What’s happening
U.S. markets were quiet early Tuesday as investors returned from the Christmas Day holiday. Looking ahead, market analysts expect a calm week with only a couple of notable economic-data releases on the calendar.
Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research and a former Merrill Lynch trader, said investors will be paying close attention to Thursday’s weekly jobless claims report, along with a report on home prices in the U.S. which is due out shortly. Beyond that, he expects a quiet week.
