Daily Market Report:

April 25

Volatility and uncertainty characterized financial markets in March. For example, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note started the month at 4.21%, fell to 4.12%, then rose to 4.40%, but finished the month near where it began at 4.21%. Why? Inflation reacceleration worries offset economic growth concerns. Regarding growth, a softer-than-expected rebound in consumer spending in February did not make up for the slump in consumer spending in January. Consequently, first quarter GDP growth may register an annualized rate between 1% and 2%, the softest quarterly reading in three years. Sluggish growth estimates pushed down U.S. Treasury yields. However, more persistent price pressures pushed yields up, or at least kept yields higher than they otherwise might have been. The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index registered a 0.4% rise in February, the fastest one-month increase in core inflation in over a year. Tariffs add upside risk to inflation in the near term and will impact growth prospects overall.
