I simply don't have the time to read, summarize, and post all these articles (well, BumRushDaShow did the ADP one -- see link above). But some people are interested in them. Two of them (retail sales and PPI) are government reports, and two of them (Private payrolls ADP and Consumer Confidence) are non-government.

UPDATE: BumRushDaShow now has OP postings with summaries in Latest Breaking News for all of the above
