A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
 

Highlights: More reports are being crammed into Wednesday due to this week's holiday. The pre-open Durable Goods report is high-profile, but surprisingly lacks a track record of influencing price action. The post-open housing sector reports might have an impact if they are surprising--otherwise their relevance is that they're released simultaneously. Consumer Sentiment will either validate or digress fromTuesday's weak Consumer Confidence.
