Economic Calendar: Key Market Events for the Week from January 12, 2026 to January 16, 2026

The week begins on Monday with multiple scheduled appearances by FOMC members, several U.S. Treasury bill and note auctions, and a speech by ECB Executive Board member Luis de Guindos, while public holidays are observed in Japan and Colombia.

Tuesday features the monthly U.S. Consumer Price Index release — the week’s single most important inflation data point — alongside ADP private-sector employment change and Brazilian services sector growth indicators.

On Wednesday, attention turns to U.S. retail sales and producer price index figures, Chinese monetary aggregates and new loan data, as well as Brazilian automotive production and foreign exchange flows.

Thursday brings monthly GDP and industrial production releases from the United Kingdom, together with Brazilian retail sales performance and Mexican gross fixed capital formation statistics.

The week concludes on Friday with U.S. industrial production and capacity utilization data, Brazilian inflation (IGP-10) and the IBC-Br economic activity index, and German consumer price index figures.
