Friday was a big day in the US markets.
The released Unemployment Rate stats, as well as Total Vehicle Sales
and other important US economy stats, makes sure that the first Friday
of the month should have a big red circle around it in any one's
calendar.
There are other key US dates that may be interesting to look at, from
a seasonality point of view. For example, the US Consumer Price Index
stats released in the middle of the month (2nd/3rd Wednesday of month)
.
The MetaStock indicator below can help pinpoint those important dates.
Plot below the S&P500 cash index chart, and take a look at the key
dates and corresponding chart action.
