🤖 What these releases mean for your business
CPI / PCE
Inflation readings that determine whether the Fed will raise, hold, or cut rates. High CPI = higher borrowing costs for longer.
FOMC Decision
The Fed's interest rate decision. Directly affects your business loan rates, credit cards, and mortgages within days.
Jobs Report
Unemployment + payrolls. Shows whether the labor market is tightening (harder/more expensive to hire) or easing.
GDP Growth
The economy's overall health. Slowing GDP = be conservative with investment. Expanding GDP = cautious optimism.
