President Donald Trump in recent days has dismissed fears of a recession and brushed aside the stock market sell-off, going so far as to say, “You can’t really watch the stock market."

Good MorningEquity markets went on a wild ride Tuesday, with the S&P 500 falling more than 1.0% in early trading and then bouncing back to close well off of the day's low. The move was driven by increased tariff tension caused by new tariffs on Canadian goods. However, a late-day reprieve was granted when Ontario's minister suspended planned electric tariffs in exchange for renewed trade talks.
The CPI report will drive Wednesday's action. The February reading of consumer inflation is expected to show inflation moderating compared to the prior month but still high relative to targets. The market needs a Goldilocks number in order to regain traction, not too hot nor too cold, so it doesn't induce fear of higher interest rates or a recession. If not, the sell-off in equity markets could resume and take the S&P 500 down another few hundred basis points. Featured: Trump’s Secret Weapon (American Alternative)
