U.S. STOCK FUTURES PARE GAINS SLIGHTLY AFTER PCE
U.S. equity index futures are higher on the day, though they have pared gains just a bit, in the wake of the release of the latest Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, which is considered to be the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of inflation.
E-mini S&P 500 futures EScv1 are gaining around 0.7%. The futures were up around 0.8% just before the numbers came out.
The June headline PCE numbers on both a month-over-month and year-over-year basis were in-line with estimates. The core PCE index on numbers on a month-over-month basis and year-over-year basis were both above the Reuters Poll numbers.
June personal income month-over-month was below the estimate. June adjusted consumption was in-line with the expectation:
According to the CME's FedWatch Tool, market expectations for what the Fed may do next week at its July 30-31 meeting have not moved. There is around a 93% chance that the FOMC sits on its hands and leaves rates unchanged. The chance that the Fed cuts rates by 25 basis points (bps) is 7%.
Looking out further into 2024, the FedWatch Tool is still showing a bias for rates to tick down by 25 bps in September, and then again in November and December. The confidence in the November and December cuts has increased slightly from just before the data came out.
The U.S. 10-Year Treasury Yield US10YT=RR is now around 4.22%. It was around 4.25% just before the numbers came out. The yield ended Thursday around 4.26%.
A majority of S&P 500 sector SPDR ETFs are higher in premarket trade with tech XLK.P, up about 1.5%, posting the biggest rise.
The SPDR S&P regional banking ETF KRE.P is up around 0.8%.
Regarding the data, Brian Jacobsen, Chief Economist at Annex Wealth Management in Brookfield, Wisconsin, said:
"Everybody's waiting to find out if the Fed is going to be confident enough to cut. If this doesn't make the Fed confident enough, nothing will."
Jacobsen added, "The economy is slowing and if they don't cut it could screech to a halt. They do have some time because certainly there's still some economic momentum but that economic momentum is fading fast."
The July U Mich sentiment final read is due at 1000 ET (1400 GMT). The estimate is 66 vs 66 last month.
Here is a premarket snapshot from about 853 ET (1253 GMT):
