Forex Economic Calendar: Key Data Releases Ahead for August 15-17, 2026

What happened

The economic calendar lists upcoming releases for August 15-17, 2026, including New Zealand food prices (July), UK Rightmove house prices (August), Japan Q2 GDP and core machinery orders (June), and Thailand Q2 GDP. It also shows the U.S. dollar sliding on softer economic data, while the New Zealand dollar strengthened after a hawkish RBNZ policy outlook.

Why it matters

These indicators offer early signals on inflation, growth, and housing demand. The dollar's decline and NZD strength illustrate how policy expectations and incoming data can move currency markets.
