Soft September sets for stage for more consumer weakness in Q4.
- We look for a 0.22% rise in the September core PCE deflator, which would keep the inflation rate at 2.9%...
- ...This will enable FOMC participants to lower their Q4 forecast, clearing the path for easing policy again.
- Initial claims plunged because seasonal adjustment has gone amiss; labor market slack is still rising.
- ADP’s numbers have considerably understated the initial official estimates of private payrolls this year.
- Reliable surveys suggest an initial private print of 75K-to-100K in November, still too soft for comfort.
- A raft of indicators point to consumer weakness in Q4. We think spending will rise by only around ½%.
- Lower immigration, AI, tariffs and federal job cuts have potential to lift the natural unemployment rate...
- ...But firms are filling openings more easily and plan to slow wage growth, pointing to excess unemployment.
- No signs of excessive unemployment by state or by sector, indicative of a still-low equilibrium rate.
Core goods inflation likely to retreat in H1 2026.
- Investors see a near-90% chance of the FOMC easing next week, back to levels before October’s meeting.
- Sometimes, the Chair moves markets during the blackout via the WSJ, but that seems unlikely now.
- Manufacturing payrolls have fallen materially in 2025, but likely aren’t a canary in the coalmine this time.
