Consumer sentiment in March declined from Feb, Chicago purchasing mgrs. index weaker than forecasts. Consumers becoming a little nervous recently worrying about their bank and their savings. Media pushing that scenario, good readers if there is a crisis and media never hesitates to beat the drum.
The focus now is what will the Fed do in a month when the FOMC meets? Way too early to speculate but that is what is occurring with analysts, Fed officials, investors, money managers and traders. Between now and the meeting more inflation releases, more economic data, and more time for more bank issues to fade or increase. After two weeks and regulators all over banks the likelihood of another bank shock isn’t likely, the focus will turn to how much constriction of credit will occur. Less credit, higher rates; if credit becomes so restrictive the economy suffers, jobs are lost, consumers stop buying the Fed will have to curtail its rapid rate increases. If fears subside and upcoming inflation reports, CPI and PPI, continue to ease the Fed won’t move.
