There are no discernable signs of economic stress...yet, bu
tconsumers are concerned about wages and job security. The question
begging to be asked: When is the Fed going to step in (Fed purview:
Employment and price stability...AND by extension, consumer
confidence). How will markets react to Liberation Day (4/2)?
Corporate buy backs will resume 3rd week of April. Markets pulled
back on Friday (mimicking four similar pull backs last year.) Make
no changes just yet; wait for the next market bounce. Can
corporations pass along the expense of increased tariffs? When will
the Fed act? Goldman is cutting its earnings expectations for 2025,
and valuations are beginning to fall. Lance explains the relevance
of Consumer Confidence to PCE, which contributes 70% of GDP. A
decline in Consumer Confidence results in a decline in PCE...and
earnings. Turmoil in the markets: Don't panic; this, too, shall
pass. Tariffs are a tax corporations pay; consumer choice is a big
factor: choose to not buy, or purchase for less elsewhere. Market
declines have nothing to do with tariffs; tariffs are not a black
swan event. Lance shares about the Roberts' blended family, and how
he's making his kids independent in the face of a report showing
50% of parents are supporting their adult children in some
fashion.
