Daily Monitor Global
- The Homebase jobs data signal March strength; we expect 225K headline payrolls and 175K private…
- ...But the NFIB survey’s hiring intentions measure points to much weaker numbers in Q2.
- Low snow cover likely boosted hours worked and depressed AHE, but the Fed only cares about the ECI.
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- The plunge in ISM services prices paid to a four-year low points to much slower core services inflation.
- Light vehicle sales slumped in Q1, dragging on overall consumption growth.
- Initial jobless claims likely rose modestly last week, but a sharp increase is likely in the coming months.
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- Expect little change in the ISM services index today; either way, it’s a poor guide to services spending.
- The ADP employment report is hopelessly unreliable; take it seriously at your peril.
- The JOLTS quit rate is consistent with much weaker wage growth across the spring and summer, at least.
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- The JOLTS quit rate flagged the surge in wages during the Great Rehiring. It now points to a sharp slowdown.
- Vehicle sales were probably little changed in March, suggesting a drag on Q1 consumption growth.
- A nascent recovery in manufacturing is finding its feet, but core goods prices look set to continue falling.
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- Expect a 0.3% core PCE, but surprises are possible; it’s impossible to replicate all the BEA’s methods.
- Quarterly real consumption growth looks on course for a meaningful slowdown in Q1.
- Governor Waller is in no rush to ease, but he is ignoring clear warning signs in the labor market numbers.
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- Easter data distortions ahead; lower claims numbers today will likely reflect tricky seasonal adjustment.
- Core durable goods orders are very likely to drop when Easter is in March, then rebound in April.
- We expect a pick-up in the March Chicago PMI, and look out for revisions to the Michigan sentiment data.
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- Low income households now have a much smaller stock of real liquid assets than before Covid…
- The shortage of cash will crimp spending and push up delinquency rates on consumer credit instruments.
- Falling capex shipments point to an outright decline in Q1 equipment investment; Q2 perhaps a bit better?
Ian Shepherdson (Chief Economist, Chairman and Founder)US
- Core durable goods orders likely remained weak in February, despite mild weather.
- Equipment investment likely rose in Q1 due to a rebound in heavy truck sales, but a full-year drop is still a solid bet.
- The Conference Board’s confidence index likely is still consistent with steady spending growth in March.
