- US indices launched today's cash trading in mixed moods
- Core PCE eases slightly in October
- Designer Brands (DBI.US) stock slumps on weak financial outlook
Three major Wall Street indices launched today's session in mixed moods as investors digest a slew of economic reports and yesterday's FED Chair Powell dovish comments. Dow Jones fell 0.5%, while S&P500 and Nasdaq rose 0.20% and 0.45% respectively. Powell signaled that it might be appropriate to slow the pace of monetary policy tightening. Money markets are now pricing an over 80% chance of a smaller 50 bps hike in December. On the data front, the core PCI price index eased slightly to 5% in line with expectations, in the latest signal that inflation could be peaking. Personal income and spending both beat expectations, while jobless claims feel more than expected. ISM Manufacturing PMI pointed to the first contraction in factory activity since May of 2020. Now investors’ attention will focus on tomorrow's NFP report.
