• How consumers are feeling about their spending will be on full display this week with the consumer credit, small business confidence and consumer sentiment reports scheduled for release.
• Also on the calendar next week are the Jobs Opening and Labor Turnover Survey and initial and existing unemployment claims.
Investors will get more insight into how consumers are feeling about the economy and their bank accounts with key consumer-focused economic data slated to be released this week.
During the week, the Federal Reserve will release the change in consumer credit during January, the NFIB will issue the Small Business Optimism Index for February and the University of Michigan will give its preliminary read on consumer sentiment for the current month. Put together, investors should get a better idea of how consumer spending is doing with the number of COVID-19 cases coming down but the rise in inflation continuing unabated. Also scheduled for the week are the Jobs Opening and Labor Turnover Survey for February and initial and continuing unemployment claims for the week prior.
