Even with markets closed on Monday for Memorial Day and most prominent earnings releases behind us, next week's schedule has much to offer. The economic calendar is packed early on, with several reports on the manufacturing sector set to hit. Later in the week, all eyes will be on the Labor Department's nonfarm payrolls report for May -- as the jobs data could carry rate-hike implications -- along with the Fed's Beige Book. Meanwhile, earnings from semiconductor stocks will be in focus on Thursday, with Ambarella Inc (NASDAQ:AMBA) and Broadcom Corporation (NASDAQ:AVGO) scheduled to report. 

Below is a brief list of some key market events scheduled for the upcoming week. All earnings dates listed below are tentative and subject to change. Please check with each company's respective website for official reporting dates.
