Today's economic calendar is a must-see; these data releases and speeches will directly influence the subsequent market direction.

This morning, China's trade data and the State Council Information Office press conference are worth paying attention to, and OPEC's crude oil report will also send signals.

By 8:30 PM, the heavy data from the US will be released—November retail sales, PPI annual and monthly rates, and Q3 current account. These indicators reflect US inflation pressures and economic resilience, directly related to the Federal Reserve's future policy direction.

Around 11 PM, Federal Reserve Powell will speak, and attention should also be paid to US October commercial inventories and December existing home sales data. These are important gauges of economic heat and cold.

Between 11:30 and 12:00, the energy sector should focus on the three EIA crude oil inventory data: total inventories, Cushing inventories, and strategic petroleum reserve inventories.

After midnight, speeches by Fed Kashkari, the release of the Beige Book on economic conditions, and Williams' latest remarks are direct policy signals. Additionally, Milan's speech in Athens is also worth noting.

Overall, today is an information-intensive trading day. From trade to energy to Fed policy tendencies, each segment could trigger market volatility. Traders can adjust their positions based on these data.

Wow, today's data is so dense, it looks like we'll need to watch the market all day. Tonight's three consecutive Federal Reserve speeches, are they trying to keep us all awake? Haha. The retail sales data feels like the key; whether inflation or deflation dominates depends entirely on this. The three EIA inventory reports are the most easily overlooked; energy stocks need to keep up. Before and after Powell's speech, make sure to set stop-losses; it's too easy for the market to suddenly crash. The Beige Book release at midnight? They're testing traders' resilience. If the US data all surprises to the downside this time, can our A-shares still run? The trade data from China this morning is also quite critical; don't get distracted by US data. Watch the crude oil inventories; the energy sector might crash today. A whole day of information bombardment, friends holding positions, be careful.

Oh my, it's another data bomb day. Luckily, I set an alarm. The Fed folks' speeches can move the market more than the data... Retail sales and PPI need to be watched closely; inflation data will cause volatility once released. Won't sleep tonight, just stay glued to the screen until dawn. Days like this are most prone to crashes. EIA inventory data, energy brothers need to be careful; oil prices can change suddenly. The Beige Book's release always triggers strong market reactions. Everyone, make sure to set stop-losses.

Oh my god, it's another full data day. Why do I feel like this happens every day lately? Wait, how many of Fed's speeches do I need to listen to? Could they be contradictory? Haha Starting at 8 PM, I have to keep an eye on the screen. My nightlife is gone again. Retail data is about to explode the market, it feels like inflation hasn't been fully suppressed yet. There are too many energy sector data points. I give up on understanding and just follow the trades. I don't dare to hold heavy positions today; the data is too dense and easy to get caught off guard. All kinds of Federal Reserve speeches. Why do they have so much to say? Another sleepless night, the daily life of crypto traders. If PPI exceeds expectations, it's game over. Shorts will go crazy. China's trade data came in the morning. Is this testing my alertness? Looking at this schedule, I feel exhausted, but I can't stop. Kashkari always says weird things; I need to be prepared.

Another night of staying up, the Fed folks' words move the markets even more than the data Oh my god, this schedule, running from morning to midnight nonstop, will my holdings survive until tomorrow? PPI is out, retail data is out, inflation is never-ending The 11 o'clock speech is the most critical, we're probably going to get cut again this time haha Three consecutive energy data releases, oil prices are probably about to cause some trouble As soon as the Beige Book is released, all positions need to be reassessed, I'm really exhausted On days like this with information bombardment, it's best to stay in cash and watch the show, to avoid getting caught in a trap
