There are also worries that the Federal Reserve will need to reverse from its easing cycle and begin to hike rates in order to keep inflationary pressures in check, and that has lifted slowdown angst as well. Additionally, firms may not be able to pass on higher fuel charges to stretched consumers, and that could have adverse impacts to margins and hiring, serving to cloud the outlook for overall transactions and capital expenditures. The \u201cYes\u201d would pay out $1.00 if there are two consecutive quarters of annualized declines in the final reads of US gross domestic product, which constitute a technical recession.
