Uh-oh. MarketWatch says Dow Jones Newswires sent out embargoed data early

  • US Industrial production headlines were sent early

Bloomberg carrying the headlines (and smirking somewhat I imagine :-D )

More:

  • At least one media organization prematurely released news on Thursday from the Federal Reserve
  • The second early data release from the central bank in the last three months.
  • Dow Jones Newswires released headlines on August industrial production at 9:08 a.m Eastern. The data was scheduled for release at 9:15 a.m.
  • There was no way to tell if human or computer error caused the early release.
