The U.S. government shutdown has reshaped the economic calendar, causing significant delays to key economic data releases. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) announced critical changes to the schedule for major economic indicators, directly impacting market participants and investors who rely on these reports for decision-making.

Q3 GDP Preliminary Report Cancelled

The preliminary estimate for third-quarter 2025 GDP has been withdrawn entirely from the release schedule. This data point, originally planned for October 30th, would have provided the first snapshot of economic growth during the quarter. The cancellation leaves a notable gap in the early economic assessments that typically guide market sentiment.

PCE Report Release Date Reset to December 5th

The highly anticipated Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report and Personal Income data have been rescheduled to December 5th at 10:00 AM Beijing time. These reports were initially set for October 31st but were delayed due to government shutdown disruptions. The PCE report holds particular significance for market analysts tracking inflation trends and Federal Reserve policy directions, making the new release date a critical calendar marker for investors and traders monitoring economic fundamentals.

The rescheduled PCE report release date reflects ongoing operational challenges from the U.S. government closure, emphasizing the importance of tracking official BEA announcements for the most current economic data schedules.
