UPDATED

MarketWatch updates the schedule throughout the week. Check their site for revisions.

Don't be surprised if the schedule changes next Thursday, due to the day of mourning for Jimmy Carter.

Edited to add: federal offices in downtown DC will be closed on Tuesday, January 7, too. Carter's casket arrives at JB Andrews that morning. It will be taken from there to the Navy Memorial on Pennsylvania Avenue and then on to the Capitol. Whether this has any effect on the release of the BLS JOLTS report, I do not know. I expect it will go off on time.
