Economic calendar
The dates when central banks decide on interest rates and statistics offices publish inflation, jobs and growth figures for the United States, the euro area and Romania. Taken from the official schedules only, with a sentence on why each release matters and the latest value where the market monitor already tracks it.
Forecasts and consensus estimates are not shown: they are licensed commercial data. Publishers can move a date; the official page has the final word.
Times are Bucharest time (Europe/Bucharest), with the publisher's local time in brackets. The export includes the events shown.
