Monday: Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey

by Calculated Risk on 11/03/2013 08:42:00 PM

Monday:
• Early, the LPS September Mortgage Monitor report. This is a monthly report of mortgage delinquencies and other mortgage data.

• At 10:00 AM, the Manufacturers' Shipments, Inventories and Orders (Factory Orders) for both August and September. The consensus is for a 0.3% increase in August orders, and a 1.7% increase in September orders.

• At 2:00 PM, the October 2013 Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey on Bank Lending Practices from the Federal Reserve. This might show some slight loosening in lending standards.

Weekend:
Schedule for Week of November 3rd

Will the Fed "Taper" in December?

From CNBC:
Pre-Market Data and Bloomberg futures: the S&P futures are up slightly and DOW futures are up 15 (fair value).

Oil prices are down with WTI futures at $94.60 per barrel and Brent at $105.90 per barrel.

Below is a graph from Gasbuddy.com for nationwide gasoline prices. Nationally prices are around $3.26 per gallon.  If you click on "show crude oil prices", the graph displays oil prices for WTI, not Brent; gasoline prices in most of the U.S. are impacted more by Brent prices.
