The news events that known to have significant movement

Is any one here can write a list of news events that known to have a significant movement ?
or tell me if my list is correct:

The most important to watch for are Unemployment Reports, and
Interest Rates.

Also high on the list to look for are Consumer
Price Index (CPI), Inflation, and Gross Domestic Product
(GDP).

Less important (meaning less likely to result in the jumps
you are looking for) but still worth keeping an eye on include M2
(Money Supply), Treasury Budget, Producer Price Index (PPI),
Retail Sales, and International Trade.

Thank you

The ability of news events to move the markets varies over time. Check the Daily Trading Signals archive and read what Crazy Cat has written. You'll see phrases like "this one has been very hot lately" or "this one hasn't moved the market as much recently".

Of course, a few reports are just about guaranteed to cause movement on deviation. The NFP comes to mind.
