Episode notes
US Growth Strong but Inflation Rises
- The US economy shows resilient growth based on leading indicators, despite fading prospects of a disinflationary boom.
- Inflation has reversed course, particularly core services inflation, challenging the Federal Reserve's outlook and market optimism.
Corporate Sector Financial Stability
- Unlike past recessions, today's corporate sector shows financial surplus and stable interest expenses despite rate hikes.
- These factors mitigate the risk and depth of a potential recession following the inverted yield curve signal.
Negative Equity Supply Supports Market
- Net equity supply has been negative for three years, reducing stock dilution and supporting investor interest.
- Lower supply alongside institutional rebalancing could help stabilize markets amid uncertainty.
