[Tree] Consumer stress amid interest rate holding pattern

Version 0.21 (2024-05-12 20:55:57.274000)

updates: The volume of requests for legal assistance over financial issues remains well below long-term averages, according to a report from LegalShield. This could be a favorable sign for the economy and might have repercussions for the 2024 presidential election. LegalShield's analysis suggests that if consumer legal stress in battleground states remains low, it could indicate favorable results for incumbents, including President Biden.

updates: The recent U.S. jobs data suggests the employment sector may be showing signs of cooling. Rannella Billy-Ochieng’, Senior Economist at TD, discusses the implications for the U.S. economy. The U.S. economy is expected to slow down as the impact of monetary tightening makes its way into different sectors. The job market has shown signs of slowing, with significant decreases in job gains and a decrease in the breadth of hiring among firms. The Federal Reserve is closely monitoring these trends and needs to see material slowing in the labor market and considerable wage growth before declaring victory on the inflation front. Inflation has been persistently sticky, with services inflation and shelter inflation being key culprits. The Fed remains committed to cooling inflation and will continue to raise interest rates. While a recession is not forecasted, a broad slowdown in growth is expected. Risks to the forecast include persistent inflation, late cycle factors, and issues with confidence.
