Productivity and Costs
Productivity and Costs for Q2 2026 is scheduled for release at 08:30 EDT on 6 August 2026.
What it measures
Output per hour worked, and the unit labour costs of producing it. Productivity growth is what allows wages to rise without adding to inflation.

Impact on the Treasury curve
Not rated. We publish an impact tier only where the clean sample is large enough to mean something. This indicator does not clear that floor, so it carries no tier — rather than a made-up one. Why some releases carry no tier.

No consensus, and why
No consensus shown — we don’t license survey estimates. The “expected” figure on a commercial calendar is a survey of economists sold by a data vendor. It is not a government work, there is no public-domain source for it, and we would rather say so than print an empty column. There are no prediction-market odds here either, for the same licensing reason.
