Earnings Biting, GDP Lower in Q1 | Wall Street Today
Indexs fell Thursday after harsh earnings reactions. Overall, there was more green than red out there, but by the numbers after the close, the $S&P 500 Index traded -0.60%, the $Dow Jones Industrial Average fell about 0.86%, and the $Nasdaq Composite Index fell 1.08%.
By direction, 4900 equities declined while 8200 advanced, despite index movement, more equities were climbing.
MACRO
Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams said on Thursday that the current monetary policy stance is restrictive enough to bring inflation down to a 2% annual pace by next year without a meaningful slowdown in the economy or an increase in the unemployment rate.
"The behavior of the economy over the past year provides ample evidence that monetary policy is restrictive in a way that helps us achieve our goals," Williams said to the Economic Club of New York.
In macro Thursday, revised GDP numbers for Q1 showed the U.S. economy grew at a slower 1.3% annual pace in the first three months of the year, largely due to softer consumer spending. The numbers were revised down from a previous 1.6%. It was the smallest increase in twpo years, and one of the largest drivers of the economy, consumer spending, fell to 2% growth from a .5% figure last month.
Wednesday, the Fed Beige book summarized the economic activity across each Federal Reserve Region. INvestors still await the Personal Consumption Index inflation gauge on Friday. In market-related news, the SEC implemented a "T+1" settlement structure Tuesday, meaning stocks and equity trades will settle the day after they are made, after sitting at two days settlement since 2017, and three days before.
Last week the FOMC meeting minutes from the April 30-May 1 meeting showed that members felt uncertainty in the possibility that "high interest rates may have smaller effects than in the past." Some members said they would be willing to raise rates.
The $U.S. 2-Year Treasury Notes Yield (US2Y.BD)$ climbed to 4.93, and the $U.S. 10-Year Treasury Notes Yield (US10Y.BD)$ 4.56.
