describing bullish seems appropriate now?

Even with positive or neutral news the market can't hold together. The bear continues his run.
