Global market agenda: Key events for Aug 24, 2026

Global financial markets will focus on corporate earnings and macroeconomic data on Monday, Aug. 24, 2026, with Chinese e-commerce giant PDD Holdings scheduled to release its second-quarter results.

PDD Holdings, the operator of Pinduoduo, is set to publish its Q2 financials, providing insight into the performance of China’s fast-growing e-commerce sector. The results will be closely watched by investors assessing consumer spending trends and digital retail dynamics in the world’s second-largest economy.

In the United States, the Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI) for July 2026 is due for release. The CFNAI, a weighted average of 85 economic indicators, serves as a gauge of U.S. economic activity, with readings above zero indicating above-trend growth and negative values signaling economic slack. The July figure will be scrutinized for signs of momentum or deceleration in the U.S. economy amid shifting monetary policy expectations.

No additional corporate or economic events have been confirmed for the date as of the latest market calendar.
