TC Economic Insight - The Week Ahead (Mar 11 - 15)

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell reported to U.S. Congress last week. The stock market responded positively to his relatively dovish comments, pushing the S&P 500 Index up to a record close Thursday. Any data suggesting easing inflation will lead to growing expectations of the Fed cutting rates soon and, in turn, higher stock indexes. The next set of key U.S. inflation data will be released on Tuesday (March 12).

While reporting to U.S. Congress last week (Wednesday & Thursday), Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell pointed out that, if inflation signals cooperate, the central bank is not far from the point of cutting interest rates.

The stock market responded positively to Powell’s relatively dovish comments, as the S&P 500 Index marked a record close Thursday.

Any data suggesting easing inflation will lead to growing expectations of the Fed cutting rates soon and, in turn, better market sentiment and higher stock indexes.
