MACRO
This week in macro, investors are waiting for Wednesday's Core CPI numbers for August. PPI and initial jobless claims will be released on Thursday.
Last week, just before the blackout began in the lead-up to the FOMC September 17-18th rate decision meeting, investors also got word from New York Fed President John Williams Friday that it is time to cut rates.
Speaking toward the Council on Foreign Relations, Williams said the economy is balanced, and inflation is tracking lower, and "it is now appropriate to dial down the degree of restrictiveness in the stance of policy by reducing the target range for the federal funds rate."
Last Friday, the economy added 142k nonfarm payrolls last week, and the Unemployment rate landed at 4.2% in August, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Payrolls were below expected by 20k, but fit the narrative of softening labor in the U.S. that investors have come to expect.
Tonight is the first debate between Former President Trump and Vice President Harris, we will watch it live somewhere on moomoo.
