Good MorningThis week could be tense for markets. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) report is due Tuesday, followed by other critical economic data on Thursday and Friday.
CPI Report Impact: Even if inflation runs hotter than expected, the market may interpret this as increasing the chances of a Fed rate cut. That’s because persistently high inflation is beginning to weigh on labor demand and consumer health. If the Fed waits too long to act, it risks a deeper, longer economic contraction.
Retail Sales in Focus: Retail sales data could be even more influential. Since the U.S. economy relies heavily on consumer spending, any signs of weakness could raise recession concerns. However, as with inflation data, soft numbers might also boost hopes for more aggressive rate cuts, potentially supporting equities. Featured: Crypto bros: Meet your replacement (Ad)
