Recently, the U.S. government shutdown has thrown the data release schedule into chaos.
The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has reported that several important data release schedules have been adjusted:
The preliminary GDP value for the third quarter that was supposed to be released on October 30? It has been directly canceled. Many people in the market were paying attention to this data, and now it has just disappeared.
There is also the PCE and personal income report for September - this is one of the inflation indicators that the Federal Reserve is paying the closest attention to. It was originally scheduled to be released on October 31, but it has now been pushed to December 5 at 10 AM (which will be evening here).
The chaos of this data release can significantly impact market sentiment, especially for traders who employ macro strategies, disrupting their rhythm.

dude this is literally a dark forest moment... they're *delaying* the most critical inflation signals? that's not chaos, that's a feature. macro traders are flying blind and someone's definitely extracting value from that information asymmetry rn

The government shutdown is really something, who can withstand the delay in data
Canceling GDP is one thing, but PCE won't be available until December, this pace is indeed explosive
Retail investors are even worse off, they can't plan ahead at all
The Fed must be so confused right now

The U.S. government is at it again, the GDP data just disappeared, this is ridiculous.
---
PCE postponed to December? This rhythm is driving me crazy.
---
If there's a shutdown, let it be, but data can just vanish? My blood pressure is up now with all this trading.
---
So macro traders are just waiting for the data bombardment in December, it's exciting but too sudden.
---
What the hell is the cancellation of the initial GDP value, isn't this just creating a market vacuum?
---
Now even economic data is playing word games, what is the Fed looking at?
---
Inflation data pushed back two months, prices will have to be re-evaluated again.

The government shutdown is really something; even the data can "disappear," and I think the market is going to go crazy.
Is this GDP directly canceled? No way, how can it be like this?
PCE has been delayed for more than a month; the macro guys must be feeling really bad.
The absurdity of this operation in the U.S. is truly lowering the bar.

No way, GDP is directly canceled? How disappointing must it be to play like this?
PCE is postponed to December, so how will the market play in these two months of gap?
The government shutdown is one thing, but even the data has to be sacrificed, ridiculous.
How difficult must it be for macro traders now, completely lacking a reference point.
Is this intentionally creating uncertainty or is it really just this bad?

GDP is gone just like that? This move is insane. The US government is playing with fire here.
