first one that we got to pay attention
to coming up uh has to do with
jobs we're gonna get a jobs report on
april 1st it's the first friday of the
month which is usually when we get a
jobs report unless of course we had a
short month prior to that then they
kicked the jobs report back a week but
this month we will have the jobs report
on april 1st what you're looking here or
for here is the month over month change
in pay for people higher pay for people
on a month over month change is a good
thing but not good in terms of the
potential for an inflationary spiral
last month this came in at a month over
month change of absolutely zero that his
wages were flat for the month of
february what about march we'll see so
write that one down april 1st the next
one
that you want to pick
that you want to track comes out uh and
it should probably i'll go in order from
now on the next one that you should
track is actually on march 28th and this
is retail inventories that is actually a
monday release it comes out monday at 8
30 a.m eastern time and you'll have
wholesale inventories at the same time
generally what we're expecting here is
to see a slight increase in wholesale
inventories this is the amount of
product that wholesalers have and we're
seeing sort of this kathy woody and
style of increase of inventories
partially because a more inventories are
in transit and partially because b
maybe we're starting to see a backlog of
inventories
in certain sectors that could eventually
lead to deflationary pressures we'll see
retail inventories are expected to come
in lower than last month at one point
four percent huge deviation in either of
these are going to be implications for
inflation higher inventories less
inflation lower inventories more
inflation
then uh we're going to be seeing jolts
job openings we expect this to come in
strong march 29th at 10 a.m eastern time
all times from now on will be eastern
we're expecting 11 million job openings
which is ridiculous
uh there i'm gonna skip mortgages and
real estate because really real estate
is an entirely different video that we
should be talking about and as mortgage
rates go up we are going to see downward
pressure on real estate prices how much
they come down will likely be uh
limited just based on the amount of
demand that is pent up but we're going
to focus on stocks here and the big one
is going to be the gdp report for the
first quarter
this is actually going to be a big day
and it comes out march 30th which is
kind of weird because the quarter is not
technically over yet but uh
annualized gdp comes out
and we're expecting this to come in at
seven percent uh as an annualized rate
of gdp change so we'll keep an eye on
how our gdp growth is moving and the
federal reserve of course is expecting
gdp to fall as low as 2.9 by the end of
the year the more gdp declines the more
concerns will rise about a potential
recession and of course in a recession
the last thing you want to own are
stocks so anything that indicates the
potential of a recession coming is is
definitely a problem
we're going to get a pce which is the
personal consumption expenditures
measure this is the federal reserve's
measure of inflation
this in my opinion not so terribly
important since generally most uh
most of the stock market seems to react
to cpi though this will come out on the
31st
then on the first as i mentioned we'll
have
the employment reading we'll also two
days prior to the first get an adp
employment report that employment report
is the private payrolls changes it is a
private company that does this it
usually gives you a little bit of a
heads up in terms of what you might
expect to see in the official
unemployment report that friday but
generally the one people are going to
focus on is friday april 1. the one that
comes out at
8 15 a.m eastern time on uh wednesday is
generally generally has less of an
impact on the market
then
the next thing that we're going to
probably be paying attention to before
we get to cpi which comes out soon soon
will probably have to do with the ism
services index the reason we're going to
be looking at this which comes out on
april 5th
is because we believe that if inflation
in goods goes down one of the things
that could keep inflation going would be
inflation and services and so a more
booming services economy could actually
help keep inflation higher which would
of course not be good for the market so
we'll keep an eye on that expectation is
58 and the number over 50 is growth that
comes out april 5th at 10 a.m eastern
time
then we get cpi we're going to be
looking for that cpi month over month
information survey estimates are not in
yet for april or for march rather but
this is the cpi report that is probably
going to be the worst one that we've
seen honestly like ever this could end
up being one of the peak reports because
it's after the war has begun uh it
should fully reflect a full month of
high gasoline prices in in
at the pumps remember that cpi likes to
divide a month into three equal segments
take an average price of those three
snapshots average it together and then
you get an estimate for energy style
inflation well remember the invasion
into ukraine happened february 24th so
you're really only getting a ladder
snapshot there so in other words you're
expecting higher inflation in that march
report especially food and commodity
prices right
wheat
neon input cost some of these input
costs are going to show up in producer
price inflation but those could trickle
into consumer price inflation speaking
of which though producer price inflation
will be able to analyze that report it's
going to be a busy week the very next
day on april 13th and what you're
looking for in both these reports is
going to be the month over month change
how how ugly was inflation from this war
did we go from point eight percent to
one percent and if you think about if we
went from point eight percent to one
percent all you have to do to annualize
it to get sort of an annualized speed as
you multiply it by twelve so we get a
one percent read on a month over month
that's an annualized rate of 12
inflation that's gonna get scary and
that'll that'll get priced in the market
so you'll you'll see some pain here we
don't actually have the federal reserve
in april we uh we won't be hearing from
the fed until the beginning of
may thank goodness
we are going to get uh consumer uh sort
of the preliminary read on consumer
sentiment and inflation expectations you
get this twice a month the preliminary
in the final we'll get the preliminary
on april 14th that'll come out at 10 a.m
eastern time
then we'll get some real estate
statistics around the 21st and 22nd
but more important i personally think is
going to be that consumer confidence
figure that we'll get by april 26th and
we want to see some confidence start
getting restored and then we'll be at
inventories again by the end of april on
april 27th at 8 30 a.m but no big fed
events planned for april if we got
anything from the fed it would be a
shocker and and think about if we got
any kind of shocker from the fed it
would essentially be the equivalent of a
rug poll that would be very very bad for
markets i mean you could see a dow jones
down 10 day very quickly we don't
actually expect that i would say the
real big ones to pay attention to for
april coming up here jobs report we want
to see wage price spiral or no so far
the answer has been no cpi how bad is
that month over month going to be ppi
producer price inflation how bad is that
month over month going to be and
and then of course expectations are
always very important to measure what's
happening with inflation expectations
you really want to watch that that's a
big deal for the federal reserve
inventories in my opinion do matter as
well because they could be a little bit
of a leading indicator in terms of what
you might expect for future inflation so
these are some of our big catalyst dates
coming up for april we also though and
this is important to consider have a tax
filing deadline mid-april and oftentimes
during tax filing time you tend to have
less buying pressure and potentially
more selling pressure because people
need money to pay their tax bill unless
of course they go on extension although
even though technically if they go on
extension they still have to make their
payment some people might choose to pay
the penalty rate about six percent
annualized per year check that with your
cpa
but anyway uh
there is a potential for a lack of
buying pressure and increased selling
pressure in the middle of the month
which unfortunately is going to be right
around the time of cpi so you could end
up seeing a rough period of time
somewhere between that april 8th period
maybe april 15th just slightly before
and after that cpi data though usually
most of your pain tends to come before
catalyst events so if i had to look at a
calendar and and sort of guess
i would say that we're somewhat i'm not
expecting drama coming out of the jobs
report on april 1st i think and this
week we had a lot of fed speak which it
was really supposed to be a quiet week
this week i would say the week of the
28th to april 1st should be relatively
benign especially if we get a good jobs
report on the first which i expect we
will then i'll expect that between the
fourth and the eighth things will also
be pretty relaxed so we could be setting
up for a nice potential two-week rally
fingers crossed though you're going to
start getting some fears priced in for
high inflation probably around the 7th
or 8th when we start thinking about oh
well the cpi report comes out on the
12th next week which would be tuesday
april 12th and uh yeah and then ppi the
very next day
yeah people are going to want to wait
for that because it'll send signals to
the market about what the federal
reserve should do if let's just say
inflation came in at some ridiculous
level so ridiculously high and that
inflation was broad-based where it
wasn't just isolated to energies or
commodities related to war then that's a
sign that inflation is getting
entrenched and the fed might have to
come out and pull a dirty on us that is
either a dirty rug pool unexpectedly or
just straight up in our face on their
next fomc meeting which again is not
until the beginning of may so goodbye j
pal take a month off we don't want to
