Good MorningEquity markets remained relatively steady on Wednesday, following the release of the CPI report and news of progress in trade negotiations. The CPI was cooler than expected, alleviating some but not all fears that tariffs would accelerate inflation. The risk is that the tariff impact isn't fully priced into the economy, and subsequent data will reflect it. The takeaway is that the FOMC is no closer to cutting rates than before the release, although the White House is sure to press for it.
Regarding the trade negotiations, the news is that a framework for a deal has been made and is to be approved by Trump and Xi. The caveat is that a framework isn't a deal, and there is still a long way to go before the endgame. Until then, Commerce Secretary Lutnick says there will be no further changes to tariffs on China, providing some stability to the outlook. Featured: Get Ahead with This Free Report! (Ad)
