Last updated: 20 October 2026 When are the 2027 CPI reports, jobs reports and Fed decisions? Here is every date in one place, taken from the official BLS, Federal Reserve and GOV.UK schedules on 20 October 2026, with a calendar file you can import.
40 dates for 2027 in one calendar: 12 CPI reports, 12 jobs reports, 8 Fed rate decisions and 8 UK bank holidays, with a free .ics file you can add to Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar.
The first big data day is Friday 8 January, the December jobs report. The first CPI report is Wednesday 13 January, and the first Fed decision is Wednesday 27 January.
Four of the eight Fed meetings come with new projections (March, June, September and December), which usually means more volatility. 12 of the 12 jobs reports fall on a Friday, as usual.
UK traders lose two days at Christmas. Christmas Day falls on a Saturday in 2027, so the England and Wales bank holidays move to Monday 27 and Tuesday 28 December.

What this means for prop traders
Many prop firms restrict trading a few minutes either side of CPI, jobs reports and FOMC decisions, and some hold or exclude profits made then. Rules differ by firm, so check our prop firm news trading rules before each release. For the rest of 2026, use the news-day calendar feed. Past market moves on these days are on CPI and jobs-report day market moves.

Method
Dates and times are copied from each agency’s published schedule. FOMC decision times use the Fed’s usual 2:00 p.m. Eastern statement time; the Fed confirms times closer to each meeting. The .ics file stores times in UTC, so daylight-saving changes are handled for you.
Caveats
Agencies can change dates. A government shutdown delayed BLS releases in 2025, for example. Check the source schedules before trading.
This calendar doesn’t include PPI, retail sales, GDP or Treasury auctions. US market holidays are also not listed here.
