Today's market-moving economic data and earnings schedule

Jun 11, 2021 at 8:27 AM

Investors will close out the week today with the economic calendar featuring the consumer sentiment index.

There are no public companies slated to release quarterly earnings reports today, June 11, as earnings season winds down.

In case you missed it, earlier this week we dropped the 411 on meme stocks. We provided some background, what qualifies a stock as a meme stock, and a bunch of other frequently asked questions. So, here is everything you need to know about meme stocks. At Schaeffer's Investment Research, we see major opportunity surrounding meme stocks to be played from an options perspective. More on that, soon!

Looking ahead to next week, investors will be rounding out mid-June with a mix of economic reports and earnings. Plenty of manufacturing data will be highlighted next week, as well as housing. Wednesday will bring announcements from the Federal Reserve and its Chairman, Jerome Powell. Meanwhile, though earnings season has come and gone, there will still be a handful of quarterly reports to unpack, including H & R Block (HRB), Kroger (KR), and Smith & Wesson Brands (SWBI). All economic dates listed here are tentative and subject to change.
