• Consumers’ feelings about the economy, their job prospects and spending amid COVID-19 will be on the agenda.
• This week investors will get a sense of consumer sentiment for the start of 2022 as the Consumer Confidence Index for January, Consumer Spending for December and a final reading on Consumer Sentiment in January will be released.
• Manufacturing and services PMI, durable goods, initial and existing unemployment claims, and the Fed’s policy meeting are also due next week.
Investors will get more insight this week into how consumers felt about the economy and spending while the number of COVID-19 cases continued to rise. The Consumer Confidence Index for January, which tracks how consumers feel about their finances, and the final reading for Consumer Sentiment in January will provide much-needed insight. So too will data surrounding consumer spending and durable goods for December.
Also on tap this week is the manufacturing and services Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) flash surveys for January, the FOMC meeting, and initial and existing unemployment claims. Taken together, investors should have a better idea of where the economy is heading as we approach the second month of the new year.
