Good MorningEquity markets resumed their downward movement on Thursday after a weaker-than-expected GDP reading. The first estimate for Q1 GDP came in at 1.6%, well below the consensus forecast. The weak data renewed fear of slowing growth and a possible recession, cutting more than 1.0% off the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 before the open. However, the market began to recover by the end of the session and closed the day off of the low.
Where the market goes next will come down to data released today. The PCE price index is due and expected to be hot. A hot read will keep the FOMC's foot on the economic brake, increasing the odds of a recession. However, the FOMC's policy is sufficiently tight. It can act to stave off recession, given the inflation data cooperates. Because the economy is still growing, the S&P could still move higher.
The risk now is stagflation. The Fed can stave off a recession, but if it is forced to cut rates sooner than necessary to fight inflation to fight recession instead, inflation will accelerate and remain a problem. Featured: Great Crypto Bull (Weiss Ratings)
