Northern Trust US Economic Outlook:
Slower for Longer
| |
Macroeconomic news has been front and center. Signs of cooling inflation have sparked market rallies, while investors are hanging on every word from the Fed. The sensitivity is well-placed: the end of the Fed’s tightening cycle is in sight, and fear of recession is pervasive.
As discussed in our global Annual Outlook for 2023, no economy is facing a promising year ahead. Balancing the objectives of fighting inflation while maintaining employment and output will be a universal challenge. The U.S. still has a path to achieving a soft landing, but it will not be a banner year. The outlook is for a slow, unsteady year, with inflation still elevated and moderate job losses likely.
U.S. workers and consumers have shown great resiliency throughout the shocks of COVID, an energy crunch, geopolitical uncertainty and high inflation. Reasons for pessimism have always been close at hand, but growth has prevailed. We hope to see that same spirit continue in the year ahead.

Bank of America Market Minute | |
Equities had an impressive run last week, with the S&P 500 recording not only its best week since June but its largest daily gain (last Thursday) since early April 2020. The S&P 500 ended the week 5.9% higher, closing just below 4,000. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 4.1% while the NASDAQ benefitted the most of the major indexes, jumping 8.1%. It was Technology stocks in particular that led the S&P higher—rising 10%, while Communication Services rose 9% on the week. Utilities, Healthcare and Energy lagged the most. The market’s catalyst was the better-than-expected U.S. consumer inflation data showing a 0.4% month-over-month increase, and bringing the year-over-year (YoY) increase to 7.7%. The YoY core measure (excluding food and energy) fell to 6.3% from last month’s 40-year high of 6.6%. While used cars/trucks, apparel and medical services all pulled back, the cost of shelter kept inflation elevated. A preliminary University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index showed consumer sentiment deteriorated more-than-expected, falling to 54.7 from 59.9 in October. Inflation will continue to be in focus this week, courtesy of the Producer Price Index (PPI) and the Import Price Index. The Census Bureau reports on retail sales for October on Wednesday, while the Conference Board will release its Leading Economic Index for October late in the week | |
