Good MorningEquity markets eked out small gains on Wednesday after the CPI report came in as expected. The report shows that consumer-level inflation is cooling in alignment with the outlook for FOMC rate cuts, but not so quickly that it raises the risk of recession. The takeaway is that the US economy is on track for a shift that should reinvigorate activity, but risks remain. Among them is the possibility that lower rates will reinvigorate inflation and keep the FOMC from cutting quickly.
The next major hurdle for the market is today. The combination of retail sales data and Walmart results will give a clear indication of spending habits and help the market assess the recession risks. So long as consumer spending is solid, the US economy is unlikely to experience an economic contraction, although slowing is not out of the question. An environment of lower but still high interest rates and persistent inflation could easily lead to a period of stagflation. Featured: Trump Just Gave the Green Light to Rewrite Social Security?
