The market is reacting negatively this morning to extremely poor ISM manufacturing data.
Here’s the TLDR:
Demand fell, inventories rose (due to unsold stock), and prices *rose* (due to labor and shipping costs). In essence, this is stagflation (higher prices in a stagnant or slowing economy).
The Fed’s worst nightmare.
Will lowering rates help much James?
