US nights: CPI, jobs and the Fed in Australian time
Know the main US releases, when they land in Australia, and why many assets move together on those nights.
Module 5 of 26, The economic calendar. Lesson 3 of 4, about 16 minutes.
The takeaway
US economic data and Fed statements land outside ASX hours, while the market is closed. When they release, interest rate expectations drive multiple asset classes in the same direction, spiking correlation and reducing diversification benefits. This gap risk is why release times matter.
