Other market events

Federal Reserve policy-decision dates and BLS publication dates for CPI and Employment Situation. When BLS blocks access, the first publication of each month's not-seasonally-adjusted CPI and total payrolls (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis ALFRED) gives the release date. Each CPI and jobs report counts once, on the day its reference month was first published; later revision dates are dropped. Returns start at the first session open after release and end at the 1st, 5th or 20th session close. Treasury 10Y yield changes are expressed in basis points; other tracked reactions are percent returns. Historical backdrop is a transparent proxy from prior S&P 500 20-session momentum and VIX level; it is not Regimic's archived live regime. Groups below three events withhold statistics. Release surprises and revision magnitudes are not classified. Descriptive association does not establish causality. Data updated 2026-11-02. For information only; not investment advice.
