How to read your result
The result lists scheduled releases, such as Fed decisions and jobs reports, that fall between today and your target date. Days with big releases can bring bigger moves in pricing, in either direction.
- Event: the scheduled release.
- Date: when it is published.
- Why it matters: what markets watch in it.
What to do next
Share the list with your lender when you talk about lock timing. No one can predict which way pricing will move.
Data used
FOMC dates for 2026 and 2027 come from the Federal Reserve calendar, checked on the review date; later meetings are tentative until confirmed. Jobs-report Fridays are approximations; confirm on the BLS release calendar.
Market questions
Should I lock before a Fed meeting?
That depends on your timeline and risk tolerance; no tool can predict the market's reaction. Discuss timing with your lender.
