Yesterday\u2019s stock market recovery was driven by the announcement of a one-month delay in implementing tariffs for US automobile manufacturers and this morning\u2019s equity bounce off the lows was triggered by Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick disclosing that duties on nearly all products from Canada and Mexico will likely be postponed. While this shored up investor sentiment, it created increased confusion amongst traders. Indeed, a common question on Wall Street is if trade policy will be draconian. The administration is already feeling pressure to please its constituents, with February layoff announcements soaring to their highest level since July 2020, during the depths of COVID-19. And while tomorrow\u2019s jobs report will provide more evidence of employment conditions, recent indicators have been disappointing, including ADP\u2019s big miss this week amidst unemployment claims trending higher. Furthermore, rising evidence of consumer stress as reported in corporate earnings calls, sentiment surveys and hard figures from economic data prints, such as retail sales as well as personal income and outlays, is worrying the Executive Branch that its aggressive measures of fiscal austerity, trade policy and immigration may weigh on capital markets and the economy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Layoffs Leap to Nearly Five-Year High<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Layoffs surged last month to the highest level since July 2020, as austerity measures to reduce the federal government\u2019s roster weighed on employment conditions. Outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas reported 172,017 dismissals in February, up 245% month over month (m\/m). Discharges were led by the federal government, retail and technology sectors with figures totaling 62,242, 38,956 and 14,554, which collectively represented roughly two-thirds of the total and generated worries of labor market weakness spreading beyond the public sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continuing Unemployment Claims Climb<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A separate report on unemployment claims from the federal government depicted an ongoing deterioration in employment conditions, with both initial and continuing filings moving north again. But the last two weeks produced bifurcated performance in the short-term with initial claims declining to 221,000 for the week ended March 1, missing the median estimate of 235,000 and the previous period\u2019s 242,000. The continuing segment, on the other hand, jumped north to 1.897 million for the seven-day interval completed on February 22, nearly the highest level in 39 months, which would\u2019ve have been eclipsed at over 1.9 million. The number arrived as a surprise considering the projection was just 1.88 million and the prior report came in at 1.855 million. Four-week moving average trends ticked north on both fronts, from 224,000 and 1.863 million to 224,250 and 1.866 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Continuing<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Past performance is not indicative of future results.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stocks Climb from Morning Lows<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Stocks are off their lows as Commerce Secretary Lutnick announces that more tariff alleviation is on the way. But the long end of the yield curve is moving north aggressively, as European differentials incentivize fixed-income positioning across the Atlantic. Rates have been jumping in the continent as the region\u2019s largest economy agreed to amplify fiscal limits to enable an increase in defense spending. The proposals to strengthen the EU\u2019s military might in light of a shifting world order and rising pressure to provide more support to Kyiv are driving up the cost of duration across world economies. Here in the US, the development is leading to a much weaker dollar amidst a heavier long end, with the Dollar Index down 31 basis points (bps) and the 2- and 10-year Treasury maturities changing hands at 4.00% and 4.33% in bear-steepening fashion, unchanged on the former but 5 bps taller on the latter. The greenback is depreciating relative to all of its major counterparts, including the euro, pound sterling, franc, yen, yuan, loonie and Aussie tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Domestic equity benchmarks have bounced strongly and are near their highs of the day as the S&P 500 Index succeeds in remaining above its 200-day moving average yet again. Still the major indices are all red at the moment with the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500, Russell 2000 and Dow Jones Industrial gauges losing 1.2%,0.9%, 0.6% and 0.3%. Sectoral breadth is deeply negative with just the materials segment gaining out of the 11 majors; it\u2019s up 0.2%. Leading the laggards south are real estate, utilities and technology; those components are losing 2%, 1.6% and 1.3%. In commodities, price action is tilted to the downside with lumber, crude oil and gold lower by 0.7%, 0.6% and 0.1% but copper and silver are higher by 0.8% and 0.2%. Copper is continuing its run on yesterday\u2019s news that the commodity may face 25% import tariffs, providing support to the materials equity sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International Roundup<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Europe Cuts Rates as Retail Sales Languish<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The European Central Bank (ECB) today cut its key rate 25 bps to 2.5%, an expected change that the organization believes is making monetary policy \u201cmeaningful less restrictive.\u201d The action comes after the area\u2019s latest inflation print arrived at 2.4% for February, a higher-than-anticipated reading but down from January. The ECB today also noted that disinflation is on track, although domestic price pressures are still high. The institution also stated that lending is becoming less expensive and loan growth is increasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a related matter, retail sales in the euro area continued to languish during the first month of this year on both m\/m and year-over-year (y\/y) bases. Sales, which are adjusted for inflation, climbed only 1.5% y\/y but sank 0.3% m\/m, weakening from December\u2019s 2% increase relative to the year-ago period and flat compared to November. The January results were also weaker than the analyst consensus forecasts for y\/y and m\/m prints of 1.9% and 0.1%. Relative to December, sales in the food, drinks, and tobacco category climbed 0.6% but failed to offset the 0.7% decline of the non-food products (except automotive fuel) group and the 0.3% drop of fuel transactions at specialized stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia Building Permits Jump<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Demand for apartments in Australia drove a 6.3% m\/m increase in building permits in January, up from the 1.7% gain in the preceding month, but the y\/y gain of 9.1% eased slightly from December\u2019s 10.1% growth, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Both January metrics significantly surpassed analysts\u2019 expectation for a 0.1% m\/m decline and a y\/y gain of 5.60%. The m\\m result was driven by a 12.7% jump in private sector dwellings excluding houses while the private sector houses category climbed only 1.1%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

South Korea Inflation Slows<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Inflation in South Korea eased last month from January\u2019s pace with the Consumer Price Index arriving at 2% y\/y and 0.3% m\/m, a decline from 2.2% and 0.7%. January\u2019s y\/y result matched the analyst consensus expectation, but the m\/m metric was slightly higher than the 0.2% forecast. On a y\/y basis, transportation costs rose 2.2% followed by a 2.1% gain in education expenses and a 2% northward change in food and non-alcoholic beverages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
