US Economic Calendar for the Week of May 12, 2014

For anyone concerned with the direction of interest rates, mortgage rates and the overall strength of the US economy, the data scheduled to be released in the upcoming week in conjunction with any comments coming out of the mouths of members of the Federal Open Market Committee will most certainly provide some strong clues about all of them.

They will likely also spur market speculation on the future tapering intentions of the Federal Reserve as well so, any way you slice it, there is likely going to be significant action in the bond markets as a result.

Add to the mix continued global turmoil particularly in Russia and Ukraine where another referendum vote is scheduled to occur on Sunday and the impact it is going to on commodity prices and the FOREX market, and the foundation has been set for an interesting week ahead!

Courtesy of Econoday this is the chart of the US economic data to be released during the week of May 12, 2014 along with scheduled speeches by members of the Federal Reserve.

Highlights for the week include an appearance by Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen who on Thursday will be speaking at a Small Business Administration event as well as the release of the Housing Market Index on Wednesday and Housing Starts on Friday.

The chart below also includes the upcoming treasury auction calendar!

Hallmark Abstract Service provides title insurance for both residential and commercial real estate transactions in New York State.

Hallmark Abstract President Michael Haltman is also extremely involved with the combat veterans 501(c)(3) Heroes To Heroes Foundation, serving as the Board Chair.

Hallmark Abstract Service

In 2008 we opened our doors focused on two primary goals:

Number one was to be a title insurance company that would provide clients with a superior finished product that completely protects their interests for what will likely be one of the largest transactions of their lifetime.

Number two was to insure that the experience of working with Hallmark Abstract Service was as easy and seamless as possible for all parties involved in the transaction!

From the number of satisfied clients who come back to Hallmark Abstract Service time after time for their title insurance needs, the evidence bears out that we have accomplished these two goals in the past and will maintain our client centric focus far into the future!

Michael Haltman

Post 1984 MBA in Finance from the State University of New York at Albany that concentrated on the tax-exempt market, Michael became a municipal bond analyst at Shearson/Lehman Brothers tasked with following general obligation issuers on the city and state level as well as housing bonds secured by mortgage pools.

This experience at Shearson/Lehman Brothers followed by stints at PaineWebber and Citigroup provided a broad framework and understanding of the real estate and mortgage markets.

As CEO of Exeter Commercial which underwrote and funded commercial mortgage loans as a correspondent lender, title insurance played a critical role in both the underwriting and closing process.

In 2008 recognizing both an opportunity and need, Hallmark Abstract Service was born.
